The Oklahoma City Thunder are dealing with another injury to their frontcourt. Ousmane Dieng will miss three to four weeks with a fractured right ring finger.
Dieng has played a role as a backup big man in small-ball Thunder lineups this season. The third-year forward has played in all 16 games for Oklahoma City to date. Dieng is averaging 3.5 points and 2.6 rebounds in 11.6 minutes per game.
The Thunder recently welcomed Isaiah Hartenstein back from his fractured hand. Chet Holmgren is expected to miss several more weeks with a hip injury.
