Research checklist for Phoenix Suns at Oklahoma City Thunder

  • Check the final injury and availability reports for Phoenix Suns and Oklahoma City Thunder close to the start.
  • Check the final injury report and the expected starters before trusting a points or rebounds number.
  • Compare each player’s minutes in recent games against the minutes the number implies.
