Oklahoma City @ Memphis

Current Records: Oklahoma City 6-15; Memphis 11-10

What to Know

The Oklahoma City Thunder might have tired legs after a matchup yesterday as they head on the road against the Memphis Grizzlies at 8 p.m. ET Dec. 2 at FedExForum. Memphis should still be feeling good after a win, while the Thunder will be looking to right the ship.

It was a hard-fought game, but Oklahoma City had to settle for a 114-110 loss against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday. Point guard Tre Mann had a pretty forgettable game, finishing with 11 points on 4-for-13 shooting in his 32 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, Memphis picked up a 98-91 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday. Memphis’ power forward Jaren Jackson Jr. looked sharp as he had 25 points in addition to six boards and five blocks.

Oklahoma City is the clear underdog, so they’re hoping it’s the size of the fight that determines this one. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 12-6 against the spread when expected to lose.

The Thunder are now 6-15 while the Grizzlies sit at 11-10. A couple stats to keep an eye on: Oklahoma City is second worst in the league in points per game, with only 99 on average. Memphis has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the contest with the second most points allowed per game in the league, having given up 114.4 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
