The Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs meet for the fifth time so far this season on Wednesday evening—a scheduling quirk due to an extra meeting in the NBA Cup Semifinal—and it comes at a good time for the Thunder. OKC is coming off a couple of solid wins: a dominant victory against the Nuggets in Denver on Sunday and a blowout at home last night against the Orlando Magic. Now, the Thunder is hoping for a second win against the Spurs after losing the first three matchups.
Just a couple of weeks ago, the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in Oklahoma City for the third time in less than two weeks. The sky was falling in OKC, and the Spurs were being crowned the new favorite to win the 2026 Finals. At least that’s what a lot of national media wanted you to believe.

I think Mark Daigneault has some adjustments up his sleeve, and as for the Thunder’s defense, I would expect them to be the aggressor tonight. I’m taking OKC not only to win, but to cover the spread in the process.
