The Oklahoma City Thunder were already coming to Oracle Arena knowing that Russell Westbrook would be out, but their starting lineup was still in doubt until a few minutes ago when (former Oklahoman reporter) Anthony Slater tweeted that Steven Adams was cleared to play.
Erik Horne of The Oklahoman described the situation earlier today, reporting that Adams was a gametime decision due to a back injury that kept him out of practice yesterday.
Westbrook continues his recovery from arthroscopic surgery on his right knee, while Adams is dealing with lower back stiffness he started experiencing toward the end of practice Sunday in Oklahoma City, per Donovan.
