San Antonio took down Oklahoma City at home 130-110 Tuesday and 111-109 on a neutral-court battle as part of the NBA Cup on Dec. 13, covering as a 6.5-point and 10-point underdog, respectively. In Tuesday&#8217;s match, G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led OKC with 33 points on 14-for-22 shooting, and F Keldon Johnson, off the bench, scored a team-high 25 points for San Antonio.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Spurs have won 7 straight regular-season games, not including an NBA Cup Championship loss to the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/basketball\/nba\/teams\/new-york-knicks\/18\/\" data-autotag=\"8b753024-9401-4cc8-9e23-5a6cdca0282d\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">New York Knicks<\/a> on Dec. 16, and are 5-2 against the spread (ATS) in that span. They are 17-11-1 ATS on the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Thunder have traded off winning and losing over their last 6 games after a historic start to the season. Despite that, they have gone 3-3 ATS in that stretch and are 16-14 ATS on the season.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"gnt_ar_b_a__rb\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fubo.tv\/stream\/tv\/?irad=343747&amp;irmp=1205322&amp;subId1=USAT&amp;subId2=NBA&amp;subId3=2025\" data-v-afl=\"\" data-t-l=\":body nav - reviewed button|outbound links|buy now click|www.fubo.tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\">Watch the NBA on Fubo!<\/a>Spurs at Thunder odds<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Provided by <a href=\"https:\/\/mediaserver.betmgmpartners.com\/renderBanner.do?zoneId=1731778\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">BetMGM Sportsbook<\/a>; access <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/basketball\/nba\/scores\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub<\/a> for a full list.

They have scored at least 124 points in 3 straight games, so their offense has been efficient, even against a quality defense like OKC. San Antonio is 6-2 ATS in its last 8 regular-season games as an underdog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Thunder seem to have lost some of their identity, especially offensively. They have scored 122 or fewer points in 5 straight games. From Nov. 28 to Dec. 10 (6 games), they topped that amount in every game. Something has been off, and against a lengthy team like San Antonio, it might be hard to separate by a significant margin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Take SPURS +9.5 (-110).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">BET UNDER 234.5 (-110).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">These teams know each other well, and this should be a highly competitive game with Christmas Day games being what some consider the kicking off of the season. The Thunder have gone Under in 3 of their last 5, allowing 112 or fewer in 8 of their past 9 contests.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Spurs are just 2-3 O\/U in their last 5 regular-season games, allowing 113 points or fewer in each. Considering the defensive strengths and that this should have heightened competitiveness, take UNDER 234.5 (-110).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">For more sports betting picks and tips, check out <a href=\"\/\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ftw.usatoday.com\/betftw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Follow SportsbookWire on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SportsBookWire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sportsbookwire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hoopshype.com\/rumors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">HoopsHype<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/celticswire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Celtics Wire<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/netswire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/rocketswire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sixerswire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/okcthunderwire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/warriorswire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| <a href=\"https:\/\/lebronwire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/therookiewire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thelistwire.usatoday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_ld_p\">Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
