Thunder vs. Nuggets Game Info
Oklahoma City Thunder (10-14, 7-6 Away) at Denver Nuggets (13-11, 6-6 Home)
Date: Friday, Feb. 12, 2021
Start Time: 9 p.m. EST
Venue: Ball Arena — Denver, Colo.
Coverage: Fox Sports Oklahoma, Altitude, NBA League Pass
The Thunder started off the 2020-21 NBA betting season very similar to how they did last year. Exceeding expectations and putting winning results together has taken a hit in recent days thanks largely to the absence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The Thunder have lost three of their last four games and will be without SGA once again in Friday’s game. The Nuggets have also been struggling of late. They snapped a three-game skid with a blowout win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday. It’s a bit of a surprise to see last year’s Western Conference runners-up sitting seventh in the Western Conference standings.
