Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Lou Aguila | in NBA Picks
The Oklahoma City Thunder resume their five-game Eastern Conference road trip on Friday, 7:00 p.m. US EST, facing the Indiana Pacers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
The Thunder are +270 underdogs to the Pacers after losing two consecutive games. Their star player will also not suit up for this game due to injury.
The Oklahoma City Thunder:
After starting their current road trip on the right foot, the Thunder were given a rude awakening when they faced a couple of Eastern Conference contenders. OKC fell 109-105 to the Joel Embiid-led Philadelphia 76ers before being swept away 135-100 by the Boston Celtics the following game.
To add salt to the wound, the Thunder lost All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to a quadriceps injury. Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 30.3 points and 6.3 rebounds this season.
The Indiana Pacers:
The Pacers are still processing what happened in Brooklyn two nights ago after losing to the Nets, 115-111, on April 3. Indiana cruised to a 133-111 win at home but then got scorched by hot-shooting Cam Thomas and Noah Clowney in their regular-season finale.
Brooklyn is officially eliminated from playoff contention, but they dealt the Pacers a crucial loss that could derail their chances of securing an outright playoff berth.
Tyrese Haliburton put up big numbers in back-to-back games vs. the Nets, recording 27 points and 13 assists on April 2 before posting 24 points and 8 assists on April 4.
