Tuesday is packed with NBA action, and two standout games are grabbing attention. The Oklahoma City Thunder, sitting pretty at 26-3, are up against the San Antonio Spurs, who aren't far behind at 21-7. The Thunder are riding high after a solid win against the Grizzlies, thanks to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's impressive 31 points. This guy has been on fire, scoring 20+ points in 100 straight games! The Thunder are also leading the league in scoring, averaging 122. 3 points per game. The Spurs aren't far behind, sitting at sixth with 120. 1 points per game.
The Thunder are favored by 5. 5 points, but the SportsLine Projection Model thinks the Spurs have a good shot at covering the spread. The Over/Under is set at 234. 5, so expect a high-scoring game. But the Thunder and Spurs aren't the only show in town. The Lakers and Suns are also facing off, and the Knicks are taking on the Timberwolves.
It's not just basketball, though. The NHL has some exciting matchups, like the Red Wings vs. Stars and the Hurricanes vs. Panthers. And if you're into college sports, the Villanova vs. Seton Hall rivalry is heating up again. Plus, the UNLV vs. Ohio bowl game wraps up the college football season.
