The Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs join ESPN for a Midwest showdown between two of the youngest teams in the league.

The Thunder are 3-0 with wins over Denver (112-87), Chicago (114-95) and Atlanta (128-104). Oklahoma City hasn’t played a close game yet and oddsmakers don’t think it will be a close game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is coming off a near triple-double of 35 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists against the Hawks.

San Antonio is 1-2 and nearly pulled off a comeback win against Houston (106-101) in its previous outing. Victor Wembanyama had an impressive all-around game against Houston, setting early season highs in rebounds (20), assists (5) and blocks (4). The Spurs will look to ride the young superstar when he takes on Chet Holgrem and the Thunder.

NBC Sportsbook Best Bet

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Oklahoma City’s Team Total Over 117.5 vs. the Spurs with a dash of Spurs 1H ML:

“If we’re talking half units or sprinkles, I can get started with the Spurs 1H ML in Oklahoma City. Although the Thunder -13 are home favourites, they are untested and Victor Wembanyama and Spurs are hungry.

San Antonio led Dallas and Houston at halftime of their first two games before falling behind to the Rockets in the previous outing. Last season, however, Oklahoma City won three meetings against San Antonio by 26, 38 and 36 points, but lost one by 14 and trailed at halftime.

We’ll know by halftime how competitive this game is, but either way, the Thunder are going to score a lot of points. OKC scored 123, 140, 132 and 127 points in four meetings with the Spurs last season. I think OKC will go for 120+ points on the Spurs again, so give me the Thunder Team Total Over 117.5 and I’d sprinkle the Spurs 1H ML for fun.
