Hamidou Diallo (groin) out for Thunder at least 2 games
Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Hamidou Diallo will miss the next two games due to right groin soreness, per head coach Mark Daigneault.
What It Means:
Daigneault added that Diallo could be out through the rest of the first half of the season. Diallo hit 2-of-6 shots in 11 minutes Wednesday before leaving early with a sore groin. The Thunder could allocate a few more minutes to Kenrich Williams or Justin Jackson while Diallo is out. Diallo's next chance to play will be March 3 versus the Dallas Mavericks.
Diallo is averaging 26.8 FanDuel points over 28.3 minutes per game in February, up from 24.1 FanDuel points and 23.8 minutes per game for the season. Jackson is registering a 2.8 percent usage increase when Diallo isn't on the floor this season, highest on the team.
