Jalen Williams leaves Thunder-Spurs Game 2 with apparent hamstring injury

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams left Game 2 against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday, May 21, 2026, after just seven minutes of play in the first quarter with an apparent left hamstring injury. Williams did not return before halftime and was absent for the start of the third quarter, with Cason Wallace taking his place in the starting lineup. According to ESPN's Tim MacMahon, the injury is to the same left hamstring that caused Williams to miss six previous playoff games, including Oklahoma City's entire four-game second-round series against the Los Angeles Lakers.
