Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets in Game 5 of the second round of the NBA Playoffs on Tuesday night at Paycom Center. This Western Conference semifinal matchup is all tied up at two games apiece after OKC's 92-87 win Sunday in Denver.
The ping-pong balls didn't fall the Oklahoma City Thunder's way in the 2025 NBA draft lottery. OKC didn't acquire the Philadelphia 76ers' first-round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
Denver was last in the league in 3-point attempts per game during the regular season (31.9), but that number has jumped to 38.5 3PA in the four contests against OKC. In their first-round series versus the LA Clippers, the Nuggets fired up an average of just 29.0 3PA across seven games.
