Jalen Williams injury: Thunder star stretchered off floor after nasty ankle injury vs. Clippers

Oklahoma City secured a 108-101 victory against Los Angeles on Sunday, but the contest was marred by a severe ankle injury to Jalen Williams. The wing player went down late in the fourth quarter following a drive to the basket and required a stretcher to exit the arena, though he signaled to fans while leaving the court.

Williams had contributed eight points across 32 minutes of play before the incident occurred. Teammate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who recorded 34 points in the win, was visibly emotional as he watched the medical staff attend to his colleague.

The Thunder now face uncertainty regarding the availability of one of their primary two-way contributors.
