The Oklahoma City Thunder (58-12) visit the Los Angeles Clippers (40-30) on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at the Intuit Dome.

The Thunder is fresh off a convincing 141-106 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. It's their 12th win in the last 13 games and also their fifth straight victory. In the last four games, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has put up 35.8 points and 7.5 assists, including an excellent 67.5% True Shooting. 

Meanwhile, the Clippers are also playing their best basketball this season. They have won eight of their last nine games, and are currently on a five-game winning streak. In that span, James Harden has returned to MVP form, notching 29.2 points and 9.2 assists. 

It also helps that the Clippers are fully healthy at this stage of the season. This has helped them improve their offensive rating from 113.9 to 125.4 in the last nine games. Their three-point shooting has been a primary weapon, as they're hitting 43.3% of their long-range shots.

The Thunder will be without All-Star forward Jalen Williams, who will miss his fifth straight game due to a hip injury. Without Williams, the Thunder might find it difficult to win big against the Clippers, if they could win at all.
