After Friday’s close game against the Dallas Mavericks, Portland tries avenge it’s most recent loss against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Oklahoma City is currently 2nd in the Northwest Division and 7th in the Western Conference. They have one of the best point guards in the NBA with Russell Westbrook, who is currently averaging 30.8ppg, 10.8rpg, and 10.3apg.
Portland will have to shoot well in order to win this game. They have struggled with shooting the ball from three, so Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum will need to create open opportunities. Can’t afford a bad game from Lillard in this one, especially with Westbrook on the other side of the ball.
