Because the Thunder has secured its playoff spot, it is unclear as to what the team will be doing for its final regular season game. It is clear that James Harden will more than likely be out after suffering a concussion from a hard elbow from the Los Angeles Lakers’ Metta World Peace. Durant and Russell Westbrook could be rested, seeing that they are the first and fifth top scoring players in the NBA. There is no information available at this time over what the Thunder will do.
However, the Thunder will still have Serge Ibaka on the court. Ibaka leads the NBA with 3.65 blocks per game. This is more than one block higher than the nearest player.
The Denver Nuggets, who are 7-3 in their last ten, need to win in order to keep a hold of the sixth spot in the West. This would give the Nuggets a matchup with the Lakers if they finished in sixth. Check the Sportsbook Odds for Denver Nuggets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder NBA Lines game.
