Like without Andre Roberson has been much harder than the Oklahoma City Thunder could have predicted. Since winning their first game without the guard, the Thunder have gone 0-3 SU and ATS while allowing an average of 114.3 points per game. The Thunder will try and get back on the winning path when they host the Los Angeles Lakers Sunday.
- The Lakers are 1-12 SU in their last 13 games vs the Thunder.
- The total has gone OVER in 6 of the Thunder’s last 8 games.
- The Thunder is 5-0 SU and ATS in their last 5 games at home vs the Lakers.
Fatigue could very well be playing into OKC’s reason issues, as this game will mark their sixth in a nine-day span. That being said, Russell Westbrook has been thriving with the point guard averaging 23.4 points, 14.4 assists and nine rebounds in the Thunder’s last five games.
The Lakers have been playing their best basketball of the season recently with the squad winning five of their past seven games. However, Coach Luke Walton might need to do some reshuffling of his lineups with Brandon Ingram officially questionable for this contest after he injured his groin on Friday against the Nets. If that is the case, replacing Ingram won’t be easy with the point forward playing his best all-around basketball of the season recently.
