Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets Preview:
Sunday’s matchup is the first of four meetings between Oklahoma City and Denver. The last time these teams went head-to-head was in the Western Conference Semifinals last season, with the Nuggets forcing seven games in the Thunder’s path to the NBA title.
The Thunder have won four of five regular-season games in Denver since the start of 2023.
Oklahoma City leads the NBA in both scoring and scoring defense and is on pace to set a franchise record in points per game. The Thunder could become just the second team in league history to lead the league in both, joining the 1948-49 Minneapolis Lakers.
