OKC Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (17) passes the ball poku2
For the final time this season, the OKC Thunder will tip-off versus the Sacramento Kings. While it would be easy to say there is nothing on the line for the clubs that’s not necessarily true. OKC is invested in losing to ensure the best possible position in the draft lottery.
As Intentions noted in our recent article the Thunder have moved into the prime position but could find themselves in an odd game of coin-flipping if there isn’t movement this week by their counterparts.
As for the Kings, they are equally invested — in winning.
