Ousmane Dieng Fantasy Stats

On Wednesday, Oklahoma City Thunder Executive Vice President and General Manager Sam Presti announced they had exercised their fourth-year contract option on forward Ousmane Dieng. Dieng has played 72 games in the past two seasons and averaged 4.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 13 minutes per contest. The 21-year-old had an excellent season in the G League in 2024 as he helped the Blue win their first Championship and was named G League Finals MVP.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Ousmane Dieng had a red-hot shooting night during an impressive performance against Indiana in the Las Vegas Summer League on Wednesday. He was 3-for-4 with the three-ball and ended up missing just two of his 11 shot attempts during a 22-point effort. The 20-year-old was one rebound short of his second double-double in this year's Summer League games and wrapped things up with six assists and one steal. The Summer League has been all about Chet Holmgren for the Thunder this year, but Dieng has also performed very well, showing that could be ready to make a major step forward in 2023-24. The young Frenchmen played only 39 games during his rookie campaign and was limited to 14.9 minutes. While getting 30-plus minutes in the Summer League, Dieng has posted 14.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.2 steals with 43.5 percent shooting from deep.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Ousmane Dieng (wrist) will miss the rest of Summer League after suffering a chip fracture in his right wrist. The No. 11 overall selection had played well during his time in Las Vegas and was a highly touted international prospect heading toward the 2022 NBA Draft. Fortunately, he is expected to be good to go for the start of training camp. While Dieng probably won't be a routine fantasy producer, he may make some appearances in the starting lineup, giving him potential as a streaming option this season.
