Denver at Oklahoma City

May 5, 2025
img9:30 PM Eastern
Premium Pick

Oklahoma City is totally rested after having eight days off, while Denver will have a quick turnaround following a seven-game series against the Clippers. The Thunder are on a 9-1 ATS run at home, and they are 16-4 ATS in their past 20 games overall. The Thunder have won five of the past seven meetings, and they are 6-0 ATS playing with at least three days' rest. They are #2 in the NBA in scoring (120.0 per game) and offensive rebounds (13.0) and #6 in field goal percentage (.457). The Nuggets are 0-6-1 ATS in their past seven following a win by at least 10 points. Denver is in a letdown situation, and it will be satisfied with just a split of the first two games at Oklahoma City. Lay the points with the Thunder.
