Injured guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander watches the Thunder play during a 116-107 loss to the Grizzlies on March 24. cover
OKC Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault announced that the team’s superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander‘s plantar fascia is actually a significant tear according to Blake Schuster of B/R. This is an update to the status of the injury which was reported earlier in the season.
In late March the Thunder said that Gilgeous-Alexander would be out for an extended period of time. However, they did not release what the actual injury was. For anyone hoping to see the star back on the court before the season ends, this is not going to happen now.
