Fresh off a 3 game skid, The Thunder now face a home and home against the only elite team they haven’t faced yet this season: the Toronto Raptors.
Here are 2 key players to watch in this game- 1 for each team.
1. The Return of Russ
The Thunder were without their franchise icon in Monday’s loss to the Heat, as Russell Westbrook served a one game suspension for racking up 16 technical fouls (he will be suspended again if he picks up 2 more in the team’s final 11 games).
