The Oklahoma City Thunder travel on the road to face the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. This will be the second matchup of the season. Last time, OKC had a stress-free win on Feb. 3.
The Thunder (53-15) have won eight in a row. They continued to roll with a 116-103 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 20 points and 10 assists to barely keep his 20-point streak alive.
Meanwhile, the Magic (38-29) weren’t competitive in a 124-112 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. That ended their seven-game win streak. Paolo Banchero struggled with 18 points and 10 rebounds.
The Thunder remain without an All-NBA player. Jalen Williams (hamstring strain) is out. Nikola Topic (G League assignment) is out. Branden Carlson (back strain) is out. Brooks Barnhizer (G League two-way) is out. Thomas Sorber (torn ACL) is out.
Because the Magic are on the second night of a back-to-back, they’ve yet to submit an injury report. That said, we can rule out a few players. Franz Wagner (ankle sprain injury management) is out. Jonathan Isaac (knee sprain) is out.
Tipoff from Orlando is set for 6 p.m. CT.
