Thunder: Terrance Ferguson available to play Monday
Thunder guard Terrance Ferguson is available to play Monday against the Bulls after missing the last five games with right hip soreness.
Thunder coach Billy Donovan did not confirm if Ferguson will start. Abdel Nader started the last five games in Ferguson's place.
Nader averaged 10.4 points per game as a starter. He made 9-of-15 (60 percent) 3-point attempts during that stretch.
Ferguson, arguably the team's best wing defender, is shooting 42.4 percent overall and 35.4 percent from 3-point range.
Donovan was asked Monday before the game if Nader showed enough in his five starts to earn consistent minutes even with Ferguson back.
