Oklahoma City Thunder star Chet Holmgren will miss his third consecutive game due to right knee patellar tendinitis when the team faces the Houston Rockets on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. CT.
The Thunder (4-1) will also be without Jalen Williams (left ankle surgery), Cason Wallace (left shoulder labral tear), Alex Caruso (right ankle sprain), Nikola Topić (low back surgery) and Thomas Sorber (right knee surgery). Williams underwent successful surgery on Wednesday and will be re-evaluated before the end of the regular season, while Wallace's timeline will be determined after his procedure.
The Rockets had not yet submitted their injury report as of Friday evening.
