OKLAHOMA CITY –
Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder are back in action on Sunday, this time on a West Coast road trip to Portland to face the Trail Blazers.
Coming off a Friday night NBA Cup win over the Phoenix Suns in which SGA scored 37 points and clinched a spot in the knockout round, now OKC returns to where it lost its only game on the season so far.
While All-Star Jalen Williams returned from injury on Friday, the Thunder lost center Isaiah Hartenstein for the next 10-14 days due to a soleus strain, according to the team.
So far this season, iHart has averaged 12.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.3 steals. Expect to see more of fan-favorite Jaylin (J-Will) Williams and Kenrich Williams, who was out for the start of the season and made his debut last week against the Timberwolves.
This is the third time this year the teams have matched up already, with the Thunder winning 122-95 on Nov. 24 in OKC. Portland held off a late comeback by the Thunder and prevailed in the first matchup on Nov. 5, 121-119.
Tonight, Portland will be without several key contributors. Those include Scoot Henderson, Jrue Holiday, Matisse Thybulle and Donovan Clingan. Damian Lillard remains out with a torn achilles.
Expect to see Deni Avdija (averaging 25.2 PPG, 6.4 RBG and 5.5 APG) and Jerami Grant (averaging 13 PPG the last 10 games) leading the way for Portland.
