American Hustle hand Thunder fourth straight loss in 175.36-125.94 rout

American Hustle cruised to a 175.36-125.94 victory to hand Thunder their fourth consecutive loss. Thunder grabbed an 18.84-point lead on Thursday, but it was all American Hustle after that. They were led by Marvin Jones Jr. (43.3 points) and Ezekiel Elliott (31.7). Darren Waller (36.6 points) and Sony Michel (22.4) led the way for Thunder in defeat. American Hustle (3-4) will look to rack up another win against Beetles mom, while Thunder (1-6) try to right the ship against Fuzzy Bunny Slippers.

The team finds itself on the outside looking in for the playoffs after averaging only 145.23 points per game through seven weeks, 8th-best in the league.
