The OKC Thunder will host the Washington Wizards in their next NBA match. They top the Western Conference whereas the Wizards are bottom out in the East. Read on to find our prediction for this match.

The Thunder have responded superbly after losing the NBA Cup final. Mike Daigneult’s men, who are having a sensational season, have won their last two games and look destined for another winning streak.

The hosts are coming off a 104-97 road win over the Heat which has improved them to 22-5. OKC are gradually getting healthier and are expected to have Jaylin Williams available for selection for the first time this season.

The Wizards suffered yet another loss in their most recent outing. Brian Keefe’s men have the worst record in the NBA and have lost 22 of 26 fixtures.

With only one road win in 12 such games, the Wizards were defeated 112-101 by the Bucks last time out. Saddiq Bey and Kyle Kuzma remain long-term injury absentees and will not be available for this trip.

The Wizards have lost four straight against OKC. They were blown out by 41 points the last time they were in Oklahoma. The visitors are allowing 122.2 points a game which is the worst defensive record so far.
