3 Best Prop Bets for Thunder vs Cavaliers NBA Game on FanDuel Sportsbook Best Oklahoma City Thunder vs Cleveland Cavaliers prop bets for NBA game on Saturday, January 22, 2022.
Assigned to G League Wiggins is out for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, as he was assigned to the G League on Saturday, Andrew Schlect of The Athletic reports.
Impact This is pretty significant news, as Wiggins has appeared in the last 15 games for the Thunder, averaging 10.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.5 minutes. However, Wiggins is a two-way player, so he has limited NBA days available. As a result, we could see him bounce back and forth between the two clubs more often unless the organization decides to sign him to a standard deal.

Solid production in return Williams (COVID-19 protocols) played 16 minutes off the bench and tallied seven points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and three assists Friday in the Thunder's 121-98 loss...
Impact Aside from his poor shooting from the field, Williams turned in a strong outing in his return from a five-game absence while he was in the NBA's health and safety protocols. The 27-year-old may have had a slight restriction with his playing time while he works to regain conditioning, but he's unlikely to see his minutes spike from this level in any case while Oklahoma City has all its other key rotation pieces at full strength.

Bags another 10-day deal The Thunder re-signed Diakite on Friday to a second 10-day contract.
Impact Oklahoma City immediately plugged Diakite into its rotation upon signing his initial 10-day deal, as he appeared in each of the past four games while averaging 3.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12.0 minutes. He should continue to see backup minutes in the Thunder frontcourt while Derrick Favors frequently sits due to rest and minor injuries and while Aleksej Pokusevski remains in the G League.

Off injury report Williams (COVID-19 protocols) is off the injury report for Friday's contest against the Hornets.
Impact Williams has missed the past five games due to protocols but will return Friday. He could be on a minutes limit, though he typically only sees minutes in the low-20s anyway. Since the start of December, he's averaged 7.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.3 steals in 21.2 minutes.

Near triple-double in loss Giddey provided nine points (4-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds and eight assists in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 118-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Despite a poor shooting performance, Giddey picked up the slack in rebounds and assists, and narrowly missed a triple-double. It would have been his second one this season already, as Giddey accomplished the feat against the Mavericks on Jan. 2. The Australian's nine points Wednesday snapped a streak of eight straight games in double figures offensively.

Dismal shooting in Wednesday's loss Gilgeous-Alexander recorded 13 points (5-21 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 118-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Coming off a 34-point performance against the Mavericks on Monday, Gilgeous-Alexander struggled mightily from the field, shooting a mere 23.8 percent overall, but the Kentucky product still manage to record double digits offensively. It was also the guard's fourth time across his past seven outings in which he has failed to convert a three-point attempt. Gilgeous-Alexander will look to bounce back versus the Hornets, who are currently second worst in the league in opponent's points per game, on Friday.

Tallies 15 points Wednesday Dort produced 15 points (4-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and two rebounds over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 118-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Despite struggling overall from the field shooting just 30.8 percent, Dort recorded his seventh straight matchup with at least 14 points. During that span, the Arizona State product has averaged 18.0 points and has drained a total of 19 threes. Across the Thunder's 40 games this season, Dort is second on the team in scoring and minutes played.

Leads team with 19 points Wiggins totaled 19 points (8-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 118-96 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Wiggins led the Thunder offensively by posting his highest scoring total since dropping 22 points Dec. 29 against the Suns. His eight rebounds also tied a season best. The 2021 second-round pick has exceeded many expectations so far this season, as the guard is averaging 7.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists while shooting 47.8 percent overall.
