Charlotte Hornets DFS Spin
Gordon Hayward is doubtful for Tuesday's tilt with the Thunder due to a left thumb sprain. With Hayward likely to sit this one out, Kelly Oubre Jr. could be in line for additional minutes if he's able to return following a two-game absence, while guys like Svi Mykhailiuk and Bryce McGowens could log some extra playing time.
Oklahoma City Thunder DFS Spin
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Hornets due to a left ankle sprain. SGA has appeared in each of the Thunder's last seven games, but he's in danger of sitting out against Charlotte. If he's ruled out, Isaiah Joe would presumably jump into the starting five. Izzy Joe has averaged 14.3 points and 3.1 triples across eight starts this season.
