Luguentz Dort Fantasy Stats

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (hip) has been ruled out of Friday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets due to a hip impingement. This will be the third consecutive missed game for Dort, but the Thunder have already clinched their division and hold a 12.5-game lead for the first seed, so they'll likely be cautious leading into the playoffs. If Cason Wallace (questionable - shoulder) doesn't play, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins should remain in the starting five. In their last game, Joe posted 21 points, five assists, and three rebounds while Wiggins collected 26 points, six assists, and four rebounds.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (hip) will not suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The highly-rated defender suffered a hip injury in Saturday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. Dort's exit from the lineup opens up a starting spot for Sunday's game. It may be filled by Aaron Wiggins (illness) if he shakes off a questionable tag before the game. Isaiah Joe and Alex Caruso are also among the candidates to start.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (knee) will not suit up for Friday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's among OKC's lengthy list of injuries due to a knee issue. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (rest), Jalen Williams (wrist), Isaiah Hartenstein (nose), and Cason Wallace (knee) will also be out on Friday, with Chet Holmgren (lower leg) potentially joining them on the sidelines. In this situation, the likes of Alex Caruso, Aaron Wiggins, and Isaiah Joe should get plenty of extra work in Friday's game.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (back) remains out for Saturday's game against Memphis. He wasn't available on Friday versus Toronto because of back spasms. As a result, Aaron Wiggins entered the starting lineup and finished with 18 points, one steal, and one block in 33 minutes of action. Isaiah Joe also received added minutes, with the former 76er finishing with 16 points and going 4-for-5 from behind the arc. With Chet Holmgren (rest) getting the night off, Wiggins and Joe could both find themselves starting, increasing their fantasy potential.

According to Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca, Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (back) is a late scratch and won't suit up against the Toronto Raptors on Friday. Dort has been ruled out for the first half of a back-to-back set due to back spasms. While the 25-year-old is sidelined, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins will likely take on extra minutes. Wiggins could be a solid streaming option for Friday. He finished with 17 points, six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 25 minutes in his last outing against the Suns on Monday.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Dort is set to return to the court after missing Sunday's contest due to a right knee issue. It was only a one game absence, so fantasy managers should expect Dort to have his regular workload on Wednesday. He hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season, but fantasy managers who have him rostered can safely get him back in their lineups on Wednesday. Aaron Wiggins will head back to the bench where he won't have as much streaming appeal.

Due to an injury, Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Luguentz Dort (ankle) will not suit up against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday. Dort left Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers in the first quarter, limping off with what seemed to be a knee injury but was later confirmed to be a right ankle sprain. Dort has been averaging 9.8 points per game this season. He also contributes 4.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game. Aaron Wiggins and Adam Flagler are possible replacements at small forward.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort made a mark with 17 points, eight rebounds, and one block in Monday's Game 4 victory against Dallas. Both teams struggled to score the basketball, and Dort finished with a 4-for-14 record from the field. Three of his makes came from 10 three-point attempts. He added six points with perfect free-throw shooting. Dort has been shooting the three-ball well in the postseason, hitting 42.9 percent of his efforts. However, his shooting numbers have started to drop in the series against the Mavericks, as Dort spends a lot of energy on the defensive end, trying to slow down Luka Doncic as much as possible. The defensive specialist averages 10.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.0 steals for the playoffs.

Oklahoma City Thunder guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (illness) and Luguentz Dort (ankle) are available to play in Wednesday's tilt versus the Denver Nuggets. The two starters were getting up some shots at the end of the team's shootaround on Wednesday morning, indicating that they were on the right track to suit up. Gilgeous-Alexander is dealing with a non-COVID illness, but it shouldn't affect his workload against the defending champions. The 25-year-old MVP candidate ranks as fantasy's No. 1 overall player in nine-category leagues, racking up 31.3 points on 54.7% field-goal shooting, 6.4 assists, 5.6 rebounds, 2.2 steals, and 1.2 triples per game for the Thunder in 2023-24. Dort is nursing soreness in his left ankle but should handle his usual allotment of minutes on the wing as a three-and-D presence in OKC's starting five.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (illness) is in danger of missing a second consecutive game, as the team considers him questionable for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota. Dort missed his second game of the season Thursday versus Utah due to an illness, and he's still trying to get over the bug. Cason Wallace jumped into the starting five on Thursday and will likely remain in the role if Dort can't return versus the Timberwolves. The Kentucky product had one of the best games of his young career with a 16-point effort across 32 minutes on Thursday. However, he's set to face the No. 1 ranked defense on Saturday, and it will likely be difficult to repeat the performance.
