Thunder @ Celtics tonight

OKC is in town tonight and I expect to see a high scoring affair.

The O/U is 228.5 but I think we could see a combined score in the 242 range.

I am not going to do a deep dive into OKC. They are a below .500 team at 6-7 and are led in scoring by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. This 6' 6" PG is averaging 31 PPG.

They are coming off of a 145-135 win yesterday vs the Knicks. Josh Giddey (6' 8")had a triple double.

They do not have a traditional center in their stating lineup.

Likely starters are Alexander, Giddey, Dort (6' 4"), Robinson-Earl (6' 8") and either Aleksej Pokusevski, the 7 foot 190 lbs string bean, or Aaron Wiggins, a 6' 5" SG.

Their team shoots 33% from deep on 35 3PA.

Jaylen should be back. OKC does not have a viable matchup for Jayson Tatum and Jaylen should be well rested and ready to take it to them.

Giddey by the way is the leading rebounder on the team at 7.3 per game.
