Oklahoma travels to face New York in this inter-conference NBA clash this evening. The Thunder remain top of Western Conference standings at 48–15 on the season, while the Knicks are third in the East at 40–22. Here is our prediction.
The Oklahoma City Thunder continued their stellar run this season against the Chicago Bulls yesterday evening, edging the Bulls 116–108. That victory moved them to 48–15 – the best record in the Western Conference – and marked their sixth win in seven games.
Notably, Mark Daigneault's side comes into this fixture on a chart-topping 28–3 away record this season. They have won five of their last six away games. However, they will be without six players due to injuries, including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who averages the second-highest points per game (33.3) in the league this season.
The New York Knicks eased past the Toronto Raptors 111–95 in their most recent outing to extend their winning streak to three games. That result also saw them rack up their fifth win in six games overall.
The Knicks will also be looking to bring their seven-game losing run against the Oklahoma City Thunder at Madison Square Garden to an end. They are 23–8 at the venue this season.
