Jalen Williams Jalen Williams records 18 points, eight assists
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 5:26 PM
Jalen Williams amassed 18 points (8-of-16 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal in Friday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: Williams' eight assists were two shy of his season-high, which he last recorded in a January 15 win over the Rockets. J-Dub shot 50 percent from the field, finishing a blocked shot and a three-pointer shy of a complete stat line. Unfortunately for Williams and the fantasy managers rostering him, injuries have limited his impact for most of this season. But all will be forgotten if he can get on a roll during these fantasy playoff weeks. |

Cason Wallace Cason Wallace hits five triples, scores 21 points
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 5:25 PM
Cason Wallace recorded 21 points (8-of-11 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, three steals, one block and five three-pointers in Friday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: While Shai Gilgeous-Alexander failed to find his groove from deep, missing all 10 of his three-point attempts, Wallace picked up the slack. He made five of his seven attempts from beyond the arc, with the five triples being two shy of his career-high. Entering Friday, Wallace shot 5-of-27 from distance, so this performance was clearly needed. The Thunder host the Knicks on Sunday to end their Week 22 schedule. |

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leads OKC with 25 points
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 5:24 PM
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander finished Friday's win over the Bulls with 25 points (8-of-24 FGs, 9-of-12 FTs), two rebounds, five assists and three blocks.
Analysis: Gilgeous-Alexander extended his streak of games with at least 20 points, but Friday night was a struggle. The reigning league MVP missed all ten of his three-point attempts in his worst shooting night of the season. A solid night at the foul line boosted Gilgeous-Alexander's point total, but he'll look to be much better when the Thunder host the Knicks on Sunday. |

Cason Wallace OKC starting SGA, Wallace, Dort, JDub, Hartenstein
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 1:44 PM
Brandon Rahbar
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Cason Wallace, Luguentz Dort, Jalen Williams and Isaiah Hartenstein will start against the Bulls on Friday.
Analysis: Wallace will get the starting nod with Chet Holmgren (hip) sidelined for this game. Wallace has been a reliable source of steals when starting, though his offensive upside will be capped with the rest of the lineup healthy. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren (hip) out Friday vs. Bulls
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 9:19 AM
NBA Injury Report
Chet Holmgren (hip) is out for Friday's matchup with the Bulls.
Analysis: Holmgren has appeared in seven straight games, but he'll sit out against Chicago while dealing with a right hip contusion. Holmgren's absence frees up more playing time for Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe, but Jaylin Williams could be the biggest beneficiary from a fantasy standpoint. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren finishes defeat with 10 points
Wed, Mar 25, 2026, 4:36 PM
Chet Holmgren shot 3-of-7 from the field and 3-of-4 from the foul line in Tuesday's loss to the Celtics, scoring 10 points with five rebounds and one three-pointer.
Analysis: The Thunder did not get much production from players not named Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on Wednesday, including Holmgren. The ten points were the fewest he's scored in a game in a month, having tallied seven points in a February 24 win over the Raptors. Nights like Wednesday have not been the norm for Holmgren, who has provided fourth-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. He'll look to bounce back when the Thunder host the Bulls on Friday. |

Luguentz Dort Luguentz Dort hits four three-pointers vs. Boston
Wed, Mar 25, 2026, 4:35 PM
Luguentz Dort accounted for 14 points (5-of-9 FGs), five rebounds, one block and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: In his prior five appearances, Dort shot a combined 6-of-33 from the field overall and 5-of-26 from beyond the arc. To say he needed a night like Wednesday would be a serious understatement. Dort was 4-of-6 from deep against the Celtics. While the defensive production was limited, category-league managers will take the three-point production, which has not always been there for Dort. |

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scores game-high 33 points
Wed, Mar 25, 2026, 4:35 PM
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander amassed 33 points (10-of-12 FGs, 10-of-12 FTs), two rebounds, eight assists, two steals and three three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: While Gilgeous-Alexander managed to extend his 20-point streak by halftime, he did not attempt a free throw during the first half. The reigning MVP was a frequent visitor to the line after the intermission, which factored into him surpassing 30 points for the third time in five games. Add the assists and steals, and Wednesday was an excellent night for managers rostering Gilgeous-Alexander. The Thunder play two more games in Week 22, starting with the Bulls on Friday. |

Isaiah Hartenstein Isaiah Hartenstein has 10/12/5 line in win Monday
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 3:50 PM
Isaiah Hartenstein had 10 points (5-of-7 FGs), 12 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in Monday's win over the 76ers.
Analysis: Hartenstein was one point away from a triple-double with 20 rebounds in Saturday's win over the Wizards. He didn't have quite as good of a game on Monday against the 76ers, but he put up another double-double. The Thunder have three more games in Week 22, but only one is attached to a back-to-back, which should be beneficial for his availability. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren has 17/9/4 line in win over 76ers
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 3:41 PM
Chet Holmgren had 17 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds, four assists, five blocks and three three-pointers in Monday's win over the 76ers.
Analysis: Holmgren was just one rebound away from securing his third double-double in his last four games. The 23-year-old center was excellent with 17 points and four assists on offense and even had five blocks on the defensive end. Holmgren was 3-of-4 from behind the three-point line after only attempting five three-points over his last three games. He's provided top-15 per game value over the last two weeks. |

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has 22/5/5 line in win
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 3:38 PM
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 22 points (9-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, five assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer in the Thunder's 123-103 victory over the 76ers on Monday.
Analysis: Gilgeous-Alexander was coming off a 40-point performance in Saturday's win over the Wizards. The 27-year-old point guard wasn't able to sustain that level of scoring and had 22 points on 13 attempts in 29 minutes. Gilgeous-Alexander has provided fifth overall per game value over the last two weeks. The Thunder have three more games in Week 22, the next coming on Wednesday against the Celtics. |

Jalen Williams Update: Jalen Williams starting vs. Philadelphia
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 12:54 PM
NBA Injury Report
Updating an earlier blurb, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luguentz Dort, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein will start Monday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: The initial lineup announced by the Thunder had Williams coming off the bench in his first game since February 11. He will start, with Cason Wallace heading to the bench. The other change is Dort, who's back after a one-game absence. He'll step into the void left by Ajay Mitchell, who's serving a one-game suspension after being ejected from Saturday's win over the Wizards for his role in a second-quarter altercation. |

Luguentz Dort OKC: Dort, SGA, Chet, Cason, Hartenstein, to start
Mon, Mar 23, 2026, 12:39 PM
Rylan Stiles
Luguentz Dort, Cason Wallace, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein will start Monday vs. 76ers.
Analysis: Dort will return to the rotation and the starting lineup on Monday, joining the usual four starters in his first game back following a two-game absence. The Thunder has been the league's hottest team, and will have a chance to earn a 12th consecutive win on Monday. They enter with the NBA's best record. |

Luguentz Dort Luguentz Dort (knee) removed from injury report
Sun, Mar 22, 2026, 11:18 AM
NBA Injury Report
Luguentz Dort (knee) is off the injury report for Monday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Dort is back after sitting out Saturday's win over the Wizards with a left knee contusion. His return coincides with Ajay Mitchell's one-game suspension, so Dort can slide back into the starting five with ease. |

Jalen Williams Report: Jalen Williams (hamstring) to return Mon.
Sun, Mar 22, 2026, 11:03 AM
Brandon Rahbar
Daily Thunder's Brandon Rahbar reports that Jalen Williams (hamstring) will be available for Monday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Williams has been out for over a month, last appearing in a game on February 11. While his playing time is likely to be limited on Monday, J-Dub's return at this stage in the season is great news for fantasy managers competing for a league title. With Ajay Mitchell suspended for Monday's game due to his role in an altercation during Saturday's win over the Wizards, Williams can absorb some of those minutes. |

Isaiah Hartenstein Isaiah Hartenstein corrals 20 rebounds vs. WAS
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 1:58 PM
Isaiah Hartenstein finished Saturday's win over the Wizards with nine points (4-of-7 FGs, 1-of-4 FTs), 20 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals.
Analysis: Hartenstein's struggles at the foul line cost him the second triple-double of his NBA career. Back in the Thunder lineup after missing Wednesday's win over the Nets, the 7-footer was dominant on the glass and also provided excellent value as a playmaker. The Thunder's four-game Week 22 does not have a back-to-back until its conclusion, which should bode well for Hartenstein's availability. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren records 18 points, 10 rebounds
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 1:57 PM
Chet Holmgren tallied 18 points (6-of-9 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), 10 rebounds and two blocks in Saturday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Holmgren finished Saturday's victory with his second double-double in three games. An interesting trend recently has been his decreased three-point attempts. Holmgren has attempted a total of five three-pointers over his last three appearances, missing them all. Given what else he brings to the table, this isn't a major problem. However, it is something to watch during Oklahoma City's four-game Week 22. |

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Shai Gilgeous-Alexander goes off for 40 points
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 1:57 PM
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander accounted for 40 points (17-of-27 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Saturday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Gilgeous-Alexander finished Saturday's victory with his seventh 40-point game of the season, shooting well over 50 percent from the field. The foul shooting wasn't the best, but fantasy managers aren't going to lose any sleep over that. Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder play four games in Week 22, starting with the 76ers on Monday. |

Jaylin Williams Jaylin Williams, two other Thunder players tossed
Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 12:33 PM
Jaylin Williams, Ajay Mitchell and Cason Wallace were ejected for their roles in an altercation between the Thunder and Wizards.
Analysis: Williams and Washington's Justin Champagnie got into an altercation late in the second quarter, which would eventually involve players from both teams. In addition to those two, Oklahoma City's Ajay Mitchell and Cason Wallace were ejected for escalating the altercation. With the action spilling into the stands, the NBA may hand out a few suspensions in the coming days. |

Sat, Mar 21, 2026, 10:45 AM
Clemente Almanza
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Ajay Mitchell, Cason Wallace, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein will start Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Hartenstein is back after a one-game absence, but the Thunder remain without Luguentz Dort. Mitchell and Wallace remain with the starters, while Hartenstein's return pushes Aaron Wiggins to the bench. |
