The Oklahoma City Thunder are an NBA-best 19-1 this season. The scary part for the rest of the NBA? The Thunder haven’t had their whole roster available for a single game this season. Jalen Williams returned to the lineup this week, but now Oklahoma City will be without center Isaiah Hartenstein for a while.
Hartenstein is set to miss at least 10-14 days due to a right soleus strain. That means the Thunder will go longer without a full complement of players available to them.
With Hartenstein out of the lineup, Oklahoma City will play Chet Holmgren at center. They’ll lean on Jaylin Williams, Kenrich Williams and two-way player Branden Carlson for frontcourt depth.
