The Washington Wizards are fresh off of a tough game against the NBA Cup champion Milwaukee Bucks. However, the schedule doesn't get easier as they now have to play the runner-up Oklahoma City Thunder on the road.

The Thunder are the best team in the Western Conference with a 22-5 record. They have won 11 of their last 12 regular season contests, and their only loss came in a three-point defeat on the road against the upbeat Houston Rockets.

The Thunder have the league's best defensive rating, which should prove to be quite the test for the Wizards' league-worst offensive rating.

The Wizards are coming into the game as a massive underdog, but that's a familiar feeling for them. They know what it's like to embrace adversity, and they have to bring everything they have against a Thunder team that is built to beat them by a lot.

All the Wizards can do is come up with a game plan and do their best to execute while fighting tooth and nail to try and pull off the biggest upset of the season.
