Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder look to improve on their 10-4 record this week and extend their lead in the Northwest division, as the Thunder are set to play another two games in the next four days.
Oklahoma City will play host to the Charlotte Bobcats on Monday. Charlotte enters the contest with a 7-5 record, and trail the Miami Heat by 2.5 games in the Southeast division. With seven wins already this season, the Bobcats have matched their 2011-12 total, when the Bobcats went just 7-59.
On Thursday, the Thunder will play host to the Houston Rockets. James Harden will return to Oklahoma City for the first time since being traded by the Thunder prior to the season. Houston's record currently stands at 6-7, but the Rockets will play host to the Toronto Raptors (3-11) on Tuesday night, and will likely be 7-7 headed into Thursday night's contest against the Thunder.
