Alex Caruso of the Oklahoma City Thunder recently gave his thoughts on how the team will fair in the absence of Isaiah Hartenstein.

Isaiah Hartenstein missed the first month with a fractured hand — and now will miss at least a week with a calf strain. The Thunder are back to their small-ball era. The gap between Holmgren's injury and Hartenstein's return lasted over a week in Nov.

Thunder center Isaiah Hartenstein will be reevaluated in approximately one week after suffering a left soleus strain.
