Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the OKC Thunder will host Anthony Davis and the Dallas Mavericks at 8:30 p.m. Friday.

OKC (21-1) extended its winning streak to 13 games with a 124-112 road win over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. Dallas (8-15) is on a three-game winning streak following its 118-108 home win over the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Thunder vs Mavericks predictions, picks

Justin Martinez: OKC 118, Dallas 103

Dallas had the worst offensive rating in the NBA (105.9) through its first 20 games of the season. But it has won its last three games dating back to Nov. 29, and it ranks 11th in offensive rating (119) during that time. Anthony Davis is now healthy, Cooper Flagg is in a great rhythm and Ryan Nembhard has emerged as a solid point guard option. Still, I don’t think that momentum will continue when Dallas faces an OKC team with the best defense in the NBA. Davis and Flagg will be pestered by All-Defensive-caliber players all night, and the Thunder will extend its winning streak to 14 games.
