OKC (29-5) cruised to a 124-95 home win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Isaiah Hartenstein is out Friday due to a right soleus strain.

Golden State (18-16) secured a 132-125 road win over the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. Stephen Curry (left ankle sprain), Jimmy Butler (illness) and Draymond Green (rest) will not play.

Thunder vs Warriors predictions, picks

Justin Martinez: OKC 120, Golden State 104

This is a very short-handed Golden State team, and it’ll struggle to keep up on the scoreboard as a result. It’ll also likely struggle to take care of the ball. The Warriors rank 28th in the NBA in turnovers per game (16.2), while the Thunder ranks first in both turnovers forced per game (18.1) and points off of turnovers per game (24.7). I expect OKC’s defense to set the tone and help it emerge with a road win.
