The Oklahoma City Thunder dominated the New Orleans Pelicans 137–106 on November 2 at Paycom Center, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading the way on 30 points and Andrew Wiggins adding 15 in a balanced offensive attack. Oklahoma City's efficiency was evident across the board: the Thunder shot 56 percent from the field and connected on 20 three-pointers while maintaining a 139.2 offensive rating, compared to New Orleans' 108.1. The Pelicans, led by Zion Williamson's 20 points and Trey Murphy III's 19, struggled offensively at 43.8 percent and committed 16 turnovers to Oklahoma City's 11. The Thunder's defense was suffocating, holding a 108.1 defensive rating and forcing steals at a 12-6 advantage. Oklahoma City's dominance was particularly pronounced in the opening half, outscoring New Orleans 75–52 through two quarters, and the Pelicans never recovered despite a slightly stronger third quarter. The Thunder's balanced attack—33 assists on 48 made field goals—and superior ball security underscored their control throughout. This victory reinforces Oklahoma City's status as a Western Conference contender while New Orleans faces questions about consistency and depth.
