Goodnight, Thunder fans 😴
On a Wednesday day in the NBA where up to eight games will be played, Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs will face each other in a duel, a priori, very unequal. However, it will be very important for the home team to win. The stars of the game will be Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Victor Wembanyama.
The Spurs will be the visitors in a game they come into with no aspirations in the Western Conference standings, not even to move down in the draft lottery. Although they have won their last game and are on a decent run of five wins in their last 10 games, the Texas franchise remains in last place with a record of 20-59.
On the other hand, OKC, which is 3rd in the West with a 54-25 record, does have a lot at stake. The Thunder must win in order to take advantage of the game between Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves, the two leaders of their Conference standings, both with 55-24. One of the two franchises will lose, so it's a great opportunity for Oklahoma.
