Jalen Williams's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hip) won't suit up on Sunday against the visiting Nets. He popped up on the injury report because of a right hip strain, so he'll miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. Fortunately, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (wrist) will return after a one-game absence. The team should also get expanded production from Aaron Wiggins, who had 12 points, six rebounds, and one steal as a member of the starting lineup on Friday versus the Dallas Mavericks. That should also apply to Luguentz Dort, Jaylin Williams, and Cason Wallace.

Oklahoma 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.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Jalen Williams (eye) was limited to 18 minutes in Wednesday's 105-101 win over Golden State. Oklahoma's utility man was hit in his right eye in the second quarter. Before exiting the contest, Williams was on his way to another big performance, racking up 13 points, six rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block. Cason Wallace started the second half in Williams' place. Wallace, who finished Wednesday's action with nine points, four rebounds, six assists, two steals, and three blocks, will likely play a larger role again if Williams can't play on Friday against the Lakers. Aaron Wiggins and Kenrich Williams might also see a bit more action.
