Prediction

The Thunder are continuing to surprise in the West, as they have won 8 of their last 10 games and currently sit 8th in the conference, and only a game and a half back from the 5th place Clippers.

It is all to play for for both of these teams, to secure playoff spots and possibly avoid the play-in game completely.

Game day in DTLA!

Losing Paul George on Tuesday night was a big blow for the Clippers. It obviously hurt even more in a losing effort but more importantly, he will be out for possibly rest of the regular season.

This was good news, as it is possible he returns for the playoffs but it isn’t ideal to lose one of your best players at this point in the season.

Either way, it will be up to Kawhi Leonard, Russell Westbrook and company to carry the load and get a big win tonight in Crypto.

I think they get the job done but I love the Thunder to cover yet again. I backed them Tuesday and I am backing them again.

Shai and the boys are hungry and playing fearless basketball. I think they have a chance to win outright yet again but I am taking the points for the safety.

Player Prop of the Game

Jalen Williams o9.5 Rebounds+Assists (-117) Bovada

I backed Williams and his RA in the matchup on Tuesday and I am going straight back tonight.

Williams has 10+ Rebounds+Assists in 5 straight games and 9 of his last 10 games.

The talented rookie has become an invaluable player for this Thunder team, playing 30+ minutes every game and doing a bit of everything.

For a bonus, I love his 20+ points for fantastic plus money value. Williams has 20+ points in 6 of his last 9 games.

All over the Rook tonight to be awesome yet again.

Bonus: Williams 20+ points (+240)
