Oklahoma City Thunder: Mark Daigneault

Thunder coach Mark Daigneault made a rare lineup adjustment by inserting Isaiah Joe into the starting lineup instead of Josh Giddey, who had started 210 consecutive games. This change did not have the desired impact, as Joe struggled defensively and Doncic capitalized on the matchup. Despite this adjustment, Giddey still made a positive contribution when he entered the game.
