You can bet the Thunder had this one circled. Expect Gilgeous-Alexander and others to try to get a signature win over the Timberwolves, who beat them in the last two matchups. It’s OKC’s turn to get a home game against the team it beat in the Western Conference Finals last year. This should be another thriller in a string of them for the Thunder. This should be a low-scoring affair. The reigning NBA champions have found a flow since the All-Star break by being somewhat healthy. That roll should continue to wrap up this lengthy homestand.
Prediction: Thunder 109, Timberwolves 103
