Oklahoma City Thunder DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is dealing with an ankle sprain and has been downgraded from questionable to out on Monday. While he sits out this matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks, Aaron Wiggins, Isaiah Joe, and Ousmane Dieng will receive a lot of opportunities. Wiggins started in their last game and scored 41 points while Joe and Dieng came off of the bench and received 24 minutes a piece. Wiggins and Joe would be the more consistent options for fantasy managers looking for streamers.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (wrist) is in danger of missing his second consecutive game due to a wrist sprain on Monday. He's officially listed as questionable for their matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. He's only been forced to miss two games so far this season despite popping up on the injury report a number of times. If he's unable to suit up again, Aaron Wiggins would likely join the starting five again and see big minutes. In their game against the Sacramento Kings, Wiggins filled in valiantly by posting 41 points, 14 rebounds, and three assists across 39 minutes.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Dort is set to return to the court after missing Sunday's contest due to a right knee issue. It was only a one game absence, so fantasy managers should expect Dort to have his regular workload on Wednesday. He hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season, but fantasy managers who have him rostered can safely get him back in their lineups on Wednesday. Aaron Wiggins will head back to the bench where he won't have as much streaming appeal.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Isaiah Joe (illness) will miss Thursday night's game against the Mavericks as the Thunder finish their back-to-back with a home game. This will be Joe's second straight game on the sideline after scoring 24 points on Sunday in a win over the Nets. Without Joe, Cason Wallace and Alex Caruso should continue to get more work in the backcourt. Wallace has been especially effective lately and is coming off a big game against the Jazz on Wednesday night when he racked up 13 points, four rebounds, and an assist in 36 minutes. Aaron Wiggins has scored double-digit points in three straight games as well and will also get more usage with Joe sidelined.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Isaiah Joe (illness) will not suit up for Wednesday's meeting with Utah. He is a late scratch for the contest due to an illness. Alex Caruso and Aaron Wiggins will have a chance to pick up extra shifts with Joe unavailable, while Jaylin Williams will be moved to the starting unit. The 22-year-old has averaged 10.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 3.0 assists over three previous starts this season. This should be another productive evening for Williams, as only Washington gives up more fantasy points to centers than Utah.
