The Golden State Warriors will visit the Paycom Center to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in an enticing 2021-22 NBA season matchup on Tuesday (October 26).
The Warriors have been in solid form to start the season. They have won all three of their games so far and are the top seed in the West. The Dubs defeated the Sacramento Kings 119-107 in their previous game. Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole continued with their stellar form, combining for 49 points, 13 rebounds and ten assists.
Meanwhile, the Thunder are winless after their first three games of the season. They lost to the Philadelphia 76ers 103-115 in their previous outing.
However, the young backcourt duo of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey have looked in sublime form. The former tallied 29 points, six rebounds and eight assists, while the latter recorded 19 points, eight rebounds and seven assists against the 76ers.
