Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Pulls down 12 rebounds in win
Rotowire
Hartenstein totaled zero points (0-3 FG), 12 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 21 minutes during Sunday's 116-103 victory over Minnesota.
While Hartenstein was scoreless in this game, he still played a big role in the win and dominated his matchup with Rudy Gobert. Per Nick Gallo of the Thunder's official site, head coach Mark Daigneault heaped praise on Hartenstein during his postgame media availability, saying: "His value is usually invisible value. He's not like a box score junkie, but he gets a lot done out there... We used him as a hub when that unit was out there to start the 2nd and 4th, and he really got that going with those guys running around him."

Holmgren finished with a team-best plus-23 differential in the win, and he racked up four stocks after failing to record any defensive statistics his last time out.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Double-doubles with three stocks
Rotowire
Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 20 points (7-22 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 33 minutes during Sunday's 116-103 win over the Timberwolves.
Gilgeous-Alexander got off to a sluggish start offensively, as he had just 10 points on 3-for-16 shooting through the first three quarters of play. However, he got hot during the fourth and dropped in 10 points on 4-for-6 shooting during the final frame to keep his streak of 20-point games going. It wasn't Gilgeous-Alexander's best offensive outing, but he shined as a defender and playmaker while helping the Thunder earn their eighth straight victory.
Wallace will come off the bench for Sunday's game versus the Timberwolves, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
The Thunder will go with a starting five featuring Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Ajay Mitchell, Luguentz Dort, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein on Sunday. Through 10 games off the bench this season, Wallace has posted averages of 5.8 points, 1.1 assists and 1.7 steals per game.

Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Green light to play Sunday
Rotowire
Hartenstein (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.
Hartenstein has been cleared to return from a three-game absence due to a left calf contusion, which will result in reduced roles for the likes of Jaylin Williams and Aaron Wiggins. Hartenstein has appeared in 11 of the Thunder's 18 games since Feb. 1, and over that span he has averaged 8.0 points, 7.1 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 0.9 blocks over 23.0 minutes per game.
Carlson (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Carlson will miss an eighth consecutive game due to a back strain. He doesn't have a concrete date to return to action, but the big man has a minor role in the rotation, so his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions. His next chance to play will come Tuesday against the Magic.

Rotowire
Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Williams will miss a 13th consecutive contest due to a right hamstring strain and remains without a timetable for a return.

Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Questionable to face Minnesota
Rotowire
Hartenstein (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota.
Hartenstein missed Oklahoma City's last three games due to a left calf contusion, though the questionable tag suggests he can be considered day-to-day going forward. If the big man is cleared to play, there would be fewer minutes available for Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams.

Thunder's Luguentz Dort: Pedestrian line in narrow win
Rotowire
Dort racked up six points (2-8 FG, 2-8 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 29 minutes during Thursday's 104-102 victory over Boston.
Dort struggled with his shot, missing six of his eight attempts from deep, but he managed to contribute as a rebounder to help the Thunder secure a narrow win over the Celtics. While his offensive consistency remains a major question mark, Dort has been a permanent fixture in the starting five, averaging 30.0 minutes per game over his last 10 appearances. During this recent stretch, his scoring has been modest, averaging 8.3 points per game on just 31.5 percent shooting. Despite the lack of high-volume scoring, Dort's primary value to the Thunder lies in his perimeter defense, which keeps his minutes floor secure.

Gilgeous-Alexander has been in top form since returning from an abdominal issue in late February, scoring 30 or more in four of his last six contests and averaging 31.5 points, 8.5 assists, 5.0 boards, 1.8 steals, 1.3 threes and 1.2 blocks while shooting 55.5 percent from the floor.
