Batum (wrist) will not play Tuesday against Oklahoma City.

Analysis:

Batum's wrist sprain flared up in Monday's loss to the Rockets, and the team will hold him out Tuesday, likely as a precaution more than anything. While his presence as an all-around player will be missed, the blow is softened by the fact that Kevin Durant (ankle) will miss his third straight game.
