Thunder vs Kings NBA Preview, Predictions
The total for this game originally opened at 226.5 somehow, and I was asleep at the wheel.
The Thunder defense is its usual awesome self, but mostly in transition and by creating turnovers.
The Thunder rank No. 5 in halfcourt defense, which is elite, but not the best in the world.
Meanwhile, Lu Dort is questionable for this one with an injury.
Aaron Wiggins is out, which you would think would hurt OKC’s 3-point shooting, but Isaiah Joe has gone over his 3-point prop in four straight games while filling in.
Wiggins is a better defender than Joe, so that actually helps us here.
I project this line at 236.8.
So, while we’re chasing steam, I think the opening line was so far off it misses the mark.
The Thunder are playing their third game in four nights, and while they are 18-6 the last two seasons under those conditions, I’m not sure this year's OKC team is as good yet without Jalen Williams.
However, the over is 14-9-1 (60%) in those games.
