Dyami Brown Does Not Practice Wednesday

Alex Caruso Sits Out Thursday's Action

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (hip) will remain out for Thursday's tilt against the Clippers. His absence stretches to five games as Caruso battles a left hip strain.

No Practice For Saints' Kendre Miller
