Cleveland at Oklahoma City

February 22, 2026
img1:00 PM Eastern

Oklahoma City has won and covered five of the past six meetings, including 136-104 on Jan. 19. The Thunder have won three of four despite some key injuries and they come off a 105-86 rout of Brooklyn on Friday night. Jared McCain scored a season-high 21 points and the Nets were held to 33 points in the first half. The game stayed UNDER by 24.5 points as the Thunder have stepped up their defense in light of the injuries. They have allowed 103.8 points per game their past four. Cleveland has won seven in a row, but it is just 13-14 ATS on the road this season. The Cavaliers didn't cover the number in their 118-113 win at Charlotte. Oklahoma City has gone UNDER five of six home games. Take the Thunder and the UNDER.

Oklahoma City at Cleveland

January 19, 2026
img2:30 PM Eastern

Cleveland is not having the kind of season it had last year, as the Cavaliers are just 24-19 and currently dealing with several injuries, including Darius Garland (foot) and Sam Merrill (hand), both out. Oklahoma City had its five-game win streak snapped in a 122-120 loss to Miami on Saturday when the Heat hit 20 3-pointers. The Thunder still have won nine of 12, and they are 7-3 ATS in their past 10 games following a loss. Oklahoma City has covered four of five against teams with winning records. The Cavaliers are 1-4 ATS in their past five following a win and 1-4 ATS at home against opponents with a .600 road winning percentage. Cleveland is 1-4 ATS in its past five against the Northwest Division. Take the Thunder.

Cleveland at Oklahoma City

January 16, 2025
img7:30 PM Eastern

This game looks like a preview to the NBA Finals as both these teams have played extremely well from the opening tip of the season. This will be the second and final meeting in the regular season for these teams. The Thunder lost in Cleveland by seven points, and as these games usually go, each winning on their home court is the highest expectation of outcomes. I'm looking for a big home effort from the Thunder, as they are 17-2 on the season with home court. Oklahoma City is 15-3 ATS at home if they have covered three of their last four games. Back OKC in this battle of heavyweights.
