The Tuesday NBA action features a highly anticipated matchup between superstar point guards Stephen Curry and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Although the number of games decreases from nine on Monday to six on Tuesday, notable contests remain, including this Western Conference showdown.
Golden State Warriors will visit the Oklahoma City Thunder in a game that could hint at a postseason preview. The matchup between two of the league’s top guards tips off at 8:00 p.m.
This game marks the 271st regular-season meeting between the Warriors and Thunder. Oklahoma City currently leads the series 146-124, but Golden State holds the upper hand in recent playoff memory with a notable victory in the 2016 Western Conference Finals.
The Warriors have consistently secured between 44 and 48 wins per season over the past three years. Their 48-34 record in 2024 was boosted by acquiring forward Jimmy Butler, despite eventually falling in the Conference Semifinals. This season, Golden State has started with a somewhat unstable 6-5 record.
