Thunder's Jalen Williams: Sitting out Monday
Williams (hamstring) is out for Monday's game versus Detroit.
After playing 29 minutes during Sunday's victory over the Knicks, the star forward is sitting out the second end of this back-to-back set following a recent 16-game absence due to a right hamstring strain. Cason Wallace, Ajay Mitchell and Isaiah Joe are all candidates to take on amplified roles while Williams rests.

Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Sitting out Monday
Hartenstein has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pistons due to right soleus injury management.
Hartenstein has yet to play in both ends of a back-to-back set since initially suffering a right soleus strain in November, so his absence Monday isn't especially surprising after he logged 24 minutes in Sunday's 111-100 win over the Knicks. With Hartenstein and Jalen Williams (hamstring) sitting out, the Thunder are likely to lean more heavily on Chet Holmgren and Jaylin Williams in the frontcourt.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Goes for 30 points in win
Gilgeous-Alexander closed Sunday's 111-100 win over the Knicks with 30 points (8-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 13-16 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 37 minutes.
Gilgeous-Alexander didn't look at his best in the opening three quarters, but he stepped up in the fourth right when the Thunder needed him the most, and he made some clutch buckets that allowed OKC to ice the game for good. The MVP frontrunner has scored at least 25 points in four of his last five games, a stretch in which he's averaging 30.0 points per game while shooting 55.3 percent from the floor.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Sniffs double-double
Holmgren finished with 16 points (5-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 111-100 win over the Knicks.
Holmgren ended just one rebound away from recording what would've been his third double-double over the last six games. Perhaps more importantly, the big man didn't show any ill effects from the hip contusion that forced him to sit out Friday's game against the Bulls. Holmgren is averaging 16.0 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.5 blocks per game since the All-Star break and remains a productive presence for the Thunder on both ends of the court, although he's going to play as the third offensive option now that Jalen Williams is back in the lineup.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Puts up 22 points vs. NYK
Williams provided 22 points (7-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 7-7 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Sunday's 111-100 victory over the Knicks.
Williams got off to a slow start and didn't score in the first quarter, but he got hot as the game progressed and delivered his best scoring mark since returning to the lineup after a hamstring injury that sidelined him for 16 games in a row between Feb. 12 and March 21. Williams has scored at least 18 points in three of his four appearances since returning to the lineup while shooting 50 percent from the floor, but just 22.2 percent from deep, in that span.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Headed to bench
Wallace will come off the bench for Sunday's game versus the Knicks, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.
This will be Wallace's 15th game of the season operating in a reserve role. As a member of the second unit, Wallace owns averages of 5.9 points and 1.6 steals per game.

Thunder's Brooks Barnhizer: Back with parent club
The Thunder list Barnhizer (undisclosed) as available for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Barnhizer didn't play in either of the G League Oklahoma City Blue's final two games of the season due to an unspecified issue, but he's since rejoined the parent club. While he remains signed to a two-way contract, Barnhizer will only be available for the Thunder through the rest of the regular season. He's unlikely to see many opportunities over the final two weeks, unless Oklahoma City has already clinched the Western Conference's No. 1 seed and elects to rest several key rotation players in its final few games.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Not listed on injury report
Holmgren (hip) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Holmgren missed Friday's win over Chicago due to a right hip contusion but is set to return to action Sunday. The star big man has averaged 17.0 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.3 assists across 28.4 minutes per game over 10 appearances in March. Holmgren's return should push Cason Wallace back to the bench.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Double-doubles off bench
Williams closed Friday's 131-113 win over the Bulls with 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two blocks and two steals in 19 minutes.
Williams was one of the players who benefited directly from the absence of Chet Holmgren (hip), and he responded by posting a double-double -- his first since March 9 -- and leaving his mark on the defensive end. This was the third time in which he recorded at least four steals-plus-blocks, and his contributions from the second unit have been massive for the Thunder, making him a valuable streaming option in most formats due to his ability to impact both ends of the court. Williams is in the midst of a career-best season and is averaging 7.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game, but those numbers increase considerably if analyzing what he's done after the All-Star break. In 18 games in that span, he's averaging 10.3 points and 6.9 boards per game while shooting 50 percent from three-point range.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Comes close to double-double
Williams totaled 18 points (8-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Friday's 131-113 victory over Chicago.
Williams bounced back after posting a seven-point dud (2-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT) in the loss to the Celtics on Wednesday, and now he's scored exactly 18 points in two of his three outings since returning from his hamstring injury. Look for Williams to continue operating as one of the main secondary options on offense behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. From a volume perspective, it's worth noting that his 16 shot attempts were his highest since he took 17 against the Lakers on Feb. 9.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Scores 21 points in spot start
Wallace finished Friday's 131-113 win over the Bulls with 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-7 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals over 31 minutes.
Wallace got the start Friday due to the absence of Chet Holmgren (hip) and delivered a massive impact, surpassing the 20-point mark for the first tme since Feb. 25, when he had 23 points in a loss to Detroit. Wallace's recent numbers have been trending in the wrong direction, as he was coming off 10 straight games with single-digit scoring figures, and his fantasy upside was also trending downward following the return of Jalen Williams to the starting lineup. Wallace should return to a bench if Holmgren returns to the starting unit against the Knicks on Sunday.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Shooting woes in win
Gilgeous-Alexander notched 25 points (8-24 FG, 0-10 3Pt, 9-12 FT), five assists, three blocks and two rebounds across 29 minutes in Friday's 131-113 win over the Bulls.
Gilgeous-Alexander had a disastrous shooting night, particularly from three-point range, though he still finished as the game's leading scorer. While his 10 three-point tries represented a season high, Friday's contest was the sixth time this season he failed to make a three-pointer when making at least one attempt from behind the arc. However, the reigning MVP was impactful on the defensive end, finishing one block shy of tying his career high. He has tallied multiple swats in three of his last eight outings.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Starting sans Holmgren
Wallace will start Friday's game against the Bulls, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
With Chet Holmgren (hip) unavailable, Wallace will rejoin the first unit against Chicago. Over 13 starts since the All-Star break, the third-year guard has averaged 10.8 points, 4.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 28.8 minutes per contest.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Ruled out Friday
Holmgren is listed out for Friday's game against the Bulls due to a right hip contusion.
Oklahoma City didn't include Holmgren on its initial injury report, but the hip issue may have been something that cropped up during the Thunder's morning shootaround. In any case, Holmgren's absence could reopen a spot in the rotation for Aaron Wiggins, while centers Isaiah Hartenstein and Jaylin Williams could have slightly higher minutes floors.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Doesn't stand out in loss
Holmgren ended with 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and five rebounds in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 119-109 loss to the Celtics.
Holmgren didn't have his best performance but managed to score in double digits for an 11th consecutive game. The star big man is averaging 16.8 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 blocks per game in that stretch while shooting 55.4 percent from the floor and 35.9 percent from deep. Holmgren's role on offense is likely to decrease a bit in the coming games, as Jalen Williams is expected to work as the No. 2 option behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
