The San Antonio Spurs are set to face the conference-leading Oklahoma City Thunder at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, following a tough month on the road. The Spurs recently ended a four-game skid with a clutch game-winning shot from De'Aaron Fox, securing a 130-128 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Fox scored the last 12 points for the Spurs, including a mid-range step back with under 2 seconds left, to eke out a 1-point win at the buzzer. The team will look to build on this momentum as they take on the Thunder, who feature the league's most prolific scorer, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and are currently first in the Western Conference with 48 wins and 11 losses.

The Thunder will be without Chet Holmgren due to an ankle injury, but are expected to be at close to full strength otherwise. The Spurs, on the other hand, will be without Charles Bassey, and Bismack Biyombo will be tasked with containing 7-footer Isaiah Hartenstein. Devin Vassell will also look to equal his quick start in Memphis with a similar surge against OKC. The game is scheduled to tip off at 6:00 PM (CT) and can be streamed on the NBA's official app. The Spurs are currently 13th in the Western Conference with 25 wins and 33 losses, while the Thunder are leading the conference with 48 wins and 11 losses.

The matchup between the Spurs and Thunder promises to be an exciting one, with both teams looking to come out on top. The Thunder's offensive prowess will be put to the test against the Spurs' defense, while the Spurs' clutch shooting will be crucial in securing a win.
