Injury Report: Thunder and Warriors Face Off With Top Players Healthy

Oklahoma City has lost its last two games and three of its last four in the most crucial stretch of the season that doesn’t get much easier.

The Thunder are clinging to a play-in spot as of Tuesday afternoon, but the Jazz and Mavericks are lurking. OKC turns its attention to the Warriors on Tuesday in a challenging game that the Thunder need to find a way to win. During the struggles Oklahoma City has received some help from other teams beating the teams on the heels of the young roster, but OKC must also help themselves.

The Warriors won’t be an easy victory as they enter Tuesday healthy and nearly unbeatable at home this season with a 32-8 home record. The Thunder are 1-2 against the Warriors this season and come in as big underdogs.

Oklahoma City will rely heavily on their star power led by Shai Gilgoeus-Alexander in the contest and hope the OKC defense can limit Steph Curry and Klay Thompson’s damage.

Here are the most recent injury reports for both squads entering tonight:

Oklahoma City Thunder:

Chet Holmgren: Out: Right foot surgery

Kenrich Williams: Out: Left Wrist Scapholunate Rupture

Golden State Warriors:

Andre Iguodala: Out: Left Wrist Surgery

Andrew Wiggins: Out: Personal Reasons

Ryan Rollins: Out: Right Foot Surgery

Tip-off for the Warriors and Thunder is slated for 8 p.m. at Golden State, the Warriors are currently eight-point favorites.
