Oklahoma City Thunder Injury Report: All the latest health update of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, will the star player feature against Detroit Pistons?

The Oklahoma City Thunder are all set to host Detroit Pistons on Wednesday, April 2 at the Paycom Center. The main talking point from OKC Thunder would be whether their star player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will suit up against the Detroit Pistons or not. 

Will Shai Gilgeous-Alexander play against Detroit Pistons?

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the frontrunner for the NBA regular season MVP as he is expected to finish the season strong considering how tough the MVP race is with Denver Nuggets' Nikola Jokic. 

He is expected to suit up for the clash against Detroit Pistons as the team looks to record 70-win season in the NBA since 2015-16, when the Golden State Warriors notched up the record. There will be high pressure on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to perform at his peak against the Pistons as his biggest challenger in the MVP race, Nikola Jokic dropped a 60-point triple-double in a loss against Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday. 

In that match, Jokic registered 61 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in the double-overtime loss. So far this season, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 32.8 points, 5.0 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game. He is also shooting an impressive 52.2% from the field, including 37.5% from the three-point line and 90.1% from the free-throw line. He is also considered to be one of the most efficient players in the NBA right now. 

The Detroit Pistons are eyeing a spot in the playoffs for the first time since 2019 as they are placed fifth in the Eastern Conference with a record of 42-33 and are on a one game losing streak. On the other hand, the OKC Thunder are ranked first in the Western Conference with a record of 63-12 and are on a ten game winning streak.
