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.

The Thunder announced Hartenstein will miss at least a week with a calf strain. Already without Chet Holmgren, OKC will likely rely on the small-ball approach it utilized earlier this season during the first time they were without a big.

The Oklahoma City Thunder return home and will host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday. "The Rematch" is the season's second matchup between the squads. OKC suffered a high-scoring loss to Cleveland on Jan. 8.
