  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Upgraded to available

    Gafford (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

    Gafford is back from a two-game absence due to a right shoulder sprain and should force Dwight Powell to the bench Monday. Over his last six appearances, Gafford has averaged 18.0 points, 10.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 25.9 minutes per game while shooting a robust 78.9 percent from the field.

  • Bulls' Nick Richards: Won't play Monday

    Richards (elbow) won't play in Monday's game against the Spurs.

    Richards will miss a third consecutive game due to a sprained right elbow. As a result, Guerschon Yabusele (ankle), who is available to play following a one-game absence, will presumably reclaim a spot in the starting lineup.

  • Myles Turner C | MIL

    Bucks' Myles Turner: Off injury report for Tuesday

    Turner (knee) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.

    Turner missed Sunday's loss to the Clippers with a knee issue but is set to return Tuesday, and he'll likely push either Jericho Sims or Pete Nance to the bench. Turner has averaged 10.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.9 blocks in 24.3 minutes per contest in his last eight games.

  • Celtics' Neemias Queta: Unavailable versus Atlanta

    Queta (thumb) won't play in Monday's game against the Hawks, according to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com.

    Queta finished with 17 points, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in Sunday's 114-99 win over Charlotte. However, he won't suit up for the second of a back-to-back, meaning his next opportunity to play will be Wednesday in Miami. With Queta ruled out, Luka Garza is anticipated to enter the starting lineup. In four starts this season, Garza has averaged 6.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.5 assists and 0.5 steals across 17.8 minutes of work.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Hawks' Jock Landale: Won't go Monday

    Landale (illness) is out for Monday's game against the Celtics, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

    Landale was added to the injury report due to an illness, and he's not feeling healthy enough to give it a go. This should open up some playing time for Mouhamed Gueye or Christian Koloko in the frontcourt.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Game-time decision Monday

    Sarr (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against the Lakers.

    Sarr was initially left off the team's injury report, but he's since been added with a questionable tag after also sitting out Sunday due to left big toe injury management. Washington should have a better idea of whether he'll suit up closer to tipoff.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Absent from injury report

    Sarr (toe) isn't on the injury report for Monday's game versus the Lakers.

    Sarr is available for the second part of this back-to-back set Monday. The Wizards are scaling back the second-year center's workload as of late -- Sarr has averaged 11.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.9 blocks in 21.2 minutes per tilt in his last seven games.

  • Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Sitting out Monday

    Hartenstein has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pistons due to right soleus injury management.

    Hartenstein has yet to play in both ends of a back-to-back set since initially suffering a right soleus strain in November, so his absence Monday isn't especially surprising after he logged 24 minutes in Sunday's 111-100 win over the Knicks. With Hartenstein and Jalen Williams (hamstring) sitting out, the Thunder are likely to lean more heavily on Chet Holmgren and Jaylin Williams in the frontcourt.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Ruled out Monday

    Duren (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Thunder.

    Duren was previously listed as doubtful for this contest, so it's not a surprise to see him sit out for the first leg of this back-to-back set. Paul Reed is likely to be a solid streaming option for this contest.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Hawks' Jock Landale: Questionable with illness

    Landale (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against Boston.

    Landale's status could be determined closer to Monday's pregame warmups. Mouhamed Gueye would likely move into the No. 2 center spot if Landale cannot suit up versus the Celtics.
