Thunder's Jalen Williams is out with a right hamstring strain

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams has a right hamstring strain and will be reevaluated in a couple of weeks, a significant loss for the defending NBA champions

12 HOURS AGO • Associated Press

Out at least two weeks Williams (hamstring) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.

Impact This is a brutal blow for the Thunder and for Williams' fantasy managers. Williams is battling a right hamstring strain, and those tend to linger if not treated properly. Based on this re-evaluation timeline, the earliest possible return for Williams would be Feb. 3 against the Magic. In the meantime, players such as Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, Alex Caruso and Kenrich Williams could be a bit more involved for the Thunder.

Ruled out for Monday Williams has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Williams exited Saturday's loss to the Heat in the second quarter and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game due to what the team initially called right thigh soreness. However, the star forward underwent additional testing Sunday and will miss at least Monday's contest due to a right hamstring strain. The severity of the strain is unclear, but if Williams is forced to miss additional time, Aaron Wiggins, Alex Caruso and Kenrich Williams are candidates for increased minutes.

To undergo further testing Head coach Mark Daigneault said after Saturday's 122-120 loss to the Heat that Williams (thigh) will undergo further testing Sunday, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Impact Williams limped to the locker room in the second quarter and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game due to right thigh soreness. He posted eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists across 14 minutes before exiting. The Thunder are expected to provide an update on the star forward's status for Monday's game against Cleveland by Sunday night, and for now, he should be considered highly questionable.

Headed to locker room Williams exited Saturday's game with an apparent right leg injury, Steve McGehee of News 9 Oklahoma City reports.

Impact Williams was able to get back to the locker room under his own power, but he was sporting a limp, so he should be considered questionable to return. If he needs to miss time, that will open up minutes for Aaron Wiggins, Cason Wallace and Alex Caruso.
