ODDS:

The Thunder enter the day as 4.5-point favorites against the Orlando Magic, and the total over/under is 177.5 points according to FanDuel.

What to Watch:

The Oklahoma City Thunder are taking on the Orlando Magic in the NBA Summer League with plenty of questions.

If the Thunder still roll out Ajay Mitchell and Nikola Topic, they will steal the headlines of this game. Both of them offer a lot to pay attention to in the half-court office, while Topic's entire skillset is being put under a microscope at the Summer League.

Chris Youngblood has been an electric shooter for Oklahoma City, who has an open two-way pact. Can he continue to find success and have his play warrant him being in the leader in the clubhouse for that gig?

Brooks Barnhizer is off to a record-setting start at the NBA Summer League, combining seven and six steal games through two affairs in Vegas. The rookie should be able to continue the trend against the Magic.

FINAL WORD: 

The Oklahoma City Thunder are still in position to fight for the NBA Summer League title and how they match up with Orlando will be interesting.
