OKC vs LAL Dream11 Match Prediction
Lakers have an obvious advantage over the Thunder because of their experience and squad make-up but they can’t underestimate a young team in Oklahoma, who can catch one by surprise through their dynamism and energy. Hamidou Diallo has shined in the last few games and his emergence is a welcoming sign for the Thunder, however, it will be difficult to hold off the Lakers and the Thunder will need to perform at their best to eke out a win here. If the Lakers get hold of Shai, then the road for the Thunder to win this game will get even more troublesome.
