Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Ruled out for Friday
Rotowire
Gilgeous-Alexander will not suit up for Friday's game in Memphis due to an ankle sprain, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Chet Holmgren (shins), Isaiah Hartenstein (soleus), Cason Wallace (toe) and Jaylin Williams (heel) will join Gilgeous-Alexander on the inactive list for Thursday's game, so Jalen Williams will be very busy on offense, and Ajay Mitchell could see a lot of minutes and shots falling his way. For now, Gilgeous-Alexander should be considered questionable for Sunday's matchup with Miami.

The severity of this issue is unclear, but the Thunder might be simply eyeing a maintenance day here for their franchise player. If he's unable to play, the Thunder could lean heavily on Ajay Mitchell, Cason Wallace and Isaiah Joe.
