The OKC Thunder and Phoenix Suns are scheduled to face off tonight in an all Western Conference matchup at the Phoenix Suns Arena.
OKC Thunder have had a topsy-turvy season so far. They lost three straight games before beating the Portland Trail Blazers 125-122 in their last matchup on Monday night. With the franchise in a full rebuild mode, many around the league expect OKC Thunder to be out of the playoff picture for the next couple of years at least. Currently they sit 12th in the Western Conference with a 7-9 record.
On the other hand, Phoenix Suns led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker started the season on a high note but have started to stumble in the past few days. They are currently on a 2-game losing streak, having last won a match against the Houston Rockets on 20th January. They are 7th in the conference with an 8-7 record.
