Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Fantasy Stats

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. The superstar guard is back in the mix after sitting out of Tuesday's contest due to an abdominal strain. It sounds like Tuesday's absence was more of a maintenance day to keep Gilgeous-Alexander healthy and rested. Isaiah Joe will head back to the bench with Gilgeous-Alexander returning on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should expect him to have a full workload on Wednesday. As for Joe, he won't be as appealing for streaming with him playing off the bench.

According to Clemente Almanza of USA Today, Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) won't suit up for Tuesday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls due to abdominal strain management. The Thunder are exercising caution and will hold him out for the first leg of their back-to-back set. After missing nine consecutive games, Gilgeous-Alexander has returned in strong form, scoring at least 30 points in each of his two appearances since coming back. He is expected to return on Wednesday against the Knicks. With SGA sidelined on Tuesday, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe, and Jared McCain should see increased opportunities in the backcourt.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. He has been sidelined since suffering an abdominal injury, keeping him off the floor for OKC's previous nine contests. While SGA may be limited for at least a few contests, he should be plugged right back into all fantasy lineups. Chet Holmgren (back) and Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) are also off the injury report, meaning lower ceilings for Cason Wallace, Jaylin Williams, and Aaron Wiggins.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) will be re-evaluated in approximately one week and is set to miss additional time after sitting out since Feb. 3. With the All-Star sidelined alongside Ajay Mitchell (abdomen), Oklahoma City's backcourt minutes are wide open. Over his last five games, Isaiah Joe has averaged 16.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals, and 3.4 threes in 28.1 minutes, while Cason Wallace has produced 11.0 points, 4.2 assists, and 1.8 steals in 30.8 minutes. Jared McCain added 13 points in 24 minutes last game. Joe and Wallace are strong streamers, with Chet Holmgren likely absorbing added usage.

Oklahoma City guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) will miss at least five games with an abdominal strain, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The report states that the reigning MVP will be reevaluated after the All-Star break, so his absence could extend further into February. SGA suffered the injury Tuesday night in the blowout win over the Orlando Magic. Following the news that SGA would miss the Wednesday night tilt against the San Antonio Spurs, most of the Oklahoma City rotation was ruled out with various injuries. Cason Wallace, one of the few healthy rotation players, will handle the ball-handling responsibilities for the Thunder on Wednesday.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (finger) has been upgraded to available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He was listed as questionable coming into this game due to a sprained right index finger. It doesn't appear to be serious enough to keep Gilgeous-Alexander off the court. There is a concern that the finger issue could affect his shooting ability. Despite that, Gilgeous-Alexander needs to be started in all fantasy formats, even with a banged-up finger. Fantasy managers should get him active in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (finger) is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Orlando Magic due to a sprained right index finger. Gilgeous-Alexander hasn't missed a game since Jan.9 and he's played in 48 of 50 Thunder contests so far this campaign. If the superstar guard is unable to suit up, Isaiah Joe will be provided with a heavier workload, especially with Ajay Mitchell (abdomen) already set to miss his sixth straight game due to an abdominal strain.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Heat. SGA didn't suit up on Friday in the win over the Memphis Grizzlies after dropping 46 points on the Utah Jazz. However, since that one went into overtime, Gilgeous-Alexander got a much-needed night off. With Chet Holmgren (shin) and Cason Wallace (toe) also available, it should be business as usual for the champs, although their availability could mean fewer scoring opportunities for Ajay Mitchell, who is coming off a 23-point effort.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) will not play Friday in Memphis due to an ankle sprain. His next chance to return comes Sunday against Miami. Oklahoma City will also be without Chet Holmgren (shin), Isaiah Hartenstein (calf), Cason Wallace (toe), and Jaylin Williams (heel), concentrating offensive responsibility. Jalen Williams should see elevated usage after averaging 17.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.4 steals in 30.0 minutes this season. Ajay Mitchell emerges as a strong streamer, posting 13.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.1 three-pointers, and 1.5 steals on efficient shooting.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (knee) will play on Wednesday against Utah. SGA struggled shooting the ball in Monday's loss to the Hornets. However, he still had 21 points, six assists, and one block. OKC has lost the last two contests, so Gilgeous-Alexander should have plenty of motivation to produce versus one of the worst defensive clubs in the National Basketball Association.
