Oklahoma City Thunder forward Ousmane Dieng (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 21-year-old missed the final month of the regular season due to a left calf strain, and it's unclear when he will be available again. Dieng averaged 3.8 points and 2.2 rebounds in 10.9 minutes during the regular season. With his absence, Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams are positioned to earn more playing time off the Thunder bench.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Ousmane Dieng (wrist) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Dieng hasn't suited up over the last four games while he deals with left wrist soreness. He'll be available for this game and could see more run with Chet Holmgren (ankle) sidelined for this game. Dieng is averaging 11 minutes per game this season and he hasn't done much outside of a 21-point game last month. Fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option ahead of Sunday's slate.

On Wednesday, Oklahoma City Thunder Executive Vice President and General Manager Sam Presti announced they had exercised their fourth-year contract option on forward Ousmane Dieng. Dieng has played 72 games in the past two seasons and averaged 4.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 13 minutes per contest. The 21-year-old had an excellent season in the G League in 2024 as he helped the Blue win their first Championship and was named G League Finals MVP.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Ousmane Dieng had a red-hot shooting night during an impressive performance against Indiana in the Las Vegas Summer League on Wednesday. He was 3-for-4 with the three-ball and ended up missing just two of his 11 shot attempts during a 22-point effort. The 20-year-old was one rebound short of his second double-double in this year's Summer League games and wrapped things up with six assists and one steal. The Summer League has been all about Chet Holmgren for the Thunder this year, but Dieng has also performed very well, showing that could be ready to make a major step forward in 2023-24. The young Frenchmen played only 39 games during his rookie campaign and was limited to 14.9 minutes. While getting 30-plus minutes in the Summer League, Dieng has posted 14.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.2 steals with 43.5 percent shooting from deep.
