Thunder Star Jalen Williams Out for Game 4 with Hamstring Injury
25 May
Summary
- Jalen Williams will miss Game 4 due to a reaggravated hamstring injury.
- He also missed Game 3, with the Thunder winning despite his absence.
- Williams' status is monitored game-to-game; he could return for Game 5.
Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder will be absent for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He is also sidelined for Game 4 of the Western Conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the second consecutive game the 25-year-old star has missed due to a left hamstring injury, originally sustained during the first round against the Phoenix Suns.
The Thunder secured a Game 3 victory despite Williams being out for the entire game and Ajay Mitchell being limited for half of it. Mitchell suffered a right soleus strain in Game 3, leaving the Thunder potentially without two of their top three postseason players.
Williams, a 2025 NBA champion and a player who earned All-NBA and All-Defensive team honors last season, is being monitored game-to-game for his injury. If Oklahoma City wins their upcoming game, they hope to have him available for Game 5, which could be a series-clinching opportunity.
