The Thunder's depth was evident, with significant contributions from Lu Dort and Jaylin Williams. Oklahoma City aims to close out the series on the road and advance to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 2016.The Denver Nuggets, facing elimination, rely heavily on Nikola Jokić, who delivered 44 points and 15 rebounds in Game 5.
