Serge Ibaka: Expected to play Saturday

Ibaka (rest) is expected to participate in Saturday's matchup with the Pacers, Anthony Slater of The Oklahoman reports.

Analysis:

The Thunder opted to give Ibaka a night off to rest for the first time this season in Friday night's matchup with the 76ers. His play has been relatively inconsistent recently, and head coach Billy Donovan thought Friday provided a good opportunity to rest his veteran big man. Donovan indicated that their would only be one day off, and that he expected Ibaka to be back in the lineup Saturday against the Pacers. Expect him to take on his usual workload.
