The Cavs snapped Oklahoma City’s franchise-record 15-game win streak at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The Thunder will look to avenge that loss without Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren, who’s missed the past 29 games due to a pelvic fracture.

Although the Thunder have experience in using their small ball lineup, this matchup may prove to be a bit more difficult.

The Thunder have plenty of options. None will equate to Hartenstein but enough to survive this upcoming stretch. OKC has flexed its rubber-band-esque ability to stretch and transform its identity. It will be asked to do so again.
