Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Will Return To Action Wednesday
2 years agoOklahoma City Thunder point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) has been removed from the team's injury report ahead of Wednesday's contest vs. Orlando, paving the way for him to suit up after a one-game absence. Even without Gilgeous-Alexander in the mix, OKC dropped a season-high 150 points Tuesday. A return from the league's fourth-leading scorer (30.8 PPG) will decrease the DFS value of many members of the Thunder backcourt, namely Josh Giddey, who will defer ballhandling opportunities to Gilgeous-Alexander. The 24-year-old is coming off a third consecutive month of elite fantasy production, as he has compiled at least a 33.1% usage rate across each of the season's first trio of months.
