NBC SportsJaylin Williams (glute) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pacers.

Williams was also questionable ahead of Wednesday's win over the Bucks, but he did not play. If JayWill has to miss another game, Kenrich Williams and Branden Carlson will benefit the most in terms of playing time. "Kenny Hustle" would be worthy of streaming consideration in deep leagues, but he should not be considered a must-add player.

NBC SportsAjay Mitchell, Luguentz Dort, Jalen Williams, Aaron Wiggins and Branden Carlson will start Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

The Thunder are without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein for Friday's game, to name a few of the absentees. Mitchell and Carlson move into the starting lineup, and while the former should already be rostered in some 12-team leagues, the latter is worth streaming in deeper formats.
