Thunder's Ousmane Dieng: Ruled out for Monday
Ousmane Dieng won't suit up for Monday's matchup with Memphis due to a right calf strain.Isaiah Hartenstein (leg) and Jaylin Williams (heel) will join Dieng on the inactive list, and both Chet Holmgren (back) and Aaron Wiggins (adductor) are questionable, so Cason Wallace could see big minutes in some small-ball lineups if all these guys are out. Dieng's next chance to play will come Tuesday in San Antonio.

With the 22-year-old forward joining Chet Holmgren (back), Luguentz Dort (illness) and Jalen Williams (wrist) on the sidelines, Aaron Wiggins and Brooks Barnhizer are candidates for a slight bump in minutes the rest of the way.

Thunder's Ousmane Dieng: Plays 15 minutes in 2OT win

The defending champs are banged up to start the season, with key rotation players like Jalen Williams (wrist), Alex Caruso (concussion), Cason Wallace (knee) and Isaiah Joe (knee) all sidelined Thursday. When the Oklahoma City Thunder start getting healthy, Dieng will have a hard time seeing the court.
