Luguentz Dort Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest
2 years agoOklahoma City Thunder small forward Luguentz Dort (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game vs. Memphis due to a left knee contusion. The absence will mark the first of the year for Dort, opening up minutes on the wing for Jalen Williams, Isaiah Joe and others. While multiple OKC players will see a slight uptick in value, so will Ja Morant, who avoids Dort's tenacious defense. While Dort has shot just 40.5% overall through his first 24 games, he is on pace for new career bests in rebounds (4.6), assists (2.3) and steals (1.2) per contest, making him a worthy addition in medium-sized or larger formats. His next chance to suit up comes Saturday against the Cavaliers.
