UPDATE: SGA has now been ruled out.

UPDATE: SGA is active but not in the starting lineup.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander ($10,200) was set to play tonight, but felt soreness in his wrist when he came to the arena later in the day. He is undergoing testing and is officially questionable for Friday’s game against the Dallas Mavericks.

Gilgeous-Alexander has not missed a game yet this season. In the minutes that he’s been off the court, though, Jalen Williams ($8,000) has seen a 7.18-percentage point usage rate bump in 347 minutes. Isaiah Joe ($3,300) has seen a 6.35-percentage point increase in 151 minutes and could be inserted into the starting lineup.
