Thunder's Ousmane Dieng: Sniffs triple-double in win
Dieng delivered 20 points (7-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, nine assists and two blocks across 37 minutes in Thursday's 117-89 preseason win over the New Zealand Breakers.
Dieng has made over 30 appearances for the Thunder in each of his first two seasons in the NBA, and he continues to grow as a player after being one of the youngest players selected in the 2022 NBA Draft. Dieng isn't expected to play a prominent role for the Thunder once the regular season begins in late October, but he might get an extra look in the Thunder's final two preseason contests against the Nuggets and Hawks before the start of the regular season on Oct. 24.

Thunder's Dillon Jones: Shines in win Thursday
Jones racked up 23 points (8-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists, four steals and two blocks across 35 minutes in Thursday's 117-89 preseason win over the New Zealand Breakers.
Several young players got the chance to play extended minutes in this contest for the Thunder, but it'd be hard to find anyone who took more advantage of the opportunity than Jones, who filled the stat sheet admirably and made his presence felt on both ends of the court with a strong double-double. Jones, the 26th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, isn't expected to play a big role for the Thunder as a rookie, but this game certainly gives a glimpse of his potential as a two-way threat in The Association.

Thunder's Adam Flagler: Scores 25 points in preseason game
Flagler notched 25 points (9-17 FG, 5-10 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, an assist and a steal across 35 minutes in Thursday's 117-89 preseason win over the New Zealand Breakers.
The Thunder rested all of their regular and gave extra minutes to players with a minimal shot of making the Opening Night roster, but Flagler certainly made the most of the opportunity. He led the Thunder in scoring and could've earned some extra minutes ahead of Oklahoma City's final two preseason games, against Denver and Atlanta, on Oct. 15 and 17, respectively.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Limited impact Wednesday
Holmgren ended with 10 points (2-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 17 minutes in Wednesday's 122-113 preseason loss to the Rockets.
Holmgren had a rough shooting performance in this preseason contest, but he still made his presence felt on the glass and as a playmaker. The second-year big man is set to open the season in a starting role, though his position and partner in the frontcourt are still undetermined. Holmgren will aim to improve in his sophomore year after averaging 16.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.3 blocks per game as a rookie across 82 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Efficient in preseason loss
Gilgeous-Alexander scored 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while adding two rebounds, six assists and a block across 19 minutes in Wednesday's 122-113 preseason loss to the Rockets.
Gilgeous-Alexander was one of the best players in the 2023-24 NBA season, and that doesn't figure to change in 2024-25 as long as he remains healthy. Preseason stats are almost meaningless for star players, but if this game serves as any indication, then the star floor general is ready for the regular-season opener against the Nuggets on Oct. 24.

Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Grabs nine rebounds off bench
Hartenstein posted six points (2-3 FG, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block across 15 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 122-113 preseason loss to the Rockets.
Hartenstein came off the bench after the Thunder decided to go with Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren in the frontcourt, but the former Knicks big man made his presence felt even though his scoring numbers weren't eye-popping. It's unclear if Hartenstein will open the season in a starting role, but a frontcourt with him and Holmgren would be an imposing duo, particularly on the defensive end.

Thunder's Alex Caruso: Will start Wednesday
Caruso will start Wednesday's preseason game against the Rockets, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Caruso didn't start Monday's preseason opener against the Spurs. However, the Thunder had an unusual starting lineup that night due to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Luguentz Dort resting. Caruso will be joined in the first five Wednesday by Gilgeous-Alexander, Dort, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren, with Isaiah Hartenstein notably coming off the bench again.

Thunder's Cason Wallace: Warming up fully
Wallace (ankle) completed his usual pregame routine in advance of Wednesday's preseason contest versus Houston, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Wallace's pregame activity bodes well for his likelihood of playing Wednesday night. The second-year guard logged 26 minutes before exiting with a mild ankle sprain in Monday's preseason opener versus San Antonio.

Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Efficient in limited run Monday
Holmgren posted 10 points (5-5 FG), two blocks, one rebound and one steal across nine minutes during Monday's 112-107 preseason win over the Spurs.
Holmgren managed to tie for game-high honors in blocks in only nine minutes, and he also ended as the club's fourth-highest scorer while shooting a perfect 5-for-5. The 22-year-old is in for a huge second season alongside Isaiah Hartenstein in the frontcourt, and Holmgren's exceptional two-way abilities will likely make him a mainstay in fantasy lineups.

Thunder's Dillon Jones: Solid all-around outing Monday
Jones logged 17 points (8-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists across 26 minutes during Monday's 112-107 preseason win over the Spurs.
Jones recorded the third-highest scoring mark on the Thunder behind Ajay Mitchell (19) and Jalen Williams (18). In his final collegiate season, the No. 26 pick of the 2024 Draft out of Weber State averaged 20.8 points, 9.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.0 steals across 37.0 minutes per game while shooting 48.9 percent from the floor. While the Thunder's roster is stacked, Jones could carve out a role in the rotation if Kenrich Williams (knee) misses time.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Racks up team-high 19 points Monday
Mitchell notched 19 points (8-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Monday's 112-107 preseason win over the Spurs.
Mitchell exploded for a team-high 19 points while coming off the bench. The No. 38 overall pick of the 2024 Draft was a scoring machine in his final season with UC Santa Barbara, during which he averaged 20.0 points while shooting 50.4 percent from the field and 39.3 percent from beyond the arc. Mitchell will likely struggle to find significant playing time among a stacked Thunder backcourt, but he is expected to spend some time in the G League to further develop under a two-way pact.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Scores 18 points Monday
Williams recorded 18 points (7-14 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 17 minutes during Monday's 112-107 preseason win over the Spurs.
Williams led the starting lineup in points, and he was one point shy of tying Ajay Mitchell's team high. Williams is coming off a stellar season during which he averaged 19.1 points, 4.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 31.3 minutes in 71 regular-season outings. The third-year pro will likely remain the second option on offense behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, though the Thunder figure to have a stacked rotation this year.
