See all of our experts' NBA picks for today's slate.
The Spurs have already shown they can hang with Oklahoma City after stealing Game 1 on the road, and getting +7.5 points tonight feels like too much value. San Antonio’s balanced offense and improved defensive intensity have created matchup problems for the Thunder, especially in transition.
The Spurs are also playing with confidence after winning five of their last six playoff games. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City could feel pressure to avoid falling behind 0-2 in the series. With the Spurs’ depth, pace control, and momentum, they should keep this game competitive from start to finish and comfortably cover the spread tonight.
