Thunder's Cason Wallace to undergo surgery on torn labrum

In what is far and away the least important development of the night, Oklahoma City has hung on to defeat the Clippers 108-101. The Thunder lost Cason Wallace to a shoulder injury in the first quarter, and Jalen Williams appeared to suffer a serious injury to his left leg late in the fourth quarter.

Wow. OKC effectively suffers two season ending injuries on the same night in October. Cason Wallace labrum tear will need six months post surgery. I had that. It takes a lot of time to get back. Jalen Williams…that injury is heartbreaking.

The Thunder no longer list Thomas Sorber or Nikola Topic on the injury report signaling a return to the floor and potentially Sorber’s debut. Chet Holmgren (Right Patellar Tendinitis) OUT Jalen Williams (Left Lower Leg Injury) OUT Cason Wallace (Left Shoulder Soreness) OUT

Wrote up a quick-hit piece for @spotrac.com on the options the Thunder have after losing Jalen Williams and Cason Wallace. Spoiler: I expect them to be patient and not to do anything immediately, but they do have some options. www.spotrac.com/news/_/id/35...

OKC could be without Jalen Williams and Cason Wallace for the remainder of the season 😬 (H/T Shams Charania)

This is one of the most brutal days I can remember for an NBA team. Here's what the injuries to Jalen Williams and Cason Wallace mean for the Thunder—and the title race.

missed this because I've been trying to help family, friends, and neighbors watch tonight's game, but Cason Wallace exited with a shoulder injury early in the first quarter. Suboptimal. For both Cason's shoulder and local sports streaming.

The Thunder, already reeling from Jalen Williams horrific injury, suffer another serious injury, this time to Cason Wallace. Potentially season-altering news here @theathletic.com (unlocked and free to read) www.nytimes.com/athletic/772...

Devastating blow for OKC. I think we all assumed J Dub was done for the year, but losing Wallace as well is a gut punch. Wonder if they consider making a trade fo some sorts because of this.

Speechless… sending all prayers for Jalen Williams Ajay Mitchell is now the secondary creator & starter Kenrich Williams now plays a massive role on the wing Hopefully Cason Wallace & Jaylin Williams' injuries aren't serious Everything just flipped
