George Hill Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest
4 years agoOklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard George Hill (thumb) has been deemed unavailable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a sprained right thumb. Despite the ailment, Hill was able to drop a season-high 22 points Sunday, with the team opting not to run him out for the second leg of a back-to-back. Hamidou Diallo figures to see an uptick in usage, while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander could see an even larger share of ball-handling duties. Hill has delivered modest fantasy production this year (11.8 PPG), but his capped minutes total likely cuts into much of his season-long value. His next chance to take the floor comes Wednesday versus Phoenix.
