根據ESPN記者Nick Friedell報導，籃網總教練Jacque Vaughn計畫減少Kevin Durant、Royce O'Neale的上場時間。Kevin Durant本賽季場均上場36.9分鐘，Royce O'Neale本季場均則上場35.9分鐘。

A couple notes from Vaughn: He wants to roll back KD's minutes. KD is currently averaging 36.9 minutes a game. Same goes for O'Neale, who is averaging 35.9. Warren will not play in both sides of the upcoming back to back. Sumner (glute contusion) is questionable for Wed.

先前回歸賽場的TJ Warren將不會出戰接下來背靠背的比賽，Edmond Sumner因臀部挫傷在明日比賽的狀態為出戰存疑，Ben Simmons則表示自己有機率出戰周五的比賽。
