Thunder money line

The Spurs took down the Thunder not once, not twice, but three times in December, proving to be a real thorn in the side for OKC. The Thunder got their revenge in the last meeting, however, picking up a win in January. The SportsLine Projection Model expects OKC to leave San Antonio with another victory as the Thunder win in 64% of model simulations Wednesday night.

Over 222.5

The Thunder have a slight lean to the Over this season at 26-25 while the Spurs are just 18-32 to the Over. The model likes Over 222.5, though, with that side of the total hitting in 56.4% of simulations. Three of the four matchups between these teams this season have finished Under this line.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Under 38.5 points + assists

The reigning NBA MVP is averaging 38.2 points + assists per game this season, just below this 38.5 line for Wednesday’s matchup with the Spurs. The model thinks SGA will come up just short of this line with a projection of 37.6. He has averaged 35 points + assists against the Spurs this season.
