Jalen Williams Now Questionable Versus Brooklyn
2 months agoOklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hip) is questionable for Saturday's game versus Brooklyn. The 23-year-old has had a fantastic 2024-25 campaign, averaging 20.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.2 assists, and 1.8 steals. He also hasn't missed a game. But a right hip strain could be enough to keep him off the floor, although it's possible the team is just looking to rest some of their core performers versus the 14-win Nets. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (wrist) also uncertain to suit up, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, Jaylin Williams, and Luguentz Dort could all see a boost in fantasy production.

Jalen Williams Not Ready To Return Wednesday
2 weeks agoOklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (hip) will remain sidelined on Wednesday against the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Thunder have a long list of absentees, including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (rest), which opens up playing time for Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, and Kenrich Williams.
