Steven Adams (concussion) is out for Thunder on Saturday
Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (concussion) is out for Saturday against the New York Knicks.
What It Means:
Adams suffered a concussion after getting elbowed by Joel Embiid late in Friday night's game. He will remain in concussion protocol until he is symptom-free, which means Dakari Johnson will likely start for the Thunder on Saturday. Patrick Patterson could also see some more run against the Knicks.
Our models project Adams for averages of 11.5 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 1.3 blocks over 29.0 minutes per game remaining this season.
