by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The Oklahoma City Thunder will head to the Toyota Center on Monday to face the Houston Rockets in the NBA. The Rockets (14-6) are second in the Western Conference while OKC (15-4) are leading the conference standings. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Houston Rockets have been one of the most improved teams in the league this season and picked up their ninth win in 11, beating the 76ers 122-115 in overtime last week.
Jalen Green put up a very impressive 41 points, Alperen Sengun got 22 points and 14 rebounds, and Amen Thompson added 19 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks.
The Rockets are just outside the top 10 (11th) for points scored per game this season, averaging 114.4, while they’re top three on the defensive end, allowing just 105.9 PPG.
Meanwhile, the Oklahoma City Thunder have been the best in the West this season, now gunning a fifth straight win after taking down the Lakers 101-93 on the road over the weekend.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander turned in another big performance, scoring 36 points and nine assists but the real difference was that none of the Lakers bench players scored more than seven points.
OKC are scoring 0.5 fewer points than Houston on average this season but they are conceding 1.3 points fewer on defence as well.
