Thunder vs Hornets predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 125, Charlotte 104
OKC continues to assert itself as the NBA’s most dominant team. Even without a go-to scorer in Jalen Williams, who has yet to play this season, the Thunder ranks sixth in the league in offensive rating (118.5). And even without an All-Defensive first team guard in Lu Dort, who has missed the last five games, it ranks first in defensive rating (103). None of that has slowed OKC down, and it should continue to roll against a struggling Charlotte team.
