The Oklahoma City Thunder, with a record of 38-17, aim to continue their three-game winning streak as they host the struggling Washington Wizards, who have a record of 9-46. Oklahoma City, currently in second place in the Western Conference, emerged victorious with a 129-107 win over the Clippers, on Thursday following the All-Star Break.

Meanwhile, Washington, holding the second-worst record in the Eastern Conference, has not secured a win since late January. Scheduled for an 8 p.m. ET tipoff at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, the Thunder are heavily favored by 16 points, with the over/under set at 241.

Oklahoma City closed the first half of the season on a positive note, securing wins against the Kings and Magic. The Thunder returned from the All-Star Break with an impressive performance, defeating the Clippers 129-107 as 1-point favorites. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the charge with 31 points, eight assists, and four rebounds.

The entire starting lineup, including rookie center Chet Holmgren, scored in double figures. The Thunder have a formidable five-game home winning streak and boast an 11-4 record in their last 15 home games against the Wizards.

On the other hand, the Wizards have been relatively successful on the road recently, covering the spread in seven of their last eight away games. Currently concluding a four-game road trip, they covered the spread against the Mavericks and Pelicans.

Washington power forward Kyle Kuzma leads the team with 22.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game, while Jordan Poole contributes 15.7 points and 3.6 assists. Despite Poole coming off the bench for the first time this season in their recent game against Denver, the Wizards covered the spread in four of their last six games.

In their previous encounter last month, the Wizards lost to the Thunder by eight points. The Thunder, with their recent strong performances and home-court advantage, will look to extend their winning streak, while the Wizards aim to turn things around on the road.
