Thunder vs. Spurs prediction and odds for Sunday, March 12 (Spurs overvalued)

The Oklahoma City Thunder picked up a win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night, and now they’ll look to take down the San Antonio Spurs as slight favorites on the road.

The key in this game will be the eventual injury report for the Thunder, who have been a far better team this season.

OKC may opt to sit All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and rookie standout Jalen Williams in the second night of a back-to-back since they’ve both been dealing with injuries.

If not, this line is likely to move in OKC’s direction against a Spurs team that ranks dead last in the league in net rating this season.

Yes, San Antonio pulled off an upset win over Denver in its last game, but can bettors really trust the Spurs again?

Here’s a look at the latest odds:

Thunder vs. Spurs prediction and pick

Even if the Thunder decide to sit some key players on Sunday, I still like them to win this game.

San Antonio is just 17-49 on the season, and the team had a 32-point loss to the Houston Rockets, the worst team in the Western Conference, before it’s upset win over the Nuggets on Friday night.

San Antonio is just 14-14 against the spread as a home dog this season, and the Thunder are one of the best road teams in the NBA, going 18-11-3 against the spread.

They are 0-4 ATS as road favorites, so I’m going to forget the points with some potential key players being out and just take OKC to win this game and remain in the hunt for a play-in spot in the West.
