This is the first of a three-game homestand for OKC. It’s also the second night of a road-and-home back-to-back. This will be the first matchup of the season between the two squads.
The Thunder (4-0) almost had a letdown in their 101-94 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Monday. They had a 22-point lead that was almost erased. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had a forgettable 23 points and eight rebounds. Chet Holmgren finished with 18 points and 11 rebounds.
Meanwhile, the Kings (1-2) were on the wrong side of a historic performance. They dropped a 127-120 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. In it, Austin Reaves went off for a jaw-dropping 51 points. He went 21-of-22 on free throws. Zach LaVine had 32 points in the defeat.

Advice and prediction
This should be an easy win for the Thunder. A much-needed win, too. This time around, a 20-point lead shouldn’t be melted away. Gilgeous-Alexander could be in line for a bounce-back performance. Holmgren could add to his recent roll. The rest of OKC’s role players should enjoy some home cooking. Expect this to be a stress-free win over a dysfunctional roster.
Prediction: Thunder 117, Kings 105
