Oklahoma City is on a six-game losing streak and has lost 13 of its last 15 games overall following a 111-110 setback against Chicago on Monday.

Indiana is coming off an awful performance, allowing team records for points allowed and 3-pointers allowed in a 158-126 loss to Charlotte. The Pacers have now lost three straight games and 13 of their last 16 overall. They are returning to Oklahoma City, where they dealt the Thunder the largest margin of defeat at home in NBA history in a 152-95 win last May.

However, Indiana has been without three of its top four scorers recently. Myles Turner (foot) and Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) will remain out, while Domantas Sabonis (foot) has been upgraded to questionable. The Pacers have covered the spread in four of their last six games against the Thunder.
