Russell Westbrook suffered a small fracture of the second metacarpal in his right hand Thursday night. The play occurred when Westbrook seemingly got his hand caught on his teammate going up for a rebound. (ESPN)

Fantasy Impact:

There were very high expectations for Westbrook to start the season off hot. Although the extent of the injury and recovery time is not yet known, the fracture did occur on his shooting hand which is problematic. Sebastian Telfair took over in place of Westbrook and will be worth an add considering the lack of depth the Thunder have right now.
