Thunder's Adam Flagler: Out 4-to-6 weeks
Flagler has been diagnosed with a right fourth metacarpal fracture and will be re-evaluated in 4-to-6 weeks, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Flagler has been dealing with an injury to his hand since the last week of November, though it's unclear if this was a setback to his pre-existing injury. The Baylor product hasn't been much of a factor in Oklahoma City's rotation so far this season, as he was seeing the majority of his playing time for the G League Oklahoma City Blue.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Ruled out Tuesday
Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Williams will remain sidelined due to a right hamstring strain, and it's unclear when the third-year center will make his 2024-25 regular-season debut. The Thunder's next game will depend on the result of Tuesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal game, though it doesn't appear that Williams will be returning to the court anytime soon.

Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Posts another double-double
Hartenstein closed with 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Saturday's 119-109 win over the Pelicans.
Hartenstein was coming off a 16-rebound performance in the blowout win over the Raptors on Thursday, and the big man notched his sixth double-double in this one. He's posted impressive numbers in eight appearances, and he's firmly entrenched as the Thunder's starting center -- at least until Chet Holmgren (hip) is ready to return. Even though Hartenstein won't be asked to carry the team offensively, he's been producing enough on both ends of the court to remain a valuable fantasy asset in all formats.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Shines as two-way threat
Williams ended Saturday's 119-109 win over the Pelicans with 27 points (10-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists and four steals over 35 minutes.
Williams is among the league leaders in the steals department and has notched multiple swipes in all but two of his last nine contests. However, he does far more than contribute on the defensive end. Williams has also posted at least 20 points in four games in a row and eight of his last 10 contests. He's firmly entrenched as the Thunder's second-best offensive option behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but Williams' contributions in other categories boost his value even further.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Scores 31 points Saturday
Gilgeous-Alexander closed with 31 points (10-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 10-12 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes during Saturday's 119-109 victory over the Pelicans.
Gilgeous-Alexander has been one of the most productive players in fantasy this season, though by now, that shouldn't be a surprise. Even though the Thunder haven't been at full strength all season long, the star floor general continues to carry Oklahoma City on offense. Gilgeous-Alexander has scored at least 30 points in all but one of his last seven contests while also posting solid numbers in peripheral stats. Even though his impressive season might not receive enough attention given the numbers other star players have been posting, Gilgeous-Alexander continues to deliver first-round value across all formats.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Returning to second unit
Joe is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Joe delivered 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 21 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 victory over Toronto in a starting role, but he'll return to the bench with Cason Wallace moving back to the first unit. Joe is averaging 8.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game when coming off the bench this season.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Returning to starting unit
Wallace is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Wallace will return to the starting unit for this matchup while Isaiah Joe moves back to the bench. Wallace is averaging 7.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.8 steals per game in 11 appearances and 29.0 minutes per contest when deployed in a starting role.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Another absence coming
Williams (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Williams has yet to play this season, and the big man doesn't have a clear timetable for his return. His next chance to suit up will come against the Mavericks on Tuesday, Dec. 10.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Another well-rounded effort
Williams provided 20 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 victory over Toronto.
Williams has been an absolute stud across all formats this season, and he continues to deliver excellent value while being firmly entrenched as the Thunder's second-best option on offense behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Williams has also been remarkably consistent, reaching the 20-point mark in seven of his last nine appearances.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Productive in starting role
Joe supplied 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 21 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 victory over Toronto.
Joe and Cason Wallace have taken turns in the starting lineup this season. This was Joe's first start since Nov. 27 and ninth of the season. The former Arkansas standout has scored at least 15 points in three of his last five appearances, including his past two starts, and he seems to be trending in the right direction following a slow start to the campaign.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Another 30-point performance
Gilgeous-Alexander racked up 30 points (11-22 FG, 1-10 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 30 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 win over the Raptors.
Gilgeous-Alexander led the Thunder on offense in another blowout victory, and this performance extended what has been a very productive stretch for the star point guard. He's scored at least 30 points in five of his last six outings, averaging 32.7 points, 7.0 assists and 6.2 rebounds per game in that span while also shooting 52.2 percent from the field.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Posts well-rounded line in return
Caruso (hip) tallied eight points (3-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 17 minutes in Thursday's 129-92 win over the Raptors.
In his return from a five-game absence due to a right hip strain, Caruso brought his usual contributions in the defensive categories, but he also complemented the pair of defensive counters with some quality perimeter shooting. In his 13 appearances with the Thunder prior to his recent absence, Caruso had been converting at a lowly 20.5 percent rate from distance. If he can continue to bring that rate closer to the 40.8 percent he shot from three-point land as a member of the Bulls in 2023-24, Caruso could start to earn more minutes in a crowded Thunder wing rotation.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Moving back to bench
Wallace won't start Thursday against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The Thunder have been rotating players at the starting wing spot alongside Luguentz Dort throughout the season, but Wallace appeared to be gaining traction on the top unit after starting each of the previous three contests. However, after Isaiah Joe posted 19 points off the bench in Tuesday's win over the Jazz, he'll be rewarded with a move to the starting five while Wallace moves to the second unit.

Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Starting Thursday
Joe will enter the starting lineup in Thursday's game versus the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The 25-year-old will supplant Cason Wallace in the starting five on Thursday. In eight starts this season, Joe has averaged 9.5 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 steals across 25.5 minutes per contest.
