Joshua Bell: May 16, 2024

Our best bet of the day for Thursday May 16 takes place in the NBA as the Oklahoma City Thunder host the Dallas Mavericks.

Bet Of The Day May 16 – read on below for our reasoning behind today’s best bet.

Key Points

Oklahoma City has won eight of their last nine home games
Six of the Mavs last seven games have gone under the total match points line
The Thunder have won 11 of their last 13 games
OKC have won three of their last four games against Dallas.
Six of the Thunder’s last seven games have gone under 213.5 total points including three of four against Dallas this series.

Game five of the NBA Western Conference semifinals between The Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder heads to Paycom Center this Thursday.

The series is tied at two games each heading into this crucial game at home for the Thunder.

Oklahoma City has been a much better team when playing in front of their home crowd, winning eight of their last nine including a 22 point win to kick start this series.

In that game Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored a game high 29 points but it was an even spread from a large portion of the squad.

This has been a tight series so far and scoring has not been of a premium and I expect that to continue and with plenty to play for in a high stakes game 5 defence will be of a high priority for both teams.
