Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander ruled out with elbow injury vs. Jazz

The Oklahoma City Thunder will be without the reigning MVP as they aim to continue their record pace.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been ruled out for Oklahoma City’s game against the Utah Jazz on Sunday with left elbow bursitis.

The Thunder will also be without a slew of important role players, including Luguentz Dort (right adductor strain), Alex Caruso (right quad contusion), Isaiah Hartenstein (right soleus strain) and Isaiah Joe (left knee soreness).

Gilgeous-Alexander, 27, is yet to miss a game this season and is averaging more points (32.8) in less minutes (33.3) than he did during his 2024-25 MVP season.

The Toronto-born guard is also shooting career-best percentages from the field (55.6 percent) and from three-point range (44.3 percent).

Oklahoma City’s other all-star last season, Jalen Williams, has played only four games after returning from off-season wrist surgery on Nov. 28. Still, the team has excelled despite injuries, winning its last 15 games for an NBA-best 22-1 record.

They’ll look to remain dominant, even without their leader, against the Jazz on Sunday. Watch the game on Sportsnet ONE and Sportsnet+ at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.
