The Los Angeles Lakers are on the road to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first of four scheduled contests this season.
LA is completing a back-to-back set having defeated the Pistons on Wednesday (133-107) while the Thunder played Tuesday losing a 103-106 nailbiter to the Wolves.
Season Series
Last season the Lakers won two of the three regular season contests and also holds the all-time record between the squads with 153 victories in 263 matches.
Los Angeles Lakers
Lakers fans got the full gamut of the spectrum in their team’s last two matches. On Monday, LA got blown out by 44 points in Philly and then took their frustrations out on the Pistons Wednesday beating them by 26 points.
D’Angelo Russell led the scoring with his season-high 35 points along with nine assists, four rebounds, a steal, and two blocks.
Stars LeBron James (25 points, eight rebounds, three assists) and Anthony Davis (28 points, 16 rebounds, four assists, steal, three blocks) filled up the box score.
Lakers Stats
LA is tied for 24th offensively (111.3), and ranks ninth defensively (111.7), with a net differential of minus -0.4 ranking 19th overall.
Through 19 matches, the Lakers are a middling bet registering an 8-11 record against the spread.
Lakers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
-
- LeBron James, SF (probable — calf)
- Anthony Davis, PF (probable — hip)
- Jarred Vanderbilt, SF (OUT indefinitely—heel)
- Rui Hchimura, PF (OUT indefinitely — nose)
- Cam Reddish, SG (upgraded to probable—groin)
- Gabe Vincent, PG (OUT indefinitely —knee)
OKC Thunder
Already there are some suggesting the In Season Tournament needs major tweaks because the top four teams in the West (to date) are nowhere to be found in the quarter finals.
OKC sort of got the raw deal as the qualifying games started on a last-minute ‘no call’ on a goaltend that handed the Warriors the win over the Thunder.
While the Thunder won’t be moving on that run of bad luck hasn’t stopped them from being one of the more pleasant surprises of the early season.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has buzz as an MVP candidate, Chet Holmgren is very much in the Rookie of the Year race (leading if you ask me), while Jalen Williams and Isaiah Joe should get consideration for Most Improved and Sixth Man respectively.
Thunder Stats
The Thunder ranks eighth on offense (117.0), and fifth on defense (109.4) while they offer a plus +7.6 net differential registering third overall.
In terms of the Thunder’s performance against the spread, they are one of the better bets early in the season with a 12-4-1 record.

Free Los Angeles Lakers vs. OKC Thunder NBA Prediction:
Through the last 10 games LA has played better defense but it might be a bit of fool’s gold given their schedule which featured multiple lower-tier teams.
OKC on the other hand is top 10 in both offense and defense and while they’re riding a two-game losing streak it came against the 76ers and Wolves and they were in both matches late.
Considering the types of teams the Lakers struggle against coupled with this being a back-to-back I like the athletic, confident Thunder to get back in the win column.
The question is whether they cover the spread and I’m banking on OKC getting up early and Darvin Ham not extending his core vets minutes once they do.
