Kevin Hervey will be available tonight for the Thunder when they host the Memphis Grizzlies.
The team announced the decision earlier Thursday afternoon, as reported by both Maddie Lee of The Oklahoman and Erik Horne of The Athletic.
Hervey was at pregame shootaround getting in extra work with Hamidou Diallo, who is still out with a hyperextended right elbow injury.
Oklahoma City signed Hervey to a Two-Way Contract on December 11. Hervey has spent the season with the Thunder’s NBA G-League affiliate, the OKC Blue. In six games for the Blue, Hervey is averaging 15.8 points and 9.2 rebounds per game and shooting 45% from the field.
In a loss to the Agua Caliente Clippers in November, Hervey went for a double-double, scoring 18 points and grabbing 15 rebounds.
Oklahoma City will look to stay hot with their fifth straight win and their second over the Grizzlies in the last eight days.
On December 18, the Thunder came from 24 points down to defeat Memphis 126-122 behind 31 points from Dennis Schroder.
Danilo Gallinari will not be available on Thursday due to a sore ankle. He scored 20 points in OKC’s four-point win eight days ago.
