Portland Trail Blazers

The Trail Blazers played their previous game away against another western contender, Minnesota. The team expectedly lost, although they put up serious resistance to a powerful opponent—114:119. Anfernee Simons had a great game for Portland, scoring 34 points and 14 assists.

Portland suffered its 10th defeat in the last 12 games and still occupies the penultimate place in the Western Conference.

Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder just overtook Minnesota and led the West, but at the end of the previous game again lost the leadership in the conference. Oklahoma couldn't stop LeBron James on the road and lost to the Los Angeles Lakers 104:116. The Thunder had a frankly unsightly meeting, made only 22 assists and cleanly lost the shield - 38:55 in rebounds.

At the same time, this setback was only the second for Oklahoma in the last nine games.

Expert Betting Tips

Portland looked good in the match with Minnesota, but the Timberwolves had back-to-back games. Oklahoma had a day of rest ahead of the upcoming game and will also take to the floor after a loss to the Lakers, which will further motivate it. Accordingly, let's bet on the Thunder's 12th consecutive win over the Trail Blazers, as well as on Portland showing themselves to be one of the most inefficient offenses this season and scoring few points.
