Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:42 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Williams (hamstring) is not on the injury report for Monday's game against the Lakers.
Analysis: Injured during a January 17 loss to the Heat, Williams has been removed from the Thunder injury report for Monday's game. For Oklahoma City's most recent game, a February 7 loss to the Rockets, Aaron Wiggins was the fifth starter. Either he or Cason Wallace will head to the bench if the Thunder puts J-Dub into the starting five immediately. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren has double-double in loss Saturday
Sat, Feb 7, 2026, 12:39 PM
Chet Holmgren had 17 points (5-of-10 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), 14 rebounds and one three-pointer in Saturday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: Holmgren missed Wednesday's loss to the Spurs with a back injury, but this is his second double-double in a row going back to Tuesday's win over the Magic. The 23-year-old center has provided fifth-round per game value over the last two weeks, according to Basketball Monster. The Thunder have four games upcoming in Week 17, starting with a matchup against the Lakers on the road on Monday. |

Cason Wallace Cason Wallace has 23/4/4 line in loss to Rockets
Sat, Feb 7, 2026, 12:36 PM
Cason Wallace had 23 points (10-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, four steals and one three-pointer in Saturday's loss to the Rockets.
Analysis: Wallace continues to produce with the Thunder missing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who is out through the All-Star break at least. The 22-year-old guard led the Thunder with 23 points on 16 attempts and chipped in four rebounds and four assists. He also had four steals. Wallace is worth rostering in most leagues until SGA returns. |

Jalen Williams Jalen Williams (hamstring) ruled out vs. Houston
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 12:54 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jalen Williams (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: Williams has been out since suffering a strained right hamstring during a January 17 game against the Heat. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander also out, the Thunder will likely turn to Aaron Wiggins to step in as the fifth starter. He is worth streaming while the Thunder await the return of two of their star players. |

Alex Caruso Alex Caruso (adductor) removed from injury report
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 12:38 PM
NBA Injury Report
Alex Caruso (adductor) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: Caruso did not play in Wednesday's loss to the Spurs, one of many Thunder players who did not see action because it was part of a back-to-back. His return means fewer minutes for seldom-used reserves like Brooks Barnhizer and Chris Youngblood, who both played rotation minutes on Wednesday. |

Isaiah Hartenstein Hartenstein (eye) removed from injury report
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 12:31 PM
NBA Injury Report
Isaiah Hartenstein) (eye) is not on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: With Oklahoma City playing its second game in as many nights, Hartenstein was held out of Wednesday's loss to the Spurs. His return means that Jaylin Williams heads to the bench, with JayWill's streaming value taking a hit. |
|
Luguentz Dort Luguentz Dort (knee) not listed on injury report
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 12:31 PM
NBA Injury Report
Luguentz Dort (knee) is no longer listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: After missing Wednesday's game against the Spurs, Dort appears to be on his way back to OKC's starting lineup. His return will provide the Thunder with another elite perimeter defender and a floor spacer. He's unlikely to have much fantasy value, as has been the case throughout much of the season. |

Chet Holmgren Chet Holmgren (back) absent from injury report
Fri, Feb 6, 2026, 12:26 PM
NBA Injury Report
Chet Holmgren (back) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: Holmgren was one of many key contributors who missed Wednesday's loss to the Spurs, which was Oklahoma City's second game in as many nights. His return means that Kenrich Williams will head to the bench, where he's nowhere near as effective in fantasy basketball. |

Cason Wallace Cason Wallace records 13/3/5/3/1 line vs. SAS
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 6:11 PM
Cason Wallace recorded 13 points (6-of-16 FGs), three rebounds, five assists, three steals, one block and one three-pointer in Wednesday's loss to the Spurs.
Analysis: While he wasn't one of Oklahoma City's three 20-point scorers, Wallace recorded a complete stat line as the lone holdover in the starting lineup. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will be out until the All-Star break at least, and Ajay Mitchell is also out due to injury. As a result, Wallace will be worth rostering in some 12-team leagues. Even with the Thunder playing just one more game in Week 16, he's worth adding now due to the team's injuries on the perimeter. |

Kenrich Williams Kenrich Williams scores season-high 25 points
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 6:11 PM
Kenrich Williams finished Wednesday's loss to the Spurs with 25 points (9-of-18 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, one steal and four three-pointers.
Analysis: Williams recorded his second 20-point game, with the 25 being the most he's scored in a game this season. Add in the rebounds, and âKenny Hustleâ had a good night in San Antonio. His fantasy value moving forward depends on the availability of the Thunder frontcourt starters, but he'll be worth streaming when Oklahoma City is as shorthanded as it was on Thursday. |

Aaron Wiggins Aaron Wiggins posts 20 points, five steals vs. SAS
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 6:11 PM
Aaron Wiggins accounted for 20 points (7-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, six assists, five steals and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Spurs.
Analysis: Wiggins matched his season-high in steals, recording five for the second time in less than a month. Add in the points, assists and three-pointers, and this was an excellent night to stream the former second-round pick. Oklahoma City is off until Saturday, so there isn't a pressing need to add Wiggins immediately. That said, he'll have deep-league value with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Ajay Mitchell out. |

Isaiah Joe OKC starts Wallace, Joe, Wiggins, Kenrich, Jaylin
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 3:16 PM
NBA Lineups
Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, Kenrich Williams and Jaylin Williams will start Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Analysis: Between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's abdominal strain and other injuries, and with Wednesday's game being the second of a back-to-back, the Thunder are going with a new lineup against the Spurs. Joe and Wiggins offer higher ceilings than Kenny Hustle and JayWill, but each is worth streaming in deep leagues due to Oklahoma City's depleted roster. |

Mason Plumlee Mason Plumlee sent to OKC for Ousmane Dieng
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 9:31 AM
Shams Charania
Thunder acquired Mason Plumlee in exchange for Ousmane Dieng.
Analysis: Dieng has already been rerouted to Chicago. Plumlee will provide some depth down low, but he's past his days of impacting fantasy basketball. |

Ousmane Dieng Ousmane Dieng ruled out vs. San Antonio
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:57 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ousmane Dieng is away from the Thunder and won't play against the Spurs on Wednesday.
Analysis: Dieng is listed as ânot with teamâ, and with trade rumors swirling, it's possible Dieng could be on the move ahead of the trade deadline. He hasn't been a large part of the rotation for most of the season, and the only path to him making a statistical impact this season likely comes through a trade. |

Alex Caruso Alex Caruso (adductor) out second leg of B2B
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:55 AM
NBA Injury Report
Alex Caruso (adductor) has been ruled out against the Spurs on Wednesday.
Analysis: Caruso will be sidelined for the second leg of this back-to-back. Four of the five typical starters will also be out, with Cason Wallace, who is filling in for Jalen Williams, being the one who is available. Caruso's absence should open up minutes for Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe. |
|
Luguentz Dort Luguentz Dort (knee) sidelined vs. San Antonio
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:51 AM
NBA Injury Report
Luguentz Dort (knee) has been ruled out against the Spurs on Wednesday.
Analysis: Dort will join other Thunder starters on the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back. His absence will open up plenty of minutes and a starting spot, which will likely be filled by either Aaron Wiggins or Isaiah Joe. |
|
Isaiah Hartenstein Hartenstein (eye) ruled out vs. San Antonio
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:48 AM
NBA Injury Report
Isaiah Hartenstein (eye) has been ruled out against the Spurs on Wednesday.
Analysis: Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren (back) are both sidelined for the second leg of the Thunder's back-to-back. Jaylin Williams and Branden Carlson should fill out the center minutes, though only Williams will have any upside as a streaming option. |
|
Chet Holmgren Holmgren (back) ruled out vs. San Antonio
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:43 AM
NBA Injury Report
Chet Holmgren (back) has been ruled out against the Spurs on Wednesday.
Analysis: Holmgren played through the back injury against Orlando, but he'll sit the second leg of this back-to-back. Isaiah Hartenstein is out as well, so Jaylin Williams should start at center, while Branden Carlson should be available to fill out backup minutes. Williams should hold streaming upside as the primary center, even if the matchup is suboptimal. |

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander SGA (abdominal) sidelined through All-Star break
Wed, Feb 4, 2026, 8:13 AM
Shams Charania
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdominal) will be re-evaluated after the All-Star break.
Analysis: SGA was able to play in OKC's win over the Magic on Tuesday, but he'll now miss at least five more games entering the break. OKC has the best record in the league, but they've faced a ton of injuries already this season. The added rest will be good for SGA in the long run. Ajay Mitchell (abdominal) should start when he returns, but there will be plenty of minutes and usage for everyone available, including the recently-acquired Jared McCain. |

Isaiah Joe Isaiah Joe has 22 points, five threes in win
Tue, Feb 3, 2026, 5:44 PM
Isaiah Joe had 22 points (8-of-12 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), one steal and five three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Magic.
Analysis: Joe had 22 points and made five three-pointers in 23 minutes against the Magic on Tuesday. The 26-year-old shooting guard hadn't scored at least 20 points since November 11 against the Lakers. Joe can be worth streaming if the Thunder are missing multiple rotation players, but that isn't the case right now. |
