Mike Muscala News
Center Mike Muscala will be returning to the Oklahoma City Thunder for the 2022-23 season, the team announced Thursday. Muscala had his team option declined back in June, but the two sides were able to come to a new agreement. The 31-year-old will be entering his fourth season with the Thunder, having previously averaged 7.3 points and three rebounds per outing across 125 contests. Known for his sharpshooting ability from the frontcourt, Muscala has knocked down an average of 1.5 threes per game, all while shooting at a 39.2 percent clip from deep during his Oklahoma City tenure. Minutes will likely not be plentiful for the veteran, but he will be a name to eye if injuries slow the Thunder big men.
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Mike Muscala (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the Bulls. The veteran is currently dealing with right ankle soreness, an ailment that forced him to miss his previous four games. He's expected to be out beyond the All-Star break, and with Derrick Favors resting against Chicago, Isaiah Roby and Aleksej Pokusevski should benefit. However, the latter should be the preferred option for fantasy purposes.
Oklahoma City Thunder center Mike Muscala (ankle) has been cleared to take the floor for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies. Muscala missed each of the team's two previous contests due to a sore right ankle, with his return giving the frontcourt some much-needed depth behind rookie Jeremiah Robinson-Earl. Muscala has reached the 20-minute mark just twice in 15 appearances this season, so he is likely on the periphery of most fantasy formats, but his return may remove some of Robinson-Earl's shine. A weapon in OKC's second unit, Muscala is shooting a career-best 43.6% from behind the arc this year.
Oklahoma City Thunder center Mike Muscala (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against Houston due to a sore right ankle. Muscala's absence now sits at two games, and with fellow big man Derrick Favors (illness) also down, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl should receive as many minutes as he can handle at the center spot. Muscala has carved out a role in the second unit as a three-point marksman (43.6% from deep), although his limited playing time is a detriment to his season-long fantasy viability. His next chance to take the floor comes Thursday vs. the Grizzlies.
