Injury update

Chet Holmgren has been listed as OUT for the Thunder tonight. The Thunder star has yet to play the second leg of a back-to-back game for OKC since his return from a fractured hip. Oklahoma City was outrebounded by Minnesota on Sunday 44-37 while also turning the ball of 13 times.

Missing the starting frontcourt, Rudy Gobert (back) and Julius Randle (groin), the Timberwolves lost Jaylen Clark in the third quarter last night when he hit the back of his head on the floor after an off-balance layup.

Clark, who made his second career start, was ruled out with neck pain. The Timberwolves have listed Donte DiVincenzo, Rudy Gobert, Julius Randle, as out, while updating Jaylen Clark's status to questionable for tonight.
