The Oklahoma City Thunder are on the road on Sunday afternoon as they take on the Denver Nuggets in Game 4 of their second-round series.
Oklahoma City enters Sunday’s game in basically a must-win situation as they try to avoid falling behind 3-1 in the series.
Of course, the Nuggets were able to steal Game 1 of the series in Oklahoma City before the Thunder came back and picked up a 43-point victory in Game 2.
Denver was then able to pick up a crucial overtime victory in Game 3 after another comeback in the fourth quarter.

Because of this, the Thunder now trail 2-1 in the series and they will look to even it back up on Sunday afternoon.
The good news for Oklahoma City is that they will enter Sunday’s contest with a clean injury report as they have only one player listed on it.
That player is rookie guard Nikola Topic, who has missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL that he suffered last summer.
Outside of Topic, the Thunder’s core is healthy and they will need their stars to step up big in Game 4 as they avoid falling into a 3-1 hole.
Of course, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren came up big in their Game 3 loss after Shai Gilgeous-Alexander struggled on the offensive end.

If they are able to get t another performance like they did out of Williams and Holmgren and if Shia can bounce back, they should have a great shot of tying up the series on the road before heading back to Oklahoma City.
On the other side, the Nuggets also enter Sunday’s game with a clean injury report as the only player on it is DaRon Holmes II, who has missed his entire rookie season due to a torn Achilles.
Fans can catch Sunday’s Game 4 matchup between the Thunder and Nuggets at 3:30 p.m. EST on ABC.
