The OKC Thunder return home on a high note after collecting their 12th win of the season. It’s been a rough couple of weeks with the team battling elite clubs but only securing two wins in the past eight games.
After facing six playoff seeds and the ninth-seeded Grizzlies the Thunder schedule finally served up a lottery-bound squad and OKC responded. They scored 117 points and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander offered one last performance for coaches to ponder as they submit their All-Star reserve selections.
