Tuesday, January 10th, finds the OKC Thunder facing the Miami Heat playing for the second and final time this season. The Heat won the initial meeting on December 14th in a scrappy very competitive match (108-110).
The Thunder last played Sunday defeating the Luka-less Mavericks 120-109 while the Heat lost a dogfight 101-102 versus the Brooklyn Nets.
All time the Thunder owns the advantage of winning 40 out of the 69 prior meetings. Last season the teams played twice with the Heat winning both matches and having a current five-game win streak.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Monday, evening, January 9th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Tuesday, January 10th.
OKC Thunder
While many teams in the association are experiencing angst from their fan bases for being a part of the parity pack, the fan base in Oklahoma City is loving what their young squad is producing.
They’ve determined Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has created a worthy argument to make his first All-Star team and possibly make an All-NBA team and most importantly is a star they can center the rebuild around.
Don’t forget a player who challenged to be the top draft pick is sitting on the bench (Chet Holmgren) and will return next season to join the burgeoning talents of SGA, Josh Giddey, and stand-out rookie Jalen Williams.
Offense
The Thunder score 115.2 points per game ranking 10th while shooting 45.9% from the field and 34.6% from deep ranking 23rd and 18th.
Defensively, the Thunder rank 25th for opponent points allowing 116.8 per game while opponents shoot 46.7% from the field and 36.2% from the perimeter ranking 11th and 18th respectively.
Aleksej Pokusevski (leg) is out indefinitely. Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) and Ousmane Dieng (wrist) are out indefinitely. Chet Holmgren (foot) is out for the season.
Miami Heat
Victor Oladipo single-handedly outscored the Suns’ bench (26-25) in the victory on Friday.
While Jimmy Butler (20 points, five rebounds, six assists, two steals) and Bam Adebayo (21 points, 11 rebounds) led the starting unit, Dipo’s performance was the x-factor in the victory.
Offensively, the Heat score 108.9 points per game (30th rank) and rank 26th for both field goal shooting 45.3% and from the perimeter shooting 33.9%.
Defense
Defensively, the Heat possesses the second-best ranking for opponent scoring allowing 109.1 points per game. Miami opponents shoot 47.5% from the field and 36.7% from the perimeter ranking 20th and 27th respectively.
Caleb Martin (quad) is questionable for Tuesday. Duncan Robinson (finger) and Nikola Jovic (back) are out indefinitely. Omer Yurtseven (ankle surgery) is out.

Free OKC Thunder vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
Entering week 13 of gameplay the Thunder sit 13th but are within 3.0 games of being fifth (2.0 back of 6th/7th)! That’s how jumbled the West is.
Their upcoming schedule segment could determine whether the club fully commits to competing or tanking with nine of their next 13 opponents having winning records and six of their next seven matches on the road.
8th Seed
The Heat begins the week seeded eighth 1.5 games back of the 7th-seeded Knicks and 1.5 games up on the 9th/10th-seeded Bulls and Hawks.
Furthermore, Miami has a tougher second-half schedule beginning with this current stretch where 13 of their next 18 matches feature winning clubs with 10 of that 18 on the road.
Also, Jimmy Butler didn’t play in the first meeting between these clubs and should be the difference in this contest.
