Game Preview

The Oklahoma City Thunder have one of the youngest rosters in the NBA, but the players are looking like veterans this season. Just ask the Denver Nuggets, who would be riding a 10-game winning streak if not for Oklahoma City.

The Thunder rallied to win at Denver on Dec. 16, and now they return there for another matchup against the reigning champions on Friday night.

Oklahoma City has won its last two games and seven of the last nine, with one of those victories coming two weeks ago against the Nuggets when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander hit a turnaround jumper with a second left to win 118-117 after trailing by eight with 3:33 left.
