Thunder vs Pistons preview
There is still a possibility that OKC could reach an exclusive 70-win club in the regular season this year and all they need to do to achieve the feat is win their remaining seven games.
The leaders of the Western Conference and number one overall seed have been as good as ever with the season reaching its conclusion and they have coasted during a 10-game win streak that leads the league.
With games coming up against the Rockets and Lakers, there are more challenging head to heads for the Thunder to face on the road to 70 wins and the Pistons shouldn’t put up too much of a fight without Cade Cunningham.
Cunningham is currently doubtful on the injury report with a calf injury and he is unlikely to be rushed back with the playoffs just over two weeks away.
The Pistons have all but confirmed their spot in the postseason and all that is left to decide is if they will finish fifth or sixth with the Bucks lurking 1.0 game behind.
With back to back games against Milwaukee to close out the season, Detroit will just be trying to keep its Eastern Conference rivals at arms length ahead of a first postseason appearance since 2019.
