Oklahoma City has lost seven in a row and is only 2-3-2 ATS in that span, including a 113-110 overtime loss to Indiana on Friday. The Thunder barely average 100 points per game, shooting 41.6 percent overall and 31.2 percent on 3-pointers. Now the Thunder are without their best player as Shai Gileous-Alexander is out with an ankle injury. This is the first meeting this season, but Portland won by 48 points in the last meeting in 2020-21. The Trail Blazers shot 51.8 percent on Sunday, but Chicago did even better shooting 55.5 percent in beating the Trail Blazers 130-116. Portland has covered four straight after a loss and five of its last seven on the road. Make it a Max Play on the Trail Blazers.
