Oklahoma City Thunder

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the Thunder offense Thursday night, exploding for 40 points (17-26 FG, 1-5 3PT, 5-5 FT) while also dishing out eight assists, recording two steals, and grabbing three rebounds in a 134-114 win over the Cavaliers.

Fantasy Impact: Gilgeous-Alexander continues an impactful stretch on both ends of the floor, dishing out two or more assists, grabbing three or more rebounds, and scoring 27 or more points in each of his last five games. The talented guard continues to offer elite-level production as part of an explosive Oklahoma City starting five, averaging 31.6 points, 6.0 assists, and 5.4 rebounds per game while carrying a 32.9% usage rate so far this season.

Jalen Williams stuffed the stat sheet for the Thunder Thursday night, dishing out five assists, recording three steals, grabbing six rebounds, blocking two shots, and scoring 19 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3PT, 2-2 FT) in a 134-114 win over the Cavaliers.

Fantasy Impact: Williams continues a solid stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with at least two assists, four rebounds, and 17 points in each of his last four games. The 23-year-old remains a dynamic lineup option as part of an explosive Oklahoma City starting five, averaging 20.6 points, 5.2 assists, and 5.7 rebounds per game while posting a usage rate of 26.8% so far this season.

Cason Wallace scored 18 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with five rebounds, four assists and one steal in the 118-102 win for the Thunder over the 76ers.

Fantasy Impact: Wallace posted a season-high in points as he continues to take advantage of his recent opportunity. He'll look to continue to take advantage of his playing time in Thursday's rematch against the Cavaliers.

Fantasy Impact: Caruso has been sidelined for several weeks due to a hip injury that he was dealing with, but he has recovered well and has been removed from the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game. He should play against the 76ers, and his return will mean less work for Cason Wallace moving forward.

Fantasy Impact: Mitchell recently suffered a toe injury and will be out for OKC's game against the 76ers on Tuesday. He doesn't get much work for the Thunder even when healthy, so fantasy managers shouldn't put much weight into his availability for the foreseeable future.

Isaiah Hartenstein recorded a double-double with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, and 2 assists in 22 minutes. His physical presence in the paint helped Oklahoma City dominate the boards.

Fantasy Impact: Hartenstein’s rebounding and efficiency make him a solid streaming option in deeper leagues, especially for managers in need of big-man stats.

Aaron Wiggins contributed to a balanced scoring attack as the Oklahoma City Thunder cruised to a 116-98 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. Wiggins tallied 9 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 4 rebounds, and 2 assists in 28 minutes of play.

Fantasy Impact: Wiggins provided solid production off the bench for the Thunder, showcasing his efficiency and ability to contribute in multiple categories. While not a flashy performance, his contributions were valuable in a game where the Thunder dominated. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should keep an eye on Wiggins as a potential streaming option or bench contributor, especially when he's seeing consistent minutes.

Luguentz Dort caught fire from beyond the arc, helping the Oklahoma City Thunder secure a convincing 116-98 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. Dort connected on 3-of-7 three-pointers, finishing with 9 points, 1 rebound, and 2 steals in 23 minutes of action.

Fantasy Impact: Dort's three-point shooting was a welcome sight for fantasy managers, especially those in category leagues. While his overall contributions were limited in this game, his ability to knock down shots from deep adds to his fantasy appeal. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Dort as a potential streaming option or bench contributor, particularly when he's seeing decent minutes and getting open looks.

Fantasy Impact: Dieng is set to return after missing time with a broken finger. He remains off the fantasy radar.

Fantasy Impact: Flagler has not found a consistent role in the rotation for the Thunder. He remains off the fantasy radar when he is healthy.

Kenrich Williams scored 13 points (5-6 FG, 3-3 3P) with seven rebounds, an assist, and a steal in the Thunder's 129-92 smacking of the Raptors on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact: Williams only played 14 minutes in this contest but he made the best of it, scoring 13 points, his season-high. With the Thunder being so deep at the forward position, it will be hard for Williams to see much playing time going forward, so he's unlikely to be worth rostering unless there are injuries ahead of him.

Isaiah Joe led the Thunder second unit Tuesday night, scoring 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-9 3PT) while also dishing out four assists, recording one steal, and grabbing two rebounds in a 133-106 win over the Jazz.

Fantasy Impact: Joe continues an inconsistent stretch on the offensive end of the floor, finishing with 10 points or less in three of the last five games. The 25-year-old continues to receive ample minutes as part of the bench attack for the Thunder, averaging 9.2 points in 22.2 minutes per game so far this season.

Dillon Jones scored 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3P) with two rebounds and three assists in the Thunder's 121-119 loss to the Mavericks on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Jones led the bench unit in scoring against the Mavs and in the process scored a season-high 12 points. It's not a performance that makes him worthy of a waiver add, as the Thunder have a decent amount of depth at the forward position even with their current state with injuries. Expect this to be more of a periodic performance than predictive.

Chet Holmgren was diagnosed with a right iliac hip fracture and a “return to play protocol will be provided in 8-10 weeks.” (Source: Shams Charania on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Holmgren left Sunday's game early against the Warriors after falling hard on his hip. With Isaiah Hartenstein already sidelined, the Thunder are now a little depleted down low. They'll likely run more small ball lineups moving forward.

Jaylin Williams irritated his right hamstring strain during a workout and will be re-evaluated in four to six weeks.

Fantasy Impact: Williams had been working his way back from his hamstring injury. He'll be sidelined for at least another month.

Fantasy Impact: Topic, who was drafted No. 12 overall by the Thunder back in June, will miss all of his rookie season. He suffered the injury in May and it was reported in early June that he partially tire his ACL.

The Thunder traded Lindy Waters III to the Warriors for the No. 52 pick in the NBA Draft. (Source: Shams Charania on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Waters played limited minutes the past few seasons with OKC. He will likely remain off the fantasy radar.

The Oklahoma City Thunder traded Josh Giddey to the Chicago Bulls for Alex Caruso. (Source: Adrian Wojnarowski on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Woj added that Chicago was determined to find a playmaker to replace Lonzo Ball, which is what they see in Giddey. He figures to see the ball in his hands more with Chicago while playing alongside Coby White, Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan.

Gordon Hayward scored 18 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3PT, 4-6 FT) to go along with one rebound and one steal in the 127-89 win for the Thunder over the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact: Hayward returned from a two-game absence to lead the second unit for OKC. He remains off the fantasy radar, but should bring a steady veteran presence to the team during the playoffs.
