Jalen Williams Downgraded To Out
1 month agoOklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Williams appeared to be on track to play through a sprained left ankle after he was spotted at the morning shootaround, but he'll miss his first game since March 12 and aim to return on the second night of OKC's back-to-back for a showdown with the first-place Boston Celtics. Veteran Gordon Hayward is the most likely candidate to get the spot start at the four after doing so when Williams was last out in March 12's loss to the Indiana Pacers. Across 25 games as a starter for the Charlotte Hornets this year, Hayward averaged 14.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.9 threes and should be considered a solid fantasy streamer in a neutral matchup against the Sixers.
