Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Not Suiting Up Wednesday
3 years agoThe Oklahoma City Thunder have ruled out point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. According to the injury report, he is dealing with right ankle soreness. However, the 20-52 Thunder are likely just trying to weaken their arsenal against the 20-53 Magic to help their tanking process. With SGA sidelined, we should see a lot of offense fall on the shoulders of rookie Tre Mann, who scored a career-high 35 points on Monday. He's a must-start player for the game. Aleksej Pokusevski should see a usage boost as well. He's startable if you can risk a potentially devastating field goal percentage.
