Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams is listed as questionable for Game 5 of the Western Conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. PH time. The defending champions are hoping to have him back as they host the Spurs with the series tied 2-2.
Injury Update
Williams aggravated a left hamstring injury in Game 2 and did not finish the game. The Thunder have listed him as questionable, meaning he could play if the team determines he is ready. His potential return is crucial, especially since guard Ajay Mitchell has been ruled out due to a calf injury sustained in Game 3.
Impact on the Series
Without Williams and Mitchell, the Thunder struggled in Game 4, losing 103-82 to the Spurs. Victor Wembanyama dominated, and the Spurs took advantage of the depleted Thunder lineup to tie the series. If the Spurs can capitalize again, they need just one more win to reach the NBA Finals for the first time since 2014.
The Thunder are eager to regain Williams' scoring and defensive presence. His status will be a game-time decision, and his availability could shift the momentum back in Oklahoma City's favor.
