Jalen Williams and Ajay Mitchell will not play when the OKC Thunder hosts the San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 of the Western Conference finals at 7 p.m. CT Saturday.
Williams has been ruled out due to left hamstring strain injury management. Mitchell is out due to a right soleus (calf) strain.
Williams briefly returned during OKC's 118-91 road loss in Game 6 on Thursday after missing the last three contests, but he only logged 10 minutes off the bench. Meanwhile, Mitchell is set to miss his fourth straight game.
The absence of both players will be a huge loss for OKC, which is looking to book its ticket back to the NBA Finals. The reigning champs will try to defeat a San Antonio team that's at full strength.
