Thunder vs Jazz predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 116, Utah 108
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will be out for the first time this season. Alex Caruso, Lu Dort, Isaiah Hartenstein, Isaiah Joe, Thomas Sorber and Nikola Topić are also unavailable, meaning only eight players from OKC’s 15-man roster will suit up. But I’m still going with the Thunder, which will lean on its defense with players such as Jalen Williams, Cason Wallace and Chet Holmgren leading the way. It should also get enough scoring from that trio in addition to Ajay Mitchell and Aaron Wiggins.
