What happened to Isaiah Joe? Live injury updates for Thunder vs. Pistons on Wednesday 2/25/26

Isaiah Joe was replaced by Luguentz Dort with 3:28 left in the second quarter of Wednesday’s game against the Detroit Pistons. Joe suffered a left glut contustion and will not return to the game. There’s been no mention of when or how the injury occurred.

Prior to exiting, Joe contributed three points, two rebounds, one assist, and a steal in 14 minutes of action.

Jared McCain started the second half for Joe and he would be the biggest beneficiary if he’s out for an extended period of time.

The Thunder are currently dealing with a bevy of injuries to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Ajay Mitchell, Alex Caruso, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein.

Since Joe did not return to play in the second half, he is eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
