Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) may sit Wednesday for Thunder
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets.
What It Means:
The Thunder are listing Gilgeous-Alexander, Lu Dort (ankle), and Chet Holmgren (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Nuggets, and they already ruled out Jalen Williams (ankle). Gilgeous-Alexander has only missed one game this season and Cason Wallace drew the start in his place. Wallace, Josh Giddey, Aaron Wiggins, and Kenrich Williams will be candidates for more work on Wednesday if the Thunder give their starters the night off.
numberFire's models project SGA for 35.3 minutes and 48.9 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He averaged 43.6 FanDuel points in three previous matchups with the Nuggets this season.
