Nets at Thunder: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, best bet

The Brooklyn Nets (39-29, fifth in the Eastern Conference) visit Paycom Center on Tuesday to take on the Oklahoma City Thunder (33-35, 12th in the Western Conference) for the second and final time this season. The Thunder lead the regular-season series 1-0.

We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds, and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at BetMGM Sportsbook!

In the first game, a Thunder 112-102 win on Jan. 15, Oklahoma City guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey scored 28 points each to lead their team to the victory. Seth Curry scored 23 points to lead in Brooklyn in scoring in its second game without Kevin Durant after he suffered a sprained right MCL.

The Nets come into this game having won five of its past six games and are on a three-game winning streak. Their most recent win, and arguably most impressive victory since the All-Star break, was a 122-120 win over the Western Conference-leading Denver Nuggets. Mikal Bridges and Spencer Dinwiddie have been leading the charge for Brooklyn and both players were in consideration for Eastern Conference player of the week as a recognition of their efforts.

The Thunder come into this contest having also won five of its last six games and are on a two-game winning streak. Gilgeous-Alexander has been incredible for Oklahoma City and he was a tough cover for Brooklyn in the first meeting. Thunder rookie Jalen Williams has started to come on as of late as he is averaging 22.5 points in his last four games.

This game can be seen locally on the YES Network (Nets) and Bally Sports Oklahoma (Thunder).
