Chet Holmgren Ruled Out for Monday's Game Against Grizzlies Due to Back Injury

Oklahoma City Thunder's Chet Holmgren (back) has been officially ruled out for Monday's game against the Grizzlies. Despite being listed as questionable, he was unable to clear his status and will miss the first game of a back-to-back set. With Isaiah Hartenstein (lower leg) and Jaylin Williams (heel) also sidelined, the Thunder may opt for small-ball lineups. Kenrich Williams and Branden Carlson are expected to see increased playing time as a result of Holmgren's absence.
