NBC/PeacockPaycom Center
Things to say

Thunder beat the Spurs 127-114 at Paycom Center.

01
opener
Thunder took care of business at home, 127-114. SGA was just cooking from the jump. Spurs hung around but never really had it.
02
key player
Shai went for 32 and 9 — dude's playing MVP basketball every single night.
03
hot take
Hartenstein with 15 boards is the reason OKC wins this. Spurs got eaten up in the paint.
04
deep cut
Stephon Castle dropped 24 for San Antonio — kid's gonna be a problem for a long time.
05
exit
Anyway, OKC at 64-18 now. Whoever draws them in the playoffs is in trouble.
The recap

OKC took care of business at home, 127-114, with Shai doing Shai things — 32 and 9, just an absolute clinic. Hartenstein was a monster on the glass with 15 boards, owning the paint all night.

Stephon Castle kept the Spurs hanging around with 24 buckets of his own, but San Antonio just didn't have enough firepower to keep up. Thunder roll to 64-18 and the Spurs take the L despite a solid 62-win season of their own.
