The Oklahoma City Thunder are taking on the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night inside the Paycom Center. The Thunder hope to extend its eight game winning streak, one that stretches back even further against Eastern Conference squads. The Thunder have only fallen once to an East Foe this season and are aiming for the NBA record for cross-conference play if they can avoid losing two more times in that setting.
The Indiana Pacers are 8-2 in their last ten games with one of those losses at the hands of a Lakers buzzer beater. The Pacers are playing their best basketball in the second half of the season led by star Tyrese Haliburton who will have to command his troops against a tenacious defense that swarms ball handlers and jumps passing lanes.
Each side has released its latest Injury Report ahead of tonight's affair. The Oklahoma City Thunder have added Chet Holmgren to the injury report and still tab two Rotational pieces questionable for tonight.
