Oklahoma City Thunder vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
The Oklahoma City Thunder have been one of the most consistent teams in the league, both SU and ATS, these last two seasons, and you make money blindly backing them. The San Antonio Spurs are likely going to be without Wembanyama as he’s been downgraded to doubtful, and I want little to do with them when they’re without their best player. The Thunder are 7-3 SU and 8-2 ATS in the last 10 games against the Spurs. I’ll lay the points with OKC on the road.
