Israeli player Deni Avdija was instrumental in leading the Portland Trail Blazers to their second victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in less than 24 hours. Avdija starred in the game, contributing 28 points, 6 assists, and 4 steals to secure the 118-108 win against a team considered an NBA championship contender.

Similar to their previous encounter, the first half of the game was closely contested, with the lead changing hands multiple times. However, unlike the prior game where Portland established a significant lead in the third quarter, this matchup remained tight throughout the second half. In the fourth quarter, Avdija sustained a blow to his back and briefly lay on the court, but he recovered to finish the game without further issue.
