Isaiah Joe News, Rumors, Updates - Oklahoma City Thunder

Returning to second unit Joe is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Clemente Almanza reports.

Impact Joe delivered 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 21 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 victory over Toronto in a starting role, but he'll return to the bench with Cason Wallace moving back to the first unit. Joe is averaging 8.9 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game when coming off the bench this season.

Productive in starting role Joe supplied 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 21 minutes during Thursday's 129-92 victory over Toronto.

Impact Joe and Cason Wallace have been alternating the starting role at the shooting guard position quite often, and Joe could be in line to secure the role for, at least, a few games based on this performance. The former Arkansas standout has scored at least 15 points in three of his last five appearances, including his last two starts, and he seems to be trending in the right direction following a slow start to the campaign.

Starting Thursday Joe will enter the starting lineup in Thursday's game versus the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact The 25-year-old will supplant Cason Wallace in the starting five on Thursday. In eight starts this season, Joe has averaged 9.5 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 steals across 25.5 minutes per contest.

DECEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Makes most of minutes in blowout Joe racked up 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-9 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 133-106 win over Utah.

Impact Joe and Cason Wallace have been alternating starts in the backcourt alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but Joe outplayed his teammate despite coming off the bench in this one. The former Arkansas guard has scored in double digits in just two of his last five outings, but his performance in this contest might lead him to a few more starts in the near future. Despite the fact he's capable of putting up solid numbers on any given game, the inconsistency of his role limits his fantasy upside considerably.

DECEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Plays just 13 minutes Joe accumulated zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two assists in 13 minutes during Sunday's 119-116 loss to the Rockets.

Impact For just the second time this campaign, Joe was held scoreless Sunday. He's been slumping pretty hard, failing to reach double-digit points in four of his last five outings. His workloads had been pretty healthy prior to Sunday, so that's something to monitor going forward.

DECEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to bench Friday Joe is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Lakers, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.

Impact The Thunder have been alternating who starts at shooting guard all season long, and this game against the Lakers won't be the exception. Joe is averaging 9.5 points and 2.5 rebounds per game while shooting 45.8 percent from deep when deployed off the bench.

NOVEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Solid shooting in starting role Joe logged 17 points (6-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 105-101 victory over Golden State.

Impact Joe's calf seems to have made a complete recovery, snd he mad his way back into the first unit to post his best scoring result of the season. He shot 50 percent from the floor and drilled four three-pointers to pad his totals. He platoons often with Cason Wallace, but Joe's solid game may put him on the positive end of the timeshare.

NOVEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Back in starting lineup Joe is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Joe has been alternating in the starting lineup alongside Cason Wallace, and the former Arkansas standout is set to make his eighth start of the campaign -- and first since Nov. 17. Joe is averaging 8.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals per game in his previous seven starts.

NOVEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Monday Joe (calf) is listed as available for Monday's matchup against the Kings.

Impact Joe will return to game action after a two-game absence due to a left calf contusion. The 25-year-old swingman started in four consecutive outings before his absence streak, during which he averaged 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks across 25.3 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Monday Joe (calf) is questionable for Monday's game against the Kings.

Impact Joe has missed the last two games due to a left calf contusion that now has his status for Monday's contest in question. If he is unable to go, Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins should be in line for extended minutes.

NOVEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Limited in practice Joe (calf) was a limited participant in Saturday's practice, Clemente Almanza of USA Today

Impact Joe has missed two straight games due to a bruised left calf but was able to participate in portions of Saturday's practice. Dillon Jones has seen some additional minutes during Joe's absence and would likely continue to benefit if Joe were to sit out Monday's game at Sacramento.

NOVEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Out again Wednesday Joe (calf) will not play Wednesday against Portland.

Impact Joe will miss his second game in a row after suffering his calf injury Sunday against Dallas. The Thunder could get Isaiah Hartenstein (hand) back Wednesday, making them less reliant on their small-ball lineups.

NOVEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Tuesday Joe has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Spurs due to a left calf contusion.

Impact Joe suffered a calf contusion in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss to the Mavericks and will be sidelined for the first half of Oklahoma City's upcoming back-to-back set. He can be considered doubtful for Wednesday's home game versus Portland, barring an update. Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace are candidates for more minutes in Joe's absence, but the Thunder will also get Alex Caruso (hip) back for Tuesday's contest.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Leaves early Sunday Joe left Sunday's game during the fourth quarter and did not return, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Impact Joe exited Sunday's game in the fourth quarter with what head coach Mark Daigneault referred to as a "contusion" and did not return. Daigneault also said he just decided not to put Joe back in the game, so it doesn't seem to be of much concern going forward. Joe concluded Sunday's contest with six points (2-6 3Pt), four assists, two rebounds, one steal and a block in 25 minutes of action.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Solid performance in win Joe finished Friday's 99-83 win over Phoenix with 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 22 minutes.

Impact Joe started his third consecutive game and bounced back from a scoreless night against the Pelicans. The team has tinkered with Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins at the off-guard slot with no clear frontrunner, so fantasy viability for the trio is limited in the short term.

NOVEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Monday Joe is in the Thunder's starting lineup for Monday's game against the Clippers, Nick Gallo of the Thunder's official site reports.

Impact The Thunder have experimented its rotation by having Joe, Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace alternate in the starting lineup. However, with Chet Holmgren sidelined for 8-to-10 weeks due to a right hip fracture, Oklahoma City will roll with Wiggins and Joe in the starting five Monday while Wallace comes off the bench. Joe has scored in double digits in each of his last six games, and during that span he is averaging 12.0 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists over 23.8 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to starting lineup Joe is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Impact Joe has been in and out of the starting lineup so far this season, and he'll have another shot with the first unit Wednesday, sending Cason Wallace to the bench. Joe is averaging 9.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game in his previous two starts this season.

Retreats to bench Saturday Joe will come off the bench against the Clippers on Saturday, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Impact Joe got the start against the Trail Blazers on Friday and finished with 12 points, five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes. Aaron Wiggins will get the start Saturday while Joe and Cason Wallace come off the bench.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Modest numbers in Friday's start Joe ended with 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes during Friday's 137-114 victory over Portland.

Impact Making his second start in five games, Joe scored in double digits for the first time. Shooting guard has been a revolving door for the Thunder so far, but the matchup-based approach seems to be working given the team's 5-0 start. Regardless of whether he's part of the starting five or the second unit, Joe's minutes and production will mainly be limited to his contributions from beyond the arc -- he's gone 10-for-26 (38.5 percent) on three-point attempts.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Moves into starting lineup Joe will start Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Impact The Thunder continue to shift around their starting shooting guard, and this time Joe will make his first start since Opening Night, sending Cason Wallace to the bench. In four appearances this season, Joe has averaged 6.3 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 16.8 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to bench Saturday Joe is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Impact The Thunder have decided to shake things up in their lineup for their second game of the season and will insert Cason Wallace in the backcourt instead of Joe. Joe played 20 minutes as a starter in the season opener against Denver on Thursday, tallying seven points, two rebounds and an assist.
