    Even if he gets the correct splint, he needs to rest a bit. Let it heal.

    If he can't go I would think about activating Claver. Durant would abuse him seeing that it would be his first action in a while, but height wise he could help against Durant.

    So far on this road trip, they have 2-1 playing 5-on-8. Now it will be 4-on-8. Ugh.

    It's either him, Wright, or CJ.

    That will be a big loss if he isn't able to suit up. If that happens i'd activate Crabbe and just try raining three's all day on OKC and when they are on the other end make sure you give Durant a bruise everytime he gets his 18 FT's of tomorrow nights game.

    Do a Coach Pop and send the starters home.

    Durant for 60? This could be really bad if it happens. Luckily we took the first 2.

    Send him out for the opening tip with orders to start a fight with Durrant and get them both kicked out.

    You know if Batum can't go I would start Wright.

    Stotts will probably start Mo, and put Matthews on Durant. In the middle of the first, when Wessy has fouled out, we'll see Wright.
