OKC Vs LAC Dream11 And Probable Playing 5: Oklahoma strive to make things jittery for Clippers today with the two sides set to take the Western Conference by aplomb.

On a four game winning spree at the moment, LA Clippers look to have finally settled into their groove in 2020. After enduring an abysmal start to the new year, the side has gotten its house in order across the course of the last two weeks to keep itself abreast with Denver Nuggets in the battle for second spot.
41-19 at the moment after getting the better of Philadelphia 76ers in a high octane, edge of the seat thriller 136-130 win the last time around, LA Clippers come into today’s encounter with immense momentum in their ranks. And they know they’ll be requiring every bit of that confidence when they visit Oklahoma City Thunder on the day, a side which makes for a tricky opposition.
Although they were cut apart and ripped into shreds by Milwaukee Bucks in a horrendous 133-86 showing the last time around, Oklahoma will not be massively deterred by that result. They were on a rampant wining spree prior to that fixture to make massive strides and make a place for themselves in 6th position in the conference.
Probable Winner
What that defeat did do was expose Oklahoma’s weakness when defending infront of staunch attacking units. It’s a peril which the Clippers will be looking to capitalise on when they take on the home side on the day, one which should see them scram their way to a closely fought win.

OKC Vs LAC Dream11 Point Guard
With 18 ppg and 7.2 apg, Chris Paul has run the play for his side from the point guard position. The player has shown why he’s held in such high stature in the basketball fraternity with the player traversing possession past opposition’s with ease to string together imperious attacking plays for his counterparts.
Reggie Jackson also makes a way into our unit from LA Clippers. Ever since being handed over an escalated role by the club, the player has shown why he was so heavily touted to impress with his quick break points seeing the Clippers flourish.
OKC Vs LAC Dream11 Shooting Guard
Lou Williams will be embedded into our framework from the Clippers in this docket as the lone pick. His tenacity and eye for passes has not only seen him pile on the layups but also transition the ball from defence to attack with consummate ease for his outfit.
OKC Vs LAC Dream11 Small Forward
The Clippers top scorer with 27 ppg and the 7.4 rpg to go with them, Kawhi Lenard is someone who has utilised his ability to rake up triple-doubles to lead his side to a slew of wins. He’s taken centrestage for his side in the attacking gambit to become the mainstay of their attacking gameplan courtesy of his ability to open the zone and send down points from the deep.
Elsewhere, the one player makes way into our contingent from the home unit as well with us dwelling in Abdel Nader for this clash.
OKC Vs LAC Dream11 Power Forward
We’ll be opting for Mike Muscala from Oklahoma City Thunder over here. He’s featured only as a substitute but as the ties have traversed, he’s seen his role be elevated with the player having an innate ability to hover around opposition’s in their attacking sorties and pull off steals and blocks.
OKC Vs LAC Dream11 Centre
While his 12 ppg have been pivotal in sending down points in the paint for his side, what has stood out are the 9 rpg Steve Adams has for Oklahoma. If the unit is to keep alive its chances of coming out unblemished from the affair, his skill set in guarding and screening players will come to the fore, one we envision him executing today.
From the Clippers meanwhile, Maurice Harrell makes a way into our unit to round off our set of picks for the affair.
Star Player
Leonard will be our stay player with the player capable of registering a triple-double in this one.
