The Thunder will be short-handed on what marks the second night of a back-to-back stretch. It’ll be without Chet Holmgren (right patellar tendinitis), Cason Wallace (left shoulder soreness) and Jalen Williams (left lower leg injury).

Thunder vs Suns predictions, picks

Justin Martinez: Phoenix 111, OKC 108

OKC will be short-handed on what marks the second night of a back-to-back stretch, and it’ll also be less than 24 hours removed from watching Jalen Williams sustain a significant left leg injury. That’s a lot to overcome, even for a Thunder team with championship experience and league-leading depth. I’m giving the edge to the Suns in this one.
