NBA's official injury report 

Coming into the night, the Thunder have an 8-12 record in their first 20 games, which has them as the 12th seed in the Western Conference.  

They are 3-7 in the ten games they have played on the road outside of Oklahoma.

While their record isn't good, they are only 3.0 games behind the Sacramento Kings for the sixth seed.  

As for the Pelicans, they are the fourth seed in the west with an 11-8 record in their first 19 games.

However, without McCollum (and Ingram doubtful), they will more than likely be playing without two of their three best players.

The Pelicans have been good at home, with a 6-3 record in the nine games they have hosted in Louisiana. 

They are only 2.0 games behind the Phoenix Suns for the first seed.

The Thunder have not been to the NBA Playoffs since 2020 (when they had Chris Paul), while the Pelicans lost in the first round of the 2022 NBA Playoffs to the Suns in six games.
