Thunder's Jalen Williams: Out for at least 10 more days
The Thunder announced Friday that Williams (wrist) will be re-evaluated in 10-to-14 days, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Williams had been nearing a return to the floor, but he had to undergo a follow-up procedure on his right wrist to remove a screw. Therefore, the star forward's season debut will be delayed until Nov. 11 against the Warriors at the earliest. Luguentz Dort should play heavy minutes moving forward, while Ajay Mitchell will have a longer runway to playing time.

Williams (wrist) is listed as inactive ahead of Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Rockets, Tim MacMahon of ESPN reports.
Williams will miss Opening Night after undergoing offseason surgery on his right wrist, though he isn't expected to miss an extended period. With the star forward sidelined, Alex Caruso, Aaron Wiggins and Cason Wallace are candidates for an uptick in playing time against Houston.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Not close to return yet
Williams said Monday at Media Day that he still has a ways to go with his wrist recovery, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Williams (wrist) has been dribbling with both hands and shooting in practice, but it sounds like he's not ready to commit to a timetable. As training camp progresses, it will be interesting to see how quickly he progresses. For now, it sounds like Williams will be questionable for Opening Night on Oct. 21.

Thunder's Jalen Williams: Status uncertain for season opener
Williams (wrist) has been dribbling with both hands and shooting in practice, but his status for the start of the regular season remains up in the air, Clemente Almanza of OKC Thunder Wire reports.
Almanza notes that Williams had been practicing with a wrist brace until recently, but he's since been able to ramp up his basketball activities and is being evaluated on a day-to-day basis. "Once we get through camp, we'll see where we are," said Oklahoma City general manager Sam Presti. "As with anything, it'll be a collaborative decision as to when he returns. Ultimately, he has to feel comfortable with when that is." The Thunder should have a better idea of whether Williams will be cleared for the 2025-26 season opener Oct. 21 against the Rockets in the weeks to come.
