What to Know
On Saturday, the Oklahoma City Thunder will fight it out against the Dallas Mavericks in a Western Conference playoff contest at 8:00 p.m. ET at American Airlines Center. Coming off a loss in a game the Thunder were expected to win, they now face the more daunting task of proving themselves against unfavorable odds.
The Thunder are headed into this one after the oddsmakers set last week’s over/under low at 212.5, but even that wound up being too high. They took a 104-92 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Mavericks on Wednesday. The result shouldn’t come as a shock considering that’s the fewest points Oklahoma City has scored all season.
Despite the loss, the Thunder got a solid performance out of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who scored 30 points along with eight assists and six rebounds. Gilgeous-Alexander’s evening made it five games in a row in which he has scored at least 30 points.
This is a must-win for the Thunder as the Mavericks are a game away from taking the series. Check back here after the game to see if the Thunder can force a Game 7 or if the Mavericks leave them behind.
