The Oklahoma City Thunder have established themselves this season with a balanced offensive and defensive approach. They average 121.5 points per game while conceding 107.2 points, placing them among the league's top teams in both offensive and defensive efficiency. The team's core strategy revolves around the dual threat of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren, utilising efficient passing (25.8 assists per game) to create opportunities inside and out. Their home record is particularly impressive, boasting a dominant 15-2 record. Despite the absence of role players such as Ousmane Dieng and Jalen Williams, the consistent scoring of Gilgeous-Alexander and Holmgren is enough to keep the system running effectively. The two have frequently dominated games this season, especially with Holmgren's interior protection and outside shooting abilities, which perfectly complement the Thunder's offensive and defensive strategies.
