Oklahoma City Thunder Boast 8-2 Record

Oklahoma City come into this matchup riding a four-game win streak that has improved their record to 8-2.

The Thunder opened the season with a four-game winning run, only to then drop back-to-back games on the road.

They were beaten 120-96 in Dallas, before heading to Houston for a 119-98 loss at the hands of the Rockets.

Oklahoma City have rebounded with back-to-back wins against Cleveland though, beating the Cavaliers 117-112 on the road and 124-116 on the road.

The Thunder then made it four-in-a-row as they beat Memphis 128-97 on the road, and Washington 114-75 at home.

Portland Trail Blazers Lost Back-To-Back Games

Portland come into this game with a 6-3 record, but having now lost back-to-back games.

The Trail Blazers opened with a three-game win streak that included a 136-129 victory when they visited the Los Angeles Lakers.

That run was ended by a 124-103 loss to Memphis, but they bounced back to win the next three.

Portland’s successes all came on the road as they were victorious in Utah, 112-90, Denver, 118-110, and Phoenix, 132-119.

However, the Trail Blazers have faltered in recent days, following up a 124-118 defeat the Los Angeles Lakers with a 125-103 home loss to San Antonio.

Verdict

Oklahoma City’s injury report remains lengthy, but the Thunder continue to overcome that and win games.

They have momentum and a great recent track record against the Trail Blazers, so we are backing the visitors to deliver in this one.
