Is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander playing tonight against the Orlando Magic? Latest on 2x All-Star's status (February 13)

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the OKC Thunder will look to stay close to the top of the West when they visit the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. The Magic have won two in a row and are sixth in the East with a 29-24 record. Meanwhile, the Thunder are second with a 36-17 record.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is not part of the official injury report, therefore he will be good to for the matchup. Still, the Thunder have ruled their newest two additions out, as both Gordon Hayward and Bismack Biyombo are expected to make their debut with OKC after the All-Star Break.

The Thunder didn't shake their roster up, but added a couple of pieces that could offer them more weapons off the bench.
