Oklahoma City Thunder has a 65% chance of winning the game
The defending champion Thunder are favored to snap their two-game losing streak against the Spurs by leveraging home-court advantage and a motivated roster on Christmas Day.
Key Analysis
- • Oklahoma City holds a league-best 26-4 record but is 0-2 against San Antonio this season, creating a high-stakes revenge scenario.
- • The Spurs enter the contest on a seven-game winning streak fueled by the duo of Victor Wembanyama and De'Aaron Fox.
- • Thunder stars Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein are available to counter the Spurs' size after San Antonio scored 60 points in the paint in the last meeting.
- • Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leads the Thunder offense with 32.5 points per game and will attack a Spurs defense allowing 113.6 points per night.
- • Oklahoma City must correct its ball security issues after allowing 20 points off turnovers in the December 23 loss to San Antonio.
- • The Spurs have a clean injury report for their core rotation, while the Thunder remain without key bench pieces like Jaylin Williams and Ajay Mitchell.
