Giddey Sidelined with Ankle Sprain, Misses First Game of Season
11 Nov
Summary
- Giddey ruled out for Monday's game against Spurs due to ankle sprain
- Considered day-to-day, not expected to miss significant time
- Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter to see increased minutes in Giddey's absence
On November 11, 2025, the Oklahoma City Thunder announced that rising star Josh Giddey will miss their upcoming game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a right ankle sprain. Giddey, who has been a key contributor for the Thunder this season, is considered day-to-day and is not expected to miss significant time.
In Giddey's absence, the Thunder will likely turn to Ayo Dosunmu and Kevin Huerter to step up and fill the void. Dosunmu and Huerter are expected to see increased minutes on Monday as the Thunder look to secure a win against the Spurs.
The Thunder's next opportunity to have Giddey back in the lineup will come on Wednesday when they face the Detroit Pistons. The team remains optimistic that Giddey's injury is not serious and that he will be able to return to the court in the near future.
