Thursday, December 5th the NBA offers up a full slate including the OKC Thunder taking on the Toronto Raptors in the first of two meetings between the clubs this season.

*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Wednesday, December 4th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Thursday, December 5th.
OKC Thunder
With the victory on Tuesday, the Thunder punched their ticket as the West’s top seed to the NBA Cup quarter-finals where they’ll face the Dallas Mavericks. It’s a repeat of the semi-finals this past summer and should be an entertaining matchup.
Unfortunately, OKC won’t have Chet Holmgren but the prospect of how deep the Thunder are is reflected in their position despite never having a full complement of the core contributors yet.

Free NBA Prediction:
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Lu Dort always get up for games at home and in recent years have each put on big performances in the T-Dot. Keep an eye on Barnes who is averaging 26 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 8.4 assists through the last five games.
And while I expect the Thunder to win I’ll take the points since Toronto has ranked in the upper third defensively for approximately the last 10 matches.
