October 24th: Recently, Garnett gave a media interview, in which he discussed the upcoming season: "If the Thunder can stay healthy, they will be tough to beat."
Speaking about his predictions for the next season's championship team, Garnett said: "I'm very optimistic about the Houston Rockets. They're in good shape and have some very good players, but the Thunder are tough to beat. A team like them with 11 of their 15 players in the rotation is tough to beat. If the Thunder can stay healthy, I'm not sure any team has a lineup strong enough to beat them."
Today's NBA regular season game between the Thunder and the Pacers has concluded. After two overtimes, the Thunder defeated the Pacers 141-135. In this game, Thunder player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander played 45 minutes, shooting 15-of-31 from the field, including 2-of-7 from three-point range, and 23-of-26 from the free throw line, finishing with 55 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block.
The Thunder will next face the Hawks on October 26.
