Oklahoma City Thunder: 5 Games To Watch In November
By Joshua Lea
4. Oklahoma City vs Detroit, Nov. 26
This will mark the second time that Reggie Jackson has returned to Oklahoma City since the fallout between him and the Thunder. However, it was announced in early October that Jackson will miss six to eight weeks recovering from a procedure to treat tendinitis in his knee.
It is unclear if Jackson will be healthy enough to play in this game.
There’s hope that he will. As the Oklahoma City Thunder faithful have such discontent for Jackson. The Pistons; however, have the same roster they had last season when they made the playoffs. The Pistons will be drastically different without Jackson’s leadership.
Former Thunder player Ish Smith will take the point guard position without Jackson sidelined.
Either way, this game should be a walkthrough for the Thunder. The Pistons don’t pose much of a threat to the Thunder defense. The Andre Drummond-Steven Adams matchup will be fun to watch, but all eyes will be on Russell Westbrook and Jackson if he makes the trip.
