Steph Curry makes his return for the Golden State Warriors against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday.
The pregame narrative: Curry missed three games with an illness but is off the injury report ahead of this contest. It’s a tough matchup against the champs, but I still expect the best shooter of all time to be lights out from range.
Check out my Warriors vs. Thunder SGP predictions for Nov. 11, featuring Isaiah Hartenstein.

Warriors vs. Thunder SGP
Parlay: Thunder ML | Curry 4+ threes | Hartenstein double-double (+350)
Thunder moneyline (-295): OKC is at home and that instantly gives it the edge over any team in the NBA.
- The Thunder are 4-0 at Paycom Center to start this season.
- Last year, they had the best home record in the league (35-6).
But that’s just a little added juice to what’s an already amazing team regardless of location.

The Thunder have the best average point differential in the NBA (+13.5) led by the best defensive rating (104.5).
Even with Curry in the lineup, Golden State is failing to meet expectations this season with a mediocre 6-5 record.
It also doesn’t help that the Warriors are 1-5 on the road.
NBA SGP legs
Curry 4+ threes (-182): I’m not worried about the fact that Curry has missed a few games.
He was questionable for Sunday’s contest but didn’t get the green light, and that extra rest hopefully means he’s fully recovered now.
Prior to his absence, Curry hit four or more 3s in six of seven games. He should be able to pick up right where he left off.

As mentioned, OKC is the best defensive team in the NBA, but Curry was successful against them last season.
He went 2-0 against this line, hitting 12 of his 23 attempts from 3-point range in those games.
The Thunder also surprisingly allow the sixth-most 3s to opposing point guards (3.51/game), per Fantasy Pros.
Hartenstein to record a double-double (+125): I want to close things out with a high-value pick on the Thunder’s starting centre.
He’s been highly productive lately, posting six double-doubles in his past nine games.
Over that span, Hartenstein is playing close to 29 minutes per game while averaging 15.1 points and 12.0 rebounds.
The Warriors should have difficulty contesting Hartenstein for rebounds. Quinten Post is their tallest player at 7-feet but the centre only plays 16 minutes per game.
With Al Horford questionable, 6-foot-6 Draymond Green could be getting a lot of the minutes at centre. He’s a capable rebounder but is six inches shorter than Hartenstein, who’s a menace on the glass.
