Thunder to face Mavericks in Tulsa as 2019 preseason schedule leaks

The Oklahoma City Thunder are still trying to find their groove again after dropping a fourth straight game to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday at home. 

However, it doesn’t hurt to begin looking ahead to the 2019-20 season. 

A little bit of the preseason schedule has been released for the Thunder as they will face Luka Doncic, Kristaps Porzingis, and the new look Dallas Mavericks on Oct. 8 from the BOK Center in Tulsa.

As for the Thunder right now, they now need to focus on getting back in the win column after the tough loss on Wednesday. 

The loss dropped the Thunder to the eight seed in the West which would set them up with a date with the Golden State Warriors in the first round of the playoffs. 

While that would certainly be entertaining with the Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant storyline, it’s a series the Thunder would like to avoid in round one.

They finish off a home-and-home series with the Raptors on Friday at 6:30 p.m. CT.
