How to watch: Thunder vs. Nets

Advice and prediction

Kevin Durant has averaged more than 30 points in the games he has played against the Thunder since departing in 2016, and I don’t expect less from him after missing the last three games due to coronavirus protocols.

His Achilles injury doesn’t appear to have changed him as a player, as he is still posting 28.2 points per game.

Oklahoma City played very sound defense against the Knicks and, with Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie out, the team can focus hard on Durant. Neither Lu Dort nor Darius Bazley has matched up against Durant; how will they fare?

I don’t expect the Nets, who are third in the league in scoring, to fall to the Thunder, who are second-to-last. I’d take the under and Brooklyn on the spread.

Prediction: Nets 116, Thunder 103
