Result:
LOSS

A short price on Oklahoma City, the No. 2 seed in the West. They are off a loss, but that was a tired situational spot and the Thunder is 11-5-2 ATS following a defeat. Oklahoma City is fifth in the NBA in scoring, 10th in points allowed, and tops in the West in field goal shooting defense allowing 43.3% shooting (third best in the NBA). The Thunder is 15-5-1 ATS playing on one days rest. Phoenix is fighting for its playoff life, but are not a strong defensive team; 21st in points allowed, 16th in field goal shooting defense. The Suns are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a win of more than 10 points. And when these teams meet, the Thunder is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings, the road team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings, and OKC is 6-1 ATS at Phoenix. Play Oklahoma City.
