It's the first matchup of the season between the two squads. It also counts toward the 2025 NBA Cup West Group A standings.
The Thunder (17-1) have won nine in a row. They enjoyed some revenge in their 122-95 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 37 points and seven assists in three quarters.

It could be an ugly situation for the Thunder as their two All-NBA players are on the injury report. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) is questionable. Jalen Williams (wrist surgery) is out. Aaron Wiggins (adductor strain) is out. Nikola Topic (testicular surgery) is out. Thomas Sorber (torn ACL) is out. Branden Carlson (G League two-way) is probable. Brooks Barnhizer (G League two-way) is probable. Chris Youngblood (G League two-way) is probable.
Meanwhile, the Timberwolves are fully healthy. How lucky. Enrique Freeman (face mask) is available. Rocco Zikarsky (G League two-way) is out.
Tipoff from Oklahoma City is set for 6:30 p.m. CT.
