Oklahoma City Thunder at Memphis Grizzlies Preview & Picks

Oklahoma City Thunder are tipped to cover as they win the eighth straight meeting with Memphis.

The Thunder are on a tremendous run of form and have dominated the potentially short-handed Grizzlies in recent season.

  • Oklahoma City Thunder are 13-2 in their last 15 games
  • Memphis Grizzlies are 1-8-1 ATS in their previous 10 games
  • Oklahoma City Thunder are 7-0 in the last 7 meetings with Memphis
  • The Under has cashed in 7 of the last 9 meetings (1 push)

Head To Head

  • Oklahoma City Thunder lead the all-time series 81-45
  • Oklahoma City Thunder won 125-112 when the two teams last met on February 8

Oklahoma City Thunder Form

Oklahoma City head to Memphis looking to extend a great run of form that has seen them win 13 of their last 15 games and each of the last four.

The Thunder kicked off this great run on February 1 as they blew out Sacramento at home, 144-110, sparking a seven-game win streak.

That run was halted by a 116-101 loss in Minnesota, but they responded immediately to win 130-107 in Utah and 130-123 at the Timberwolves.

Oklahoma City then lost 131-128 in overtime at home to Minnesota, only to bounce back in superb fashion over the last several days.

The Thunder won 129-121 in Brooklyn, 135-119 at Atlanta and 146-132 in San Antonio, before returning home to down Houston 137-128.

Memphis Grizzlies Form

Memphis go into this game in need of a victory, having lost six of their last eight games and each of the previous three.

The Grizzlies’ poor run began on the road as they followed up a 128-114 defeat at the LA Clippers with a 127-113 loss in Indiana.

They avoided a third straight loss by winning 105-104 in Orlando, only to immediately return to losing ways with a 129-123 defeat to Cleveland.

Memphis then enjoyed a wining homecoming as they beat Phoenix 151-148 in overtime, but they once again failed to build on a victory.

The Grizzlies have lost three consecutive outings on their home court, losing 114-113 to New York, 130-128 to San Antonio and 132-130 to Atlanta.
