The Thunder host the Nuggets in Game 2 of their Western Conference Semifinals series tonight. The Nuggets pulled off a late comeback to steal Game 1 on the road, putting the pressure squarely on the Thunder to even the series at home.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and his teammates will look to respond in front of their home crowd, while Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets aim to seize full control before heading back to Denver.

The Thunder suffered a surprising late-game collapse in the series opener, falling to the Nuggets. However, I expect them to respond with a dominant performance tonight.
Oklahoma City, facing a must-win situation at home, should come out with more urgency and intensity.
The Thunder have been exceptional on their home floor this season, boasting a 31-14-1 record against the spread (ATS) as a home favorite.
Pick: Oklahoma City Thunder -11.5
Wiggins is well-positioned to clear this modest points total tonight.
As one of the key pieces in the Thunder's deep rotation, he's been a reliable contributor throughout the playoffs, cashing this prop in four of his five postseason appearances so far.
According to the Action Pro Report, Wiggins is projected to score 7.4 points tonight, providing a solid cushion over this line.
Pick: Aaron Wiggins Over 3.5 Points
Braun has emerged as a critical player for the Nuggets in these playoffs.
Braun's significant playoff minutes (averaging 39.5 per game) give him plenty of scoring opportunities, and he's responded by averaging 12.4 points per game in the postseason, making this over a promising bet.
Pick: Christian Braun Over 11.5 Points
