The Oklahoma City Thunder are heading to Buzz City to take on the Hornets. The Thunder are looking for their tenth straight win, while the Hornets hope to snap a six game losing skid. Oklahoma City has more than its share of injuries, most notably seeing four rotational pieces in street clothes for this contest.
As expected, the Thunder are without Chet Holmgren as the rising star will miss most of the regular season with a hip injury - but a blow to Mark Daigneault's lineup came on the most recent injury update seeing its top three defenders, Alex Caruso, Lu Dort and Cason Wallace join him on the sidelines.
