The Pistons magic number for clinching a spot in the Playoffs and avoiding the Play-In is now down to 1. That is the good news. The bad news is that they face the Oklahoma City Thunder on the road on National TV and they will be without 3 players for sure due to suspensions from Sunday’s brawl against the Timberwolves. Those three players are Isaiah Stewart, Marcus Sasser, and Ron Holland. They are also likely without Cade Cunnningham, who is listed as doubtful.
The injury report for Oklahoma City does not feature any of their regular rotation players which sets up the possibility of this being a very long night.
