In the last game of a three game home stand, the Thunder will host the first place Milwaukee Bucks. Both teams enter this game looking to extend their respective winning streaks. Oklahoma City is currently on a four game win streak, while the Bucks have won six in a row and have led the Eastern Conference for much of the season so far.
Milwaukee poses a different type of challenge for the Thunder’s defense. The Bucks center Brook Lopez leads their team with six, three pointers attempted per game. It will be interesting to see if Lopez can draw Steven Adams out of the paint, leaving the Thunder vulnerable on the glass and with a lane open for Giannis to attack.
