Ousmane Dieng - Misses game with illness Dieng was ruled out ahead of Thursday's 121-115 loss to the Thunder due to an illness.
Impact Before sitting out Thursday, Dieng had appeared in each of Oklahoma City's previous four games, averaging 5.8 points and 1.8 rebounds in 11.3 minutes per contest. Even if Dieng shakes off the illness in time for the Thunder's next contest Sunday in Portland, he might fall out of the rotation if Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) is cleared to return from a five-game absence.

Kenrich Williams - Pedestrian effort in loss Williams produced six points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one steal in 20 minutes during Thursday's 121-115 loss to Dallas.
Impact While Williams put forth a pedestrian effort Thursday, his recent uptick in playing time is worth noting. Over his last seven games, the veteran forward has averaged 4.3 rebounds, 3.7 points and 0.7 assists in 17.0 minutes. Even though Williams should remain a candidate for additional reserve minutes in Oklahoma City's frontcourt while starting center Isaiah Hartenstein sits on the shelf with a calf injury, the former is shooting just 27.8 percent from the floor during this span and could stay hard-pressed to muster much fantasy relevance.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - Adds another 30-point display Gilgeous-Alexander closed with 31 points (12-25 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound and seven assists across 40 minutes during Thursday's 121-115 loss to Dallas.
Impact Fresh off scoring a career-high 54 points Wednesday, Gilgeous-Alexander added another impressive display to his MVP-caliber campaign during the first half of 2024-25. Thursday's 31 points marked the 26th time this season that he's reached the 30-point plateau for the Thunder. The superstar guard has averaged a whopping 34.9 points, 6.1 assists, 4.9 rebounds, 2.3 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers across his last nine appearances.

Jalen Williams - Massive two-way impact Thursday Williams ended with 33 points (11-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 7-10 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and four steals over 40 minutes during Thursday's 121-115 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact It was Williams' first 30-point effort since a Dec. 20 win over Miami, and he also turned in a full stat line for the Thunder despite a losing effort Thursday. The 23-year-old rising star remains one of the most balanced two-way players in the Western Conference as he pushes for his first career All-Star nod in 2024-25. Through his last nine games, Williams has delivered well-rounded averages of 22.6 points, 5.3 assists, 4.6 rebounds, 2.0 steals, 0.9 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers.
