Josh Giddey News
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey (hip) won't play on Friday versus the Bucks. The 21-year-old nearly had a triple-double in Wednesday's blowout over the San Antonio Spurs. But he'll sit this one out because of a bruised hip, meaning his next chance to suit up will be in Sunday's regular-season finale. With that said, Giddey's absence will open up minutes for Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace. However, both men are still hard to trust from a DFS standpoint.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey (hip) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Giddey is a late addition to the injury report due to a right hip contusion. Luguentz Dort figures to move into the starting five and have increased playing time if Giddey sits out. Cason Wallace is also a candidate for increased playing time, but Dort is the better streaming option between the two of them.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey put his talents on full display on Sunday versus Charlotte, leading his squad to a 121-118 victory by recording his eighth career triple-double. Giddey scored 20 points on 7-for-15 shooting and picked up 13 rebounds and 13 assists, both of which were game-high marks. Two of Giddey's eight triple-doubles have come across the last five games. The versatile Australian has had his strongest stretch of the season lately, benefiting from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's (quadriceps) absence. The Thunder leader has missed six of the past seven games. Giddey has posted 19.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 6.7 assists in seven games without Gilgeous-Alexander this season.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Josh Giddey (ankle) is available to make his return from a one-game absence for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Giddey left last Thursday's contest with a sprained left ankle and proceeded to miss Saturday's tilt versus the Los Angeles Lakers with the injury, but he is good to go on Tuesday. The 2021 No. 6 overall pick broke out in 2022-23 but has taken a step back on a talented Thunder team in Year 3, watching each of his points (11.8), rebounds (6.0) and assists (4.3) per game plus his field-goal percentage (43.6%) drop significantly from a season ago. Giddey hasn't reached 30 minutes in a single game since Nov. 12, either. Defense-first rookie Cason Wallace will likely revert back to OKC's bench on Tuesday following his 24-minute spot start against the Lakers, and season-long fantasy managers can deploy Giddey despite facing the squad with the NBA's best defensive efficiency rating (104.4).
