Every injury is awful. Full strength basketball is more enjoyable to watch. I want the Thunder to beat the Nuggets, Spurs, Lakers, etc. with everyone on both teams playing with good health. Cason Wallace is my favorite Thunder player and him being out, potentially for months, if not the year, is rough to think about. The injuries across the NBA (especially on the Thunder) is altering the basketball landscape, and while that has always been an issue, it doesn’t make it any easier to digest.

Chet Holmgren has passed Josh Giddey for 9th most rebounds in Thunder history.

Season altering game. Shai crying during the interview because of the Jalen Williams injury. Heartbreaking. #ThunderUp

Cason Wallace started the season in 119th place among active players in career steals. He has since passed John Collins for 118th place. Cason is 2 steals behind Kyle Kuzma for 117th.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has passed Baron Davis for 221st most points scored in NBA history.

The Thunder historically use their two-way players quite a bit, and have converted many players (Dort, Wiggins, Ajay, etc.) to standard contracts. Having flexibility matters in a long season, and there’s a path to keep Oweh on the franchise, while the Thunder have every tool.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has passed Isaiah Joe for 4th most 3-pointers made in Thunder history.

Nikola Jokic has started and played at least 30 minutes in 578 regular season games. Tonight was the 3rd fewest points his team has scored in those games: 2018-01-13 at SAS 80 points 2017-11-13 at POR 82 points 2026-10-22 at OKC 84 points

I see these stats, and I don't know where the reference is from. Jason Kidd has 450 career blocked shots while Shai has 425. Jrue Holiday is a PG. He has 541 blocks. James Harden is debatable. He has played more PG than SG. He has 683 blocks.

Alex Caruso has passed Josh Giddey for 19th most steals in Thunder history.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander started the season with the 224th most points scored in NBA history. With 32 points last night, he has passed Steve Smith on the NBA's All-Time list.

Cason Wallace Career - Marcus Smart to Eddie Jones? Looking at Cason's stats of PTS, REB, AST, STL, and 3s per 36 minutes in his first 3 seasons, and comparing historically those were the reasonable ranges I found. Low End - Marcus Smart 6th overall pick who at his peak was the DPOY, and a starter for a team that made deep playoff runs. Smart never developed a consistent shot, but had an impactful career. High End - Eddie Jones 10th overall pick (as was Cason) who peaked as an All-Star and All-Defensive player. The rate stats (except PTS) between the two are spot on, as are the FG% and 3PT%. Cason getting as many points, is unlikely, but not impossible for him to get into the mid-teens. Eddie's stats look a little better overall as he was playing 39 minutes a game at his peak. Just a last stat of how young Cason Wallace is. He is entering his 4th season tomorrow and will be 22 years and 347 years old. Eddie Jones was 23 years and 15 years old in his first career NBA game.

Who remembers the “Cason Wallace is going to sign elsewhere” offseason rumors?
