The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Indiana Pacers on Friday. This will be the second matchup of the season between the two squads. Last time, OKC survived a double overtime thriller all the way back on Oct. 23.
The Thunder (37-8) didn’t let a short-handed roster stop them from getting a 122-102 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dominated with an unreal 40-point and 11-assist double-double.
Meanwhile, the Pacers (10-35) are flirting with the league’s worst record. They had a 119-104 loss to the Boston Celtics on Wednesday. Pascal Siakam went off for 32 points and 10 rebounds.
