Victor Oladipo (back) ruled out for Thunder versus Lakers

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Victor Oladipo (back) will not play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday.

What It Means:

The absence raises some concerns right after the All-Star break, but hopefully it's only a minor ailment. Alex Abrines and Doug McDermott could both benefit from Oladipo's absence, but neither is a recommended fantasy streamer.

Oklahoma City enters Friday night at 16th in numberFire's NBA Team Power Rankings.
