The last time OKC took to the court was against the Los Angeles Lakers on December 24th. Despite a valiant effort and leading for 3 minutes of game time, they fell short by nine points in a high-scoring affair, ending with 120 points against the Lakers' 129. Their two-point field goal percentage was an impressive 61 percent and they managed to sink 13 three-pointers. However, it wasn't enough as their opponents had an effective field goal percentage of over 60 percent.


Before that game, OKC faced off against another Los Angeles team –– this time emerging victorious over the Clippers with a commanding scoreline of 134-115. They led for almost 47 minutes and dominated every quarter except for one. Their offensive prowess was evident as they shot nearly 59 percent from the field and an outstanding effective field goal percentage of almost 68 percent.


In another notable performance earlier in December (19th), OKC secured a win over Memphis Grizzlies with a scoreline of 116-97. They led for more than forty-one minutes during this matchup and showcased their defensive skills by blocking ten shots while stealing eleven times from their opponents.


The upcoming game presents an interesting dynamic; while OKC's offense has been firing on all cylinders recently, it's worth noting that consistency is key in maintaining such high-level performances night after night. The Spurs will be looking to exploit any lapses in concentration or fatigue that may set into an otherwise solid Thunder lineup.


Fans should expect OKC's stars to shine bright once again but must also be prepared for any surprises that could come from San Antonio's side who will have home-court advantage this time around.


The scheduled date for this much-anticipated match is January 25th at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio at what would be equivalent to local Central Time zone evening hours due to timezone differences from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Fans can catch all action live on ABC nationally or tune into CW35 if you're watching from home territory or BSOK channel number six hundred seventy-five if following away from home.
