Thunder vs Trail Blazers predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 121, Portland 108
Portland handed OKC its only loss of the season earlier this month. But the Thunder was on the second night of a back-to-back, and it was without Chet Holmgren and Lu Dort. They’ll be available this time around, and the Trail Blazers will be without two key contributors of their own in Shaedon Sharpe and Jrue Holiday. I’m expecting OKC to make a statement with a convincing home win.
