Already playing without Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein, the Thunder lost Jaylin Williams to a strained oblique during the first half of Sunday’s game. The result was even more playing time for Carlson, who had the best day of his NBA career. Not only did the rookie record season highs in points and rebounds, but this was also his first double-double. Unlike Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe, Carlson will not be in the Thunder playoff rotation, even if Williams misses time. But he undoubtedly made a positive impression with his play in New Orleans.

Joe did not have the best afternoon shooting-wise, making 33.3 percent of his attempts. The good news for managers in active category leagues is that he recorded solid numbers in the rebound and steals categories. Like Aaron Wiggins, Joe will be in the playoff rotation, but the role will be far different than in Oklahoma City’s final two regular-season games.

Even if one accepts that New Orleans is one of the NBA’s worst teams, Sunday’s victory was another example of Oklahoma City’s depth. Down most of their critical rotation pieces, the Thunder still rolled, with Wiggins among the standouts. In wins over the Jazz and Pelicans to end the season, he scored 63 points on 22-of-42 shooting from the field. Wiggins will be in the playoff rotation, but the role won’t be as robust as it was with players like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams unavailable.

Tshiebwe hasn’t been able to carve out a role in the NBA since going undrafted in 2023, but whenever he gets the opportunity to play, he dominates the glass. He has played in 10 games since the All-Star break and has finished with at least 10 rebounds in eight of them. Sunday’s game was his third-straight double-double, which is a great way for him to end the season. Unfortunately, there isn’t currently a clear path for him to play rotation minutes next season, so we may have to wait until next March and April for him to shine.

What a way to close out the season for Sensabaugh. The second-year guard had at least 20 points and five three-pointers in Utah’s final three games of the season. Sensabaugh also had some big performances at the end of last season, but his role entering year two was a minimal one. It’s unclear what things will look like entering his third season in the NBA, which makes him a difficult player to consider drafting next year, especially if Utah opts to tank again. Still, the 21-year-old has proven his potential once again to wrap up the season.

Williams injured his ankle just two minutes into the game, and there is no reason for him to play through it in a meaningless game. Branden Carlson will fill out the center minutes in this game.

Martin will remain out on Sunday, missing a fifth straight game due to illness. Micah Potter played 32 minutes off the bench in Friday’s loss to the Thunder and may take on a similar workload on Sunday. However, fantasy managers in active leagues should target Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh first.

Collier’s rookie season ends disappointingly, as a hamstring injury cost him Utah’s final three games. However, there were some positives to take from his first NBA season. A fixture in the Jazz starting lineup since early January, Collier provided solid production in the assist category while also being a solid defender. However, the limited scoring negatively impacted his fantasy value, and that’s an area to watch during Summer League play in Las Vegas. Keyonte George should remain in the starting lineup on Sunday.

Williams will miss Oklahoma City’s final two games of the regular season as he gets healthy for the postseason. Dillon Jones should remain in the starting lineup, and he played 33 minutes in Friday’s win over the Jazz. Alex Ducas will likely be his backup, but Jones is the only one worthy of consideration in active fantasy leagues.

Hartenstein and Holmgren’s continued absences mean Kenrich Williams and Jaylin Williams should remain in the starting lineup for Sunday’s regular-season finale. The latter only needed 25 minutes to record a triple-double in Friday’s win over the Jazz; keep an eye on JayWill for Sunday as well, since that’s another good matchup for him. Kenrich will have value in active deep leagues.

Gilgeous-Alexander and Dort will remain out for Sunday’s regular-season finale, which will not impact the Thunder’s playoff seeding. Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe started Friday’s win over the Jazz and should do the same on Sunday. Don’t be surprised if they put up big numbers after combining for 67 points against Utah.

Sunday’s game will be the second straight missed by Caruso and the third for Wallace. Oklahoma City already secured home-court advantage throughout the NBA Playoffs, so most of their rotation players will be inactive on Sunday. The absence of Caruso and Wallace means players like Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins and Adam Flagler will play plenty on Sunday. Joe and Wiggins are the players to target in active leagues.

The Baylor product went undrafted in 2023 but has spent the last two seasons with Oklahoma City, mostly in the G League. He has played some garbage-time minutes this year, which have come often due to how frequently the Thunder blow teams out. Flagler had the best game of his young career on Friday, and he set career-highs for points, rebounds, assists and steals. He will likely play a significant role once again in the regular season finale in New Orleans on Sunday.

Mitchell has been sidelined since January 3 after undergoing surgery to address a right great toe sprain. The 2024 second-round pick had some solid performances prior to his injury and was able to carve out a reserve role for a talented Thunder team. He wasn’t great in his 18 minutes on Friday, but it was good to see him back on the floor. He should play a significant role in the regular season finale in New Orleans on Sunday, but he won’t play much during the postseason.

Sensabaugh scored 16 of his 25 points in the second half, though it wasn’t enough for Utah to come anywhere close to keeping up with Oklahoma City in this game. This was his second-straight game with at least 20 points and five triples, and it was his highest-scoring game since January 5. Sensabaugh also set a new career-high for assists. The 2023 first-round pick will look to end his second season on a high note in Minnesota on Sunday.

Mykhailiuk, who hadn’t scored in double figures since March 5, shattered his previous season-high of 19 points in the blowout loss. In fact, he set a new career-high for scoring, surpassing his previous mark of 26 points, which he had reached twice. In fact, the Jazz are now the fourth team that Mykhailiuk has scored 25 points in a game for. He should continue to play a significant role in the season finale against the Timberwolves on Sunday, but he may not replicate his production from this game.

Joe fell one point shy of tying his career-high for points in a game, but he was still able to set a new career-high for three-pointers, which also tied the franchise record that was set by Paul George in 2019. Joe also set a new career-high for assists. Oklahoma City will wrap up the regular season in New Orleans on Sunday. Unless head coach Mark Daigneault opts to rest him for the postseason, Joe should once again play a significant role and likely provide more triples.

With the typical starters getting the night off, Wiggins was the primary scorer for Oklahoma City in this game, which allowed him to have his highest-scoring performance since his 41-point night in February. He had 22 points in the first half and kept it going after the break. Wiggins will return to being a valuable reserve for the Thunder in the postseason, but unless they rest him for the finale in New Orleans on Sunday, he should be in for another big scoring night to wrap up the regular season.

Williams has been a stud whenever the Thunder give Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein rest, and that continued in this game. He has started three times since the All-Star break and has recorded a triple-double in each of them. Williams only needed 25 minutes to reach those marks on Friday, and he was even able to add a self-lob off the glass to make things fancy. Williams should remain in the starting unit for the season finale in New Orleans on Sunday and should be in for another big night.

Two days after recording a monster 30/18 double-double, Filipowski provided an encore, though it was nowhere near as good as the original. The rookie has grabbed at least nine rebounds in seven consecutive games and has four double-doubles during that stretch. He slipped to the second round of the draft last summer, but the early returns suggest he was one of the biggest steals of the draft. Filipowski should once again play a large role in Minnesota on Sunday to wrap up his rookie season.

Friday’s game will be the second straight Collier has missed with a hamstring injury. The rookie will again be replaced in the starting lineup by Keyonte George, who has a higher fantasy ceiling when allowed to start. George offers a lower ceiling in the assist category than Collier, but he is the superior scorer.

After scoring 29 points on 11-of-25 shooting across his two prior appearances, George exploded in Atlanta. The 35 points were a season-high for the Jazz guard, who has three games of 30 or more to his credit. However, while George has averaged just under 18 points per game over the past two weeks, he’s only shooting 39 percent from the field. Add in the limited defensive production, and George has only been a late-round player in 12-team leagues over the past two weeks.

Collier has reached double digits in assists in two of his last three appearances, with Sunday’s total being one shy of his season-high. While his shooting has been inconsistent, the rookie’s had an excellent season in the assist category. His total of 446 assists is a Jazz rookie record, with John Stockton being the previous record holder with 415. The season’s final three games will be crucial for Collier, who continues to do what he can to show he’s capable of running the team in the future.

Sexton has scored 27 points in two straight games, and the Jazz guard has recorded 20 or more in four of his last five. Over the past two weeks, he is ranked just outside the top 50 in nine-cat formats and has been a top-75 player in eight-cat. For Sexton managers whose leagues run through Week 23, he’ll have solid fantasy value as the Jazz continue to play him starters’ minutes. However, Utah only plays three games next week, starting with the Trail Blazers on Wednesday.

Williams had a rough afternoon, shooting 3-of-10 from inside the arc. The positive for those who have J-Dub rostered is that he did not add to that issue by turning the ball over, as he did not commit any turnovers. Given where the Thunder are in the standings, ensuring their key players are healthy for the postseason is more important than putting up gaudy stat lines. Oklahoma City’s four-game Week 23 includes a back-to-back, so Williams managers in active leagues may only have him for three games.

The Lakers had an excellent defensive game plan for Sunday’s game, using a variety of looks to limit the Thunder to 99 points. They also successfully defended Gilgeous-Alexander without fouling, as he failed to attempt a free throw in a game for the first time this season. SGA still shot over 50 percent from the field and recorded solid point and assist numbers, so all wasn’t lost for those with the MVP favorite on their rosters. Oklahoma City plays four games during the final week of the regular season, starting with the Lakers on Tuesday.

Martin is set to miss a second straight game due to illness. Micah Potter could be in for another significant bench role against Atlanta to wrap up the weekend. He logged minutes off the pine against Indiana in Utah’s last game.

While Williams would have a decent chance of logging rotation minutes if he were healthy, that is not the case for Ducas. Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein will continue to dominate the playing time at the center position on Sunday.

Martin did not play in Friday’s game against the Pacers, which led to Micah Potter playing 24 minutes off the bench. He may be in for a similar workload if KJ remains unavailable, but that is not enough to make Potter a player worth streaming in most leagues.

Kessler will remain out for another game. He’s in the league’s concussion protocol and has a broken nose. Kyle Filipowski should remain the starting center, which raises his fantasy ceiling. Given the nature of Kessler’s injury, it would be surprising if he played again this season, especially with the Jazz prioritizing their draft lottery odds.

Gilgeous-Alexander’s 22 points were his lowest total since he scored 21 points against the Jazz on February 21. The 26-year-old’s typical level of play has reached heights that fantasy managers are miffed when he scores in the low-20s. Gilgeous-Alexander is still arguably the top player in fantasy. He’ll look to bounce back against the Lakers Sunday afternoon.

Williams continues to be an efficient scorer on a night-in and night-out basis. The 23-year-old small forward has made at least 50 percent of his field goal attempts in 10 of his last 11 games. Williams is usually behind star teammates Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren, but he led the Thunder in points Friday.

Juzang moved into the starting lineup with Walker Kessler (concussion) out Friday. The 24-year-old shooting guard played 36 minutes in the loss to the Pacers. He took plenty of shots, but had just 17 points. Juzang connected on 5-of-12 three-pointers. He was just okay as a streamer in deeper formats, which was to be expected.

Sexton’s minutes have been up and down lately as the Jazz try to take a look at some younger players. He played 33 minutes Friday against the Pacers and was able to score 27 points. The outing was a bit of an anomaly for Sexton as he shot just 8-of-15 from the field, but got to the foul line 10 times and knocked down nine free throws to boost his total. The 26-year-old shooting guard is certainly capable of scoring upwards of 20 points a game consistently, but the Jazz don’t seem all that interested in giving him the opportunity every night.
