The Oklahoma City Thunder<\/a> visit the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night. Chet Holmgren<\/a> is on the injury report<\/a> alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander<\/a> and Jalen Williams<\/a>, with both players listed as probable. Holmgren is dealing with back spasms after going for 17 points and 15 rebounds in a 111-89 win against the Cleveland Cavs, while Gilgeous-Alexander continues to recover from an abdominal injury. Williams continues his recovery from a hamstring strain<\/a>. Here’s everything we know about Chet Holmgren’s injury and his playing status vs. the Raptors.<\/p>\n

Chet Holmgren injury status vs. Raptors\"ThunderAlonzo Adams-Imagn Images<\/p>\n

Despite the that fact that 2025-26 has been Thunder forward Chet Holmgren’s first All-Star season<\/a>, the nagging back injury has flared up from time to time throughout the year. Given Holmgren’s questionable status for Tuesday’s matchup, it’s difficult to gauge whether he’ll play or not.<\/p>\n

As the Thunder continues on its regular-season schedule without All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, Ajay Mitchell, and possibly Alex Caruso, who was ruled out of Sunday’s matinee against the Cavs with a left ankle sprain. Caruso is listed as questionable as Holmgren is.<\/p>\n

Returning from his first All-Star selection, Holmgren has helped the Thunder secure a pair of wins against the Brooklyn Nets and the Cleveland Cavs on Sunday. He’s been the defending champion’s defensive anchor, while cleaning the glass in the paint.<\/p>\n

The Raptors upset the Thunder in their last meeting in January. Holmgren finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds in a game where Gilgeous-Alexander was available as the Raptors edged out the defending champs in a 103-101 victory. The Thunder may have to avenge that loss without its starting forward.<\/p>\n

When it comes to the question if whether Chet Holmgren is playing tonight vs. the Raptors, the answer is maybe.<\/p>\n
