The Brooklyn Nets are on the road to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first of two scheduled contests this season. Brooklyn will host the second contest on January 5th.
Both teams last played on Friday with Brooklyn losing 104-110 to the Wizards while the Thunder handed the Nuggets just their third home loss (119-93).
Season Series
Last season the Thunder swept the two-game regular season series and also holds the all-time record between the squads with 62 victories in 97 matches.
Brooklyn Nets
In stark contrast to their opponent, the Nets have stumbled losing seven of their last nine matches with the two victories coming versus the 3-29 Detroit Pistons.
While Brooklyn began the season 12-9 and looking very much like a club who would be in the mix for the sixth playoff seed they’ve been in free fall as the schedule shifted to facing contenders and elite squads.
Injuries have played a role, but ultimately this squad is in rebuild/reformulation mode and in need of another star asset to pair with Mikal Bridges.
Nets Stats
Heading into this match the Nets rank 11th offensively (116.8), and 23rd defensively (117.0) with a net differential of minus -0.2 which ranks 20th overall.
While the Nets have slid recently they remain one of the stronger bets against the spread with an 18-13-1 record through 32 contests.
Nets Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Ben Simmons, PG (OUT indefinitely — hip)
- Lonnie Walker IV, SG (OUT indefinitely — hamstring)
OKC Thunder
Those familiar with this space know I’ve been advocating for Sam Presti to buy into what his youngsters are delivering by filling in a few key gaps in the roster to launch the Thunder championship window.
It’s not as if Presti doesn’t have the goods sitting with 15 first-round and 22 second-round future draft picks along with a slew of young assets who’ve made OKC’s bench one of the deepest in the association.
Thunder Stats
OKC is one of four teams (Celtics, 76ers, Nuggets) that rank in the top ten in both offense and defense. Specifically, they rank sixth on offense (118.8), and in a three-way tie for second on defense (110.4) while they offer a plus +8.4 net differential registering third overall.
In terms of the Thunder’s performance against the spread, they are one of the better bets with a 21-8-1 record through 30 contests.

Free Brooklyn Nets vs. OKC Thunder NBA Prediction:
While both clubs feature a rising star it’s the Thunder who have taken the leap and are burgeoning with talent.
Moreover, Mark Daigneault has his squad playing with fearlessness and grit that has produced statement wins. For example, the win in Denver isn’t an outlier as OKC owns two of the three losses the Nuggets have suffered at Ball Arena this season.
This Thunder club has a palpable swagger led by the smooth confidence of their superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander which is why one of many reasons why I expect them to keep rolling with yet another win.
