The Oklahoma City Thunder will welcome the Golden State Warriors to Paycom Center for an NBA game on Tuesday. The Oklahoma City Thunder won 129-119 in their last game over the Jazz. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 38 points and seven rebounds in his return from a five-game absence and the Oklahoma City Thunder led all the way while beating the Utah Jazz 129-119 on Sunday night. Rookie Jalen Williams added a career-high 32 points on 12-of-15 shooting and Josh Giddey just missed a triple-double with 24 points, nine rebounds and nine assists for Oklahoma City, which beat the Jazz for the second time in three days.
The Thunder also won in blowout fashion on Friday, 130-103. Utah trailed by double digits for the final 42 minutes of Sunday’s game. Jordan Clarkson led Utah with 18 points but missed all five of his 3-point attempts. The Jazz played without All-Star Lauri Markkanen, who sat out with what the team said was a low-back strain.
“I just thought our guys started the game really well,” Oklahoma City coach Mark Daigneault said. “We were in our spots and making them earn everything. We made some shots early (and) they missed some, but we forced them to go to jump shots early.”
The Golden State Warriors on the other hand lost 113-105 against the Lakers in their last game. The Lakers led most of the game but a 3-pointer by Golden State’s Anthony Lamb tied it at 91 with 5:37 remaining in the game. Los Angeles ran off seven straight points and would go up 103-95 before 3-pointers by Klay Thompson and Curry made it a two-point game with 1:46 remaining.
On the ensuing possession, Davis made a pair of free throws to put the Lakers up four. Curry missed on a 25-foot pullup shot and the Lakers took advantage. After Troy Brown Jr. got the rebound, Davis drove and hit a floater over Draymond Green to make it a 107-101 game with 48.9 seconds left. “I’m trying to be a little bit more aggressive.
Also trying to make the right plays for guys to get to their points because it is going to open the floor for me even more,” said Davis, who also had eight rebounds and six assists in 38 minutes. Austin Reaves scored 16 points and Brown had 14 for the Lakers as they moved within a half game of New Orleans for 10th place in the Western Conference and the final play-in spot.
