The star big man will miss his second consecutive game due to flu, as the Thunder announced he won't play in Monday's home showdown with the Nuggets.
With Isaiah Hartenstein also out due to a calf injury, Jaylin Williams is poised to shoulder a massive responsibility of anchoring OKC's frontcourt against three-time MVP Nikola Jokic.
Holmgren is averaging a career-best 17.3 points and 9.0 rebounds with 1.9 blocks and 1.8 assists. The first-time All-Star has played 56 games thus far this year for the reigning NBA champions.
