We’ll give you the latest point spread, moneyline odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

Advice and prediction

The Thunder have been good more often than bad in their last four games — two wins over the Lakers, very nearly beating the Los Angeles Clippers, but a 21-point loss to the Warriors — but they are still quite streaky. They fell behind by 26 points to the Lakers in one game and 19 in the other, and collapsed in the fourth quarter against the Clippers when Paul George started going off. The Spurs are not a team that would allow a big lead to slip away.

Oklahoma City would also have to limit Murray, who is practically averaging a triple-double and plays excellent defense. The Spurs are a top-10 team in steals and steals per game, which will put pressure on the young Thunder ball handlers.

One thing that could be good for the Thunder is the lack of dominant big on the Spurs. OKC can better use its small-ball lineups against San Antonio.

It’s tough to predict a Thunder win, even after these last games. I don’t think I’d bet on a victory until they’ve proven they’re consistent.

Prediction: Spurs 105, Thunder 99
