Oklahoma City Thunder vs Houston Rockets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA

 by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions

The Oklahoma City Thunder will take on the Houston Rockets at the Paycom Center in the NBA on Saturday night. OKC (7-1) are second in the Western Conference, while the Rockets (5-3) are in fourth place. Check out our match prediction below. 

After shooting out the starting blocks with seven wins in a row, the Oklahoma City Thunder suffered their first defeat of the season 124-122 to the Denver Nuggets in midweek. 

Jalen Williams top-scored with 29 points in the defeat while MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put up 28 points and six assists. SGA is now averaging 26 PPG. 

OKC are 13th in the league for points scored per game averaging 114.4, but they are head and shoulders the best defensive team in the league, averaging just 99.4 PPG against this term. 

Meanwhile, the Rockets seem to have found their best form lately and are now aiming for a third consecutive win after downing the Spurs 127-100 at home in the week. 

It was an excellent all-round effort from the team against the Spurs, with Fred VanVleet and Jalen Green scoring 21 each, while Alperen Sengun added 16 and four assists. 

The Rockets are scoring 0.6 PPG fewer than OKC this season (14th in the NBA), and are allowing 6.6 PPG more than the Thunder at the defensive end (3rd in the league).

Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Houston Rockets Prediction

The Thunder have been excellent so far this season, particularly on defence, but they did just suffer their first loss of the season and it will be interesting to see how they respond in this one. 

Houston, on the other hand, are starting to heat up and they will feel that this could be an ideal opportunity to make a statement. They’ve also won three of their last five against OKC and arguably have a much better team this term than last. Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Houston Rockets prediction: Houston Rockets +8.5!
