Exits game due to groin injury Dort left in the third quarter of Saturday's game against the Pistons due to a groin injury, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.

Impact Dort appeared to have his left foot caught on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's foot which caused Dort to slip awkwardly to the ground. Dort was able to walk off under his own power but went to the locker room to be evaluated. Alex Caruso and Isaiah Joe are in line to see more minutes off the bench if Dort is unable to return.

Season-best performance Monday Dort posted 26 points (9-16 FG, 8-14 3Pt), seven rebounds, one block and four steals over 34 minutes during Monday's 140-127 loss to Denver.

Impact The 26 points and eight made threes were both season high for Dort, who led the Thunder in scoring on the night. The 25-year-old wing has been struggling to provide consistent offense since the All-Star break, scoring in double digits only three times in his last 10 appearances while averaging 9.3 points, 3.9 boards, 2.3 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.4 steals.

Drains six triples vs. Atlanta Dort supplied 20 points (7-13 FG, 6-11 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 32 minutes during Friday's 135-119 win over the Hawks.

Impact Dort connected on a game-high six three-pointers Friday, four of which came in the second half to help the Thunder maintain their double-digit lead. He entered Friday's game having connected on just 23.1 percent of his three-point attempts over his last eight outings, but his six triples tied a season high that he has reached five times. Dort will look to carry that hot shooting into Sunday's game against De'Aaron Fox and the Spurs.

Held in check Dort amassed four points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Sunday's 130-123 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact With the Thunder healthy right now, there isn't much usage to go around for Dort, allowing him to focus most of his attention on the defensive end. He's been an 11th-round value in nine-category fantasy leagues over his last 10 games, averaging 9.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.

Goes for 17 points in win Dort racked up 17 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-101 win over the Heat.

Impact Dort has scored in double digits in three of his last five appearances, and he was highly efficient in this contest after missing just three of his 10 shots from the floor. Dort brings value on both ends of the floor for the Thunder, but an uptick in his scoring figures would go a long way toward boosting his fantasy value. He's averaging 12.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.8 blocks per game since the beginning of February.

FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Off injury report for Monday Dort (back) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Dort is expected to return to game action following a two-game absence streak due to back spasms. The 25-year-old has averaged 9.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals across 27.4 minutes per contest over his last five outings.

Won't play Saturday Dort (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Iffy to play Saturday Dort (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Dort was a late scratch for Friday's 121-109 win over the Raptors due to back spasms, but he has a chance to return for the second leg of the Thunder's back-to-back Saturday. Dort has averaged 10.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals over 28.1 minutes per game since the beginning of January.

Late scratch Friday Dort has been ruled out for Friday's game against Toronto due to back spasms, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Dort has been ruled out for the first leg of the club's back-to-back set, though he could return for Saturday's game against Memphis. With the swingman sidelined, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins could see a bump in minutes.

Ties season high with four steals Dort registered seven points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 140-109 victory over the Suns.

Impact With teammate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropping 50 points Wednesday, Dort didn't need to do much on the offensive end of the floor for the Thunder. However, he tallied a game-high four steals to tie his season-high output. The 25-year-old's role on offense is limited as a three-and-D player, which makes him a hit-or-miss fantasy option most nights where Oklahoma City is healthy. Dort has scored double-digit points in just two of his last seven games.
