In this story:

Oklahoma City begins its weeklong road trip in Boston on Monday night.

The Thunder enter on the heels of back-to-back wins against the Raptors and the Knicks. OKC has been a team of streaks to begin the season entering the contest with the Celtics at 6-7.

OKC is no stranger to missing key players over the course of the season.

To begin the three game road trip Oklahoma City will be without Darius Bazley who is dealing with a sprained right ankle and Tre Mann who is managing back soreness.

The Thunder have exceeded early expectations bringing in six wins in the first 13 games, but will have a true test with NBA Championship hopeful Celtics.

The Celtics have been no stranger to adversity this season, which began in the Finals last year and has continued to plague them — especially injury wise.

Robert Williams was injured in the Boston playoff run last season, and remains out, Danilo Gallinari was injured in an offseason international contest and he’ll miss the entire season.

Here are the most recent injury reports for both squads entering tonight:

  • Chet Holmgren: Out- Right foot surgery
