Golden State Warriors (25-24) at Oklahoma City Thunder (24-25)
The Warriors will be looking to extend their winning streak to 3 games on Tuesday. They're coming off 2 straight wins at home over the Grizzlies by 2 and Raptors by 12. Curry has been dominant in both victories with an average of 34.5 pts and recorded a double-double against the Raptors on Saturday. Their road form has been getting better lately so they will start as comfortable favs in this matchup. In lineup news, they should go with the same starting 5 as there are no major injuries to report.
The Thunder are coming off a nice win over the Cavs on Saturday at this venue. In the 112-100 victory, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander totalled 35 pts and he's now hit the 30+ pt mark in 4 straight outings. He'll be the key in this matchup as well, especially with a few injuries in the Thunder lineup. Dort, Pokusevski and Robinson-Earl are all out for this matchup. So that will give their bench rotation more minutes.
The total in this one looks a tad high considering the trends. The Under has saluted in 7 of the last 9 meetings at this venue. The Thunder are also 5-1 against the Under in their last 6 and come off allowing just 100 pts against the Cavs. So hopefully their defence can continue against the Warriors.
Stadium Record
Oklahoma City are 7-3 in their last 10 on home court. Golden State are 8-3 at this venue.
Head to Head Record
The Warriors have won 7 of the last 10 meetings since 2019.
Best Bet
Sacramento Kings (27-21) at Minnesota Timberwolves (27-25)
The Kings will be on a back-to-back in Minnesota and will look to avenge Sunday's 7 pt loss. As a team, they shot just 27% from three compared to 45%, so that will be an area of focus. De'Aaron Fox led the scoring for the Kings in the loss with 29 pts and is now averaging 30 pts in his last 2 road games. Sabonis also comes off a double-double and has recorded a triple-double in 2 of his last 5 games. In lineup news, the Kings will likely go with the same starting 5.
The Timberwolves are starting to heat up after 3 straight wins. They're also looking for a 5th win on the trot at this venue. In Sunday's win over the Kings, Anthony Edwards continued his fine form with 34 pts and 10 boards for a double-double. He's scored 30+ pts in 4 of his last 5 games and should enjoy facing the Kings leaky defence again.
With a 9-1 home record in their last 10 and having just beat the Kings a few days ago, the T-Wolves look great value. Edwards is on fire as well and he should lead Minnesota to their 4th straight victory.
Stadium Record
Minnesota are 9-1 in their last 10 at home. Sacramento has lost 7 of their last 8 in Minnesota.
Head to Head Record
The T-Wolves are 6-4 in this matchup since 2019.

Atlanta Hawks (25-25) at Portland Trail Blazers (23-26)
The Hawks will be looking to find some consistency in Portland on Tuesday after just 1 win in their last 4 games. They come off a disappointing 120-113 loss in Atlanta as they let an 11 pt lead slip away. Trae Young was a standout in the loss as he finished with 31 pts and has scored 30+ in back-to-back games. However, he's questionable for this matchup with an ankle injury. So that will be something to monitor before tip-off.
The Trail Blazers will also be looking to bounce back after an 18 pt loss at home on Sunday against the Raptors. This will also be their last home game before a 3-game trip so they should be keen to end this home stand with a win. After a 60 pt outburst against the Jazz, Damian Lillard still finished with 30 pts despite the loss against Toronto. He's hit the 30+ pt mark in 3 straight games and should enjoy a favourable matchup against the Hawks struggling defence. In team news, Nurkic and Hart are both questionable. They both missed the game against the Raptors but the extra rest may help their cause.
Both sides have a few injury concerns but the Trail Blazers record against the Hawks at this venue should be the difference. They're 5-0 ATS when they host the Hawks and Portland has covered in 10 of their last 15 at home. Lillard should get past the 30-point mark and guide his side to a victory.
Stadium Record
Portland are 5-5 in their last 10 home games. Atlanta has lost their last 5 in Portland.
Head to Head Record
The Trail Blazers are 6-4 in the last 10.
