Moneyline

BET THUNDER (-125).

The Thunder are the much hotter team, being 5-0 in their last 5 overall and 8-2 in their last 10 while Atlanta is 1-4 in its last 5. The Hawks will simply have no answer for G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and his MVP level tear right now, along with the shooting and interior defense provided by F Jalen Williams and F Chet Homgren.

BET THUNDER -1.5 (-110).

OKC has covered ATS in each of its last 5 games while the Hawks have dropped 5 straight ATS and are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 overall. Oklahoma City is also much better ATS in total this season, being 23-9 while Atlanta is 7-25.
