Josh Giddey takes to the court again as his Oklahoma City Thunder searches for its first win of the season.
Golden State @ Oklahoma
October 27th 11:00am
Golden State Warriors has the opportunity to go 4-0 when it faces a young, developing Oklahoma City Thunder squad at Paycom Centre.
The Warriors have so far defeated both Los Angeles squads and Sacramento, while the Thunder, despite showing signs of a bright future, are yet to register a win.
Josh Giddey has been the talk of the town in Oklahoma after producing a career-best performance with 19 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in the loss against Philadelphia 76ers.
Giddey will face his toughest test to date when he comes up against Warriors champion Stephen Curry who has been building into the season at a steady rate.
Curry is still averaging 31 points per game through the first three games of the season and has guided his team to sit atop of the Western Conference.
Offensively, the Warriors rank sixth for points scored in the league to date, while the Thunder ranks second last.
With the Warriors firmly having their sights set on the playoffs and a potential championship tilt with their current squad, it is hard to see the Thunder matching it with them here.
Suggested Bet: Golden State Warriors -8.5 at $1.91
Leg 1: Golden State -8.5
Leg 3: S. Curry over 34.5 points
Combined odds = $7

Houston @ dallas
The 1-1 Dallas Mavericks take on the the 1-2 Houston Rockets at American Airlines Arena in the first of their four-game season series.
All eyes will be cast on potential rookie of the year Jalen Green after he posted 30 points, four rebounds and three assists in the loss to Boston.
Green was touted as one of the best picks in the draft and he showed exactly why against the Celtics as the rebuilding Rockets place a huge amount of hope in his development as a bonafide star prospect this season.
Dallas, meanwhile, will look to build on its 103-95 win against Toronto which saw Luka Doncic fire 27 points and dish up 12 assists.
Doncic proved himself as a genuine star of the league last season and will be the one likely to leave a lasting impression on this game.
The Rockets defence will need to be on its guard to keep this game respectable.
Suggested Bet: Dallas Mavericks -10.5 at $1.90
Leg 1: Dallas Mavericks -10.5
Leg 2: L. Doncic over 26.5 points
Leg 3: L. Doncic over 7.5 assists
Leg 4: K. Porzingis over 8.5 rebounds

Denver @ Utah
October 27th 1:00pm
Undefeated duo Utah Jazz and Denver Nuggets do battle for supremacy in Salt Lake City come Wednesday afternoon (AEDT).
The Jazz enter the game as a are strong favourite in this encounter, mainly due to this contest being Denver's second back-to-back games after facing the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday.
Utah has also won 13 of the previous 15 head to head duels at Vivint Smart Home Arena, which is a harrowing set of numbers for the Nuggets.
Despite the poor record, the Nuggets will have a glimmer of hope thanks to the form reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic.
The Serbian centre has been on fire averaging 29.5 points, 14.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists through his first two games.
However, the weight of numbers in favour of the Jazz from a team perspective might prove too much for one man, even in the realm of the Jokic, to handle.
The Jazz the number one ranked defence in the league at the moment and will prove a tough fort to get through.
Suggested Bet:Utah Jazz -7.5 at $1.91
Leg 1: Utah Jazz -7.5
Bet Now: jazz vs. nuggets
