The Oklahoma City Thunder<\/a> will host the Brooklyn Nets<\/a> on Friday. This will be the first matchup of the season between the two squads.<\/p>\n

The Thunder (42-14) continue to navigate life without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He will miss at least one more week with an abdominal strain. Last time, OKC limped to the NBA All-Star break with a 110-93 loss<\/a> to the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> last Thursday.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Nets (15-39) were on the wrong side of a 112-84 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday. Michael Porter Jr. had a quiet 14 points and five rebounds on the front-end of their road back-to-back.<\/p>\n

Despite the week off, the Thunder remain without the reigning MVP and an All-NBA player. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdominal strain) is out. Jalen Williams (hamstring strain) is out. Ajay Mitchell (abdominal strain, ankle sprain) is out. Thomas Sorber (torn ACL) is out.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Nets have yet to submit their injury report. They’re on the second night of a back-to-back. Although they were mostly healthy in Cleveland.<\/p>\n
