Isaiah Roby - Moves to bench MondayRoby will come off the bench Monday against the Hornets, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ImpactRoby has started the past seven games in which he's played, but he'll shift to the bench after putting up only six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds in 16 minutes Sunday against the Grizzlies. Olivier Sarr will start in his place for Oklahoma City.

Olivier Sarr - Set for first NBA startSarr will make his first career NBA start Monday night against the Hornets, Rylan Stiles of Locked On Thunder reports.
ImpactSarr is just the latest little-known player to work his way into the Thunder's starting lineup, as he'll get the nod over Isaiah Roby and veteran Derrick Favors. At this point in the calendar, Oklahoma City is firmly in young-player-evaluation mode, so it wouldn't be surprising if Sarr logs a few more starts over the final few weeks of the season. The Kentucky product finished Sunday night's loss to Memphis with two points, four rebounds and a steal in 16 minutes off the bench.

Ja Morant - Unlikely to play TuesdayMorant is doubtful for Tuesday's contest against the Pacers due to back soreness.
ImpactMorant finished Sunday's win over the Thunder with 17 points (7-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 10 assists and five rebounds across 33 minutes, but he presumably picked up a back injury as well. If he's ruled out, Tyus Jones would likely be the primary beneficiary.

Aaron Wiggins - Remains out MondayWiggins (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's contest against the Hornets.
ImpactWiggins will miss a second consecutive game due to a non-COVID illness. Theo Maledon drew the start in Wiggins' absence Sunday, while Lindy Waters, Vit Krejci and Aleksej Pokusevski all had significant roles off the bench.

Darius Bazley - Double-double in lossBazley amassed 29 points (11-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-8 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Sunday's 125-118 loss to Memphis.
ImpactBazley notched his first double-double since Feb. 25 and was one of the best players for the Thunder in this loss. He's not expected to clear the 25-point mark on a regular basis, as this was the first time he reached the 15-point mark since the league resumed following the All-Star break.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - Bounces back despite lossGilgeous-Alexander had 31 points (9-20 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 12-12 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, three blocks and two steals in 38 minutes during Sunday's 125-118 loss to the Grizzlies.
ImpactGilgeous-Alexander bounced back from his awful eight-point showing against the Timberwolves on Saturday despite OKC's loss. He's been putting up video-game numbers since returning to action a few weeks ago, though, and he has scored at least 29 points in eight of his nine appearances since returning.
