The Oklahoma City Thunder travel on the road to face the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. This is the start of a three-game road trip. This will be the season’s third matchup between the squads. OKC won the first two with its latest victory on Feb. 5.
The Thunder (65-14) are fresh off a dramatic win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 42 points to snap a two-game losing streak. It was the first night of a home-and-road back-to-back.
Meanwhile, the Suns (35-44) are about to fall out of the postseason picture. They’ve lost seven straight. The Golden State Warriors blew them out on Tuesday. Devin Booker only had 21 points in a 133-95 loss.
Because both teams are on the second night of a back-to-back, neither have submitted an injury report yet. It’ll be interesting to see how much they push their top players considering there is little to zero to play for.
Tipoff from Phoenix is set for 9 p.m. CT.
