Jalen Williams has been ruled out as he continues recovery from a hip injury. Chet Holmgren has also been ruled out for “rest”. Aaron Wiggins listed as a game time decision with an illness.

Thunder vs. Pistons Prediction:

I like the Thunder to cover the spread on the road on Saturday night. Oklahoma City has won and covered in 4 of their last 5 games. On the road, the Thunder have covered in 4 straight games, including against the defending champ Celtics and the Memphis Grizzlies. The Pistons are the 2nd best team in the NBA ATS when playing on the road, with a 21-11-2 record. However at home this season, they are 16-16-1. The Thunder are one of the best teams in the NBA and they are led by one of the best players in the NBA in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. I’ll roll with them to cover a short spread against a team that is coming off of a tough loss against the worst team in the league.        

Thunder vs. Pistons Prediction: Thunder -5.5
