The Oklahoma City Thunder play host to the Philadelphia 76ers, at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Friday evening.

The Thunder (4-7) will look to snap a two-game losing streak, as they return home where they have won three of their last four and have a record of 4-3, so far this season. The Thunder are averaging 105.3 points per game, which is fifth lowest in the league, however, they are holding their opponents to an average of 106.0 points per game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is leading the Thunder with a team-high 20.1 points per game. Chris Paul is averaging 15.3 points, 5.5 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game.

Dennis Schroder gives the Thunder a punch off the bench, as he is averaging 14.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals per game.

Meanwhile, this marks the second game of a three-game road trip for the 76ers (7-4), which began with a loss in Orlando on Wednesday. After starting the season 3-0 on the road, the Sixers have dropped their last four road games. Joel Embiid (rest) missed the Sixers most recent contest but tallied 27 points, 16 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and a steal in his last game.
