Oklahoma City Thunder vs Dallas Mavericks Injury Report

Oklahoma City Thunder swingman Kenrich Williams will be out of action on Monday night due to a knee injury.

The Thunder recently provided an update on rookie big man Chet Holmgren. He had undergone an original Lisfranc surgery on his foot in August. Last week, Holmgren underwent a secondary procedure that has been deemed successful. The dynamic big man could be at full stretch next season.

For the Mavericks, SG Josh Green will miss the contest because of an elbow injury. PF Maxi Kleber, meanwhile, is battling a foot injury. The team announced that he's day-to-day and is questionable for Monday night.

Most importantly for the Mavericks, Luka Doncic is dealing with a quad issue, but he's probable and should be ready for Monday night.

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Dallas Mavericks Betting Prediction

The story with the Mavericks remains the same as it has for quite some time. They will go as far as Doncic carries them. No player on any team carries more weight of their franchise on their shoulders than Doncic. It's well known that Luka Doncic can take over games, and that could happen on Monday night too.

The Thunder, meanwhile, are desperate to turn around their flagging fortunes and will look to play this one tough. The Mavericks should win, but the Thunder could take it close. Take the points.

Prediction: Oklahoma City Thunder +8 (-110) 228.5 O/U
