Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) ruled out Saturday for Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will not play Saturday in the team's game against the Denver Nuggets.
What It Means:
Gilgeous-Alexander was listed questionable to play due to ankle soreness, and he has been ruled out of action for Saturday night. Head coach Mark Daigneault said that there will be a discussion with the young point guard about shutting him down for the rest of the year - as the Thunder have done with multiple players already. One of those players is Josh Giddey, who has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to hip soreness.
In 56 games this season, Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 24.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 42.8 FanDuel points.
