Oklahoma City Thunder DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (hip) will not suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The highly-rated defender suffered a hip injury in Saturday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. Dort's exit from the lineup opens up a starting spot for Sunday's game. It may be filled by Aaron Wiggins (illness) if he shakes off a questionable tag before the game. Isaiah Joe and Alex Caruso are also among the candidates to start.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (rest) will return to the lineup on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The team has not included him on the injury report after Holmgren was rested for Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Kenrich Williams got the start in Holmgren's place and did a decent job with a 10-point, five-rebound effort. He will likely return to the second unit for Sunday's game. In his most recent outing, Holmgren had a big performance against the Boston Celtics, recording 23 points, 15 rebounds, two assists, and one block in a 118-112 win.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (hip) will remain out of the lineup for a third consecutive game on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. He injured his right hip at the start of the week and hasn't yet fully recovered. Cason Wallace has made back-to-back starts since Williams' exit from the lineup. He was very impressive in Saturday's win over the Detroit Pistons, supporting star man Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with 20 points. Isaiah Joe has also played a larger role lately, sinking five triples over the past two games while averaging 11.0 points in 29.0 minutes.

Oklahoma City Thunder center Chet Holmgren (rest) is out on Saturday against the Pistons. After spending nearly two months on the shelf, the 22-year-old has sat out at least one game in back-to-back contests, so he'll likely be good to go on Sunday versus Milwaukee. Jalen Williams (hip) is still out while Aaron Wiggins (illness) is questionable. As such, Isaiah Hartenstein and Kenrich Williams may take care of business at the four and five spots while getting more scoring opportunities behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Luguentz Dort.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hip) won't play on Saturday in Detroit. He strained his right hip in a recent loss to Denver and wasn't available for the 118-112 win over the Boston Celtics on Wednesday night. Aaron Wiggins (illness) got the start, although he went scoreless in 20 minutes of action. But with Wiggins questionable and Chet Holmgren (rest) out, Kenrich Williams, averaging 7.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in two starts this season, could find himself in the starting lineup. However, with OKC down two of the team's top scorers, Williams should be more productive, even if Wiggins is available.
