Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Lindy Waters III (left foot) is out again Wednesday versus the Detroit Pistons.
Waters will miss a third straight game and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) will pick up a second consecutive absence. Isaiah Joe should draw another start and play extended minutes after scoring a career-high 33 points (11-18 field goals, 6-11 3-pointers, 5-7 free throws) in 32 minutes on Tuesday versus the Charlotte Hornets.
Joe, who scored 35.9 FanDuel points on Tuesday, has a $5,500 salary on Wednesday's slate. He has a plus draw versus a Pistons team allowing the third-most FanDuel points per game to opposing point guards this season. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Thunder have the third-highest implied total (121.5) out of 20 active teams today.
