Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star Jalen Williams underwent a follow-up procedure on his right wrist to remove a screw that was creating irritation during the final stages of his return to play process, the team announced on Friday evening.

Williams will be re-evaluated in 10-14 days.

Right after the Thunder claimed their first championship in team history, Williams underwent a procedure to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in his right wrist. He played through the 2025 NBA Finals with this injury, averaging 23.6 points per game against the Indiana Pacers.
