Double-double against Spurs
Holmgren notched 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes during Thursday's 117-102 loss to San Antonio.
Analysis
The double-double was Holmgren's fifth of the season, and first since Nov. 11. The 23-year-old big looked none the worse for wear after leaving Tuesday's contest in the fourth quarter after getting popped in the face, and over his last 12 contests he's averaging 17.4 points, 7.8 boards, 1.4 threes, 1.3 assists and 1.3 blocks.

Exits early Tuesday
Holmgren exited Tuesday's 130-110 loss to the Spurs with 7:08 remaining in the fourth quarter due to an apparent facial injury and did not return, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.
Analysis
Holmgren took a shot to the face from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and did not check back in after exiting the game. While it's unclear if Holmgren was available to return, the Thunder could have been taking a cautious approach considering the Spurs had a double-digit lead. The star big man's next opportunity to play will come in Thursday's rematch against San Antonio, and the Thunder are expected to provide an update on his status by Wednesday night.

Available for Tuesday
Holmgren (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.
Analysis
Holmgren will be back in action after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. Through 24 games, Holmgren holds averages of 18.7 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers.

Listed out for Monday
Holmgren (illness) will not play Monday against the Grizzlies.
Analysis
Holmgren was unable to shake his questionable tag and will miss the front end of this back-to-back set. Isaiah Hartenstein (lower leg) and Jaylin Williams (heel) have already been ruled out, so the Thunder could deploy some small-ball lineups Monday. Kenrich Williams and Branden Carlson could be in the mix for more run as a result.

Questionable for Monday
Holmgren is questionable to play Monday versus Memphis due to back spasms.
Analysis
Holmgren's back is acting up, and Monday's matchup will be the first of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him hit the sidelines. If he can't give it a go, there will be more opportunity for guys like Cason Wallace and Kenrich Williams, as Isaiah Hartenstein (lower leg) and Ousmane Dieng (calf) have already been ruled out.
