After a historic meeting last week, the league-leading Cleveland Cavaliers clash with the Oklahoma City Thunder again today – Thursday, Jan. 16 – at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The game is available to watch on multiple streaming services.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continued to make his MVP case with a dazzling 40 points and eight assists in just 29 minutes. Luguentz Dort dominated at both ends — his season-high 22 points and six 3s told just part of the story — and after Thursday’s game both the Thunder and Cavs have identical 34-6 records. But a much larger statement was made.

Here are three compelling storylines for the highly anticipated rematch. Cleveland's bonified superstar is undoubtedly Donovan Mitchell. Unfortunately, he had his worst game of the year in the Cavalier's first matchup with the Thunder.
