Thunder Look To Bounce Back On Second Night Of Back-To-Back
The Oklahoma City Thunder play host to the Golden State Warriors at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Wednesday evening.

This marks the second game of a back-to-back for the Thunder (20-34), as they are coming off a loss in Utah on Tuesday night. The Thunder got out to a great start in the contest with a, 31-22, lead after one quarter, but they fell apart in the second and trailed by two at halftime. Their troubles worsened through the third quarter, as the deficit grew to 19 points, heading into the final frame. The Thunder kept up the fight in the fourth, but it was too little, too late, as they fell for a seventh straight loss and the ninth loss in their last 10 games. On the bright side, Luguentz Dort had a fantastic outing, as he poured in 42 points, seven rebounds, four steals and three assists, in 36 minutes. Moses Brown logged 12 points, 15 rebounds, two steals and a block, while Ty Jerome chipped in 14 points, two rebounds and two assists, in the loss. The Thunder will look to get back on track at home and add to their, 9-19, home record.

Meanwhile, the Warriors (26-28) have dropped six of their last 10 games, but they have won their last two in a row. This marks their first game of a five-game road trip, as they look to keep rolling and improve on their, 9-18, road record. Stephen Curry leads the team, averaging 30.4 points on 48.5 percent shooting, 5.9 assists, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game. Andrew Wiggins is the next-highest scoring player for the Warriors, averaging 18.0 points, on 47 percent shooting, including 38 percent from long range, Draymond Green is averaging 6.6 points, 8.4 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game. The Warriors do a great job of sharing the ball, as they are averaging 27.2 assists per game, which is second most in the league. However, they need to do a better job on the glass, as they are averaging 42.5 rebounds per game, which is seventh-fewest in the league.
