Eubanks will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Eubanks will rejoin the reserves for Wednesday's game due to Jusuf Nurkic being back from a one-game absence. In his last 10 appearances, Eubanks is averaging 4.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks.

Plumlee will start Wednesday's game against the Suns, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Despite Ivica Zubac being active, Plumlee will draw the starting nod against Phoenix. He shouldn't be expected to see typical starter's minutes but could be a decent source of rebounds.

Zubac will not start Wednesday's game against the Suns, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

Zubac has been dealing with inflammation in his left ankle ahead of Wednesday's game and will likely have his minutes monitored. He will be replaced by Mason Plumlee in the first unit.

Zubac (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Suns.

Zubac has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday despite dealing with left ankle inflammation. The 26-year-old big man has been one of the most efficient players in the league, shooting 64.7 percent from the field this season.

Jokic (hip) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves.

Jokic has been upgraded from probable to available despite dealing with left hip inflammation. Denver will be able to roll out their typical starting five against Minnesota in a crucial contest to determine the top seed in the Western Conference.

Collins will start Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Collins will replace Victor Wembanyama (rest) in the start lineup against Oklahoma City. In 27 starts this season, Collins is averaging 14.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.6 assists.

Kessler (nose) is out for Thursday's game versus the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

Kessler will miss his fourth straight contest Thursday due to a nasal fracture. Omer Yurtseven should receive another start in his absence.

Collins (back) won't suit up for Thursday's game against the Rockets, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

Collins will miss his sixth straight game Thursday due to back spasms, and the Jazz haven't offered much of an indication that he'll be available for the team's final two games of the campaign. With Walker Kessler (nose) also sidelined Thursday, Omer Yurtseven should continue to operate as Utah's starting center.

Williams will start Wedneesday's game against Brooklyn, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Williams will take the place of Kelly Olynyk (rest) for his second start of the campaign. Despite going scoreless across 31 minutes in his first start, Williams is still an intriguing option considering he's a solid contributor on the glass and as a shot-blocker.

Coach Jason Kidd said Wednesday that Lively (knee) is unlikely to play in any of the Mavericks' final three regular-season games, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The rookie center still isn't practicing and has been sidelined since March 31 due to a right knee sprain. His status for the postseason remains unclear, but Lively will have extra time to rest and rehab if Dallas can win one more game and avoid the Play-In Tournament. He'll finish the regular season with averages of 8.8 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.4 blocks, 1.1 assists and 0.7 steals in 23.5 minutes over 55 appearances while shooting 74.7 percent from the field and 50.6 percent from the free-throw line.
