Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Philadelphia 76ers Prediction: Injury Report, Starting 5s, Betting Odds & Spreads - January 12 | 2022-23 NBA Season

The Oklahoma City Thunder (18-23) are coming into tonight's game off the back of a 112-111 loss to the Miami Heat. Their opponents tonight, the Philadelphia 76ers (25-15), most recently secured back-to-back wins over the Detroit Pistons.

The Thunder have been very inconsistent this month. They managed to thrash the usually dominant Boston Celtics but came undone against the ailing Orlando Magic. What has been consistent is the exceptional offense of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The 76ers, meanwhile, are 5-1 in their last six games.

Thunder vs. 76ers Prediction

These two teams already faced off late last month. There, the 76ers came out victorious 115-96. The Philadelphia outfit have been on fire lately, with Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid dominantly leading the offensive charge. Their recent 147-116 thrashing of the Pistons highlighted the team's commendable skill on both ends of the court.

The Thunder, meanwhile, are a topsy turvy team with inconsistent defensive ability. While Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey will give the 76ers trouble, the team overall will likely crumble under the 76ers' offensive pressure. With several injuries on their roster as well, the Thunder could be in a rough game tonight.

Prediction: 76ers -9.5 (-110)
