Prediction published on 3/22/24, 5:16 AM  by Tyler Doty | Modified on 3/22/24 at 7:53 AM in NBA Picks

The Raptors welcome the Thunder to Scotiabank Arena. The hosts are going through a tumultuous season with a more than disappointing record of 23 wins to 46 losses, including an ongoing run of 8 consecutive setbacks. The situation was further complicated by the departure of key players such as Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby during the season. These departures profoundly affected the team and its balance, leaving the Raptors in a period of sporting turbulence. The franchise must now find solutions to overcome this crisis and take up the challenge of rebuilding itself to regain its place among the league's competitive teams in the future.

The Thunder enjoyed an exceptional season, buoyed by the remarkable performances of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. With an impressive record of 47 wins to 20 losses, the team is proudly in first place in the Western Conference. These results are all the more impressive given that the Thunder have won 6 of their last 7 games, confirming their current excellent form. OKC is having a memorable season and is establishing itself as a serious playoff contender.
