OKC Thunder Injury Report: Disastrous Lu Dort Blow as He Joins Veteran Duo with 6 Players Listed vs. Warriors (Dec. 2)

The OKC Thunder look to keep the good times rolling as they take on the struggling Golden State Warriors to close out a two-game road swing on the West Coast.

The Thunder are riding high, unbeaten in their last 12 games and holding an NBA-best 20-1 record. The strong run has propelled them to the top of the Western Conference, on course to break the 2015-16 Warriors’ historic 73-9 campaign and their 24 straight wins.

However, OKC enter Tuesday’s game quite banged up, with six players listed on the injury report. Lu Dort is the latest to enter the treatment room with an adductor strain. The guard also missed the previous clash against the Warriors with a shoulder injury.

Alex Caruso will once again be out, just as he was during Sunday’s win in Portland, due to right quad soreness. This marks his seventh missed game of the season. Isaiah Hartenstein remains sidelined with a right soleus strain. He will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

Meanwhile, Branden Carlson is available after missing time with a nasal fracture, while long-term absentees Sorber Thomas (ACL) and Brooks Barnhizer (two-way) are also sidelined.

Their counterparts also remain light, with Steph Curry, Al Horford, Nikola Topić, Alex Tchikou and De’Anthony Melton unavailable. Jimmy Butler and Trayce Jackson-Davis are questionable, and Draymond Green is listed as probable. New signing Seth Curry is likely to make his season debut on Tuesday.
