The Oklahoma City Thunder are on the road in San Antonio tonight for a battle with the Spurs. The Thunder have quietly taken over first place in the Western Conference, winning seven of their last 10 games to improve to 30-13 on the season. Meanwhile, the Spurs are still struggling mightily, own one of the worst records in the league and currently sit at the bottom of the Western Conference.
However, the battle between the great rookies of both teams makes the confrontation essential on television. San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama and OKC’s Chet Holmgren currently have one-two odds to take home this year’s Rookie of the Year award.
The Thunder won the first matchup between the two, but both rookies had major issues in the game. Both have since taken a step forward and will surely be eager to put on a show in tonight’s showdown.
OKC is the favorite once again, but given how the rookies have performed lately, the excitement is in their battle and not the outcome. The game begins at 9:30 pm ET on ESPN. Before the jump, check out the game information below, including live odds and fixture picks.
