NBA Player News

Gobert (rib) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Gobert was questionable for Sunday's matchup due to a left rib injury, but he'll be available for a second consecutive game. In his return to action Friday against Cleveland, he tallied nine points, 14 rebounds, two blocks and an assist in 37 minutes.

Porzingis (hamstring) isn't on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Hawks.

Porzingis sat down Saturday as a precaution, but he'll be a full go for Monday's clash. The big man has had a solid month of March, averaging 21.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.3 blocks in six games.

Ayton (elbow) is questionable for Monday's game against the Rockets.

Ayton was handed a doubtful tag leading up to Saturday's matchup, so he appears to be moving in the right direction. The Trail Blazers will likely give him another look Monday morning to get a better idea of his availability in Houston.

Williams (back) won't play Monday against the Cavaliers.

Williams continues to miss time due to a back injury and remains without a timetable for a return. His next chance to take the court will arrive Wednesday against Cleveland.

Okongwu (toe) won't play Monday against Boston, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Okongwu will miss his second consecutive game due to a left toe sprain after he had recently returned from a 13-game absence on account of the same injury. Though Atlanta hasn't indicated that Okongwu aggravated the issue, it's noteworthy that his consecutive absences have both come in standalone games rather than as part of back-to-back sets. With Okongwu sidelined Monday, Bruno Fernando should see an enhanced role in the rotation as the backup center behind starter Clint Capela.

Tillman is questionable Monday against Atlanta due to left knee swelling, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Left knee issues have plagued Tillman throughout this season, so a resurfacing of the injury designation is notable. He logged just 11 minutes in Saturday's win over Chicago after averaging 18.5 minutes across six prior appearances, so his status for Monday's game is murky.

Robinson (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pistons, Stefan Bondy of the New York Post reports.

Robinson remains on the road to recovery after undergoing surgery on his left ankle Dec. 8. Steve Popper of Newsday reported last Wednesday that Robinson was able to complete his first full practice with the Knicks since his surgery, so the veteran center appears to be day-to-day rather than week-to-week at this stage of his recovery. If he's able to get in another workout with the team Tuesday, Robinson could be cleared to play as soon as Wednesday in Toronto.

Kleber is questionable for Monday's game against Utah due to right knee soreness, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

Kleber's status will need to be monitored entering a back-to-back Monday and Tuesday against Utah and Sacramento, respectively. Dereck Lively and Daniel Gafford would see slight upticks in roles if Kleber is unable to suit up.

Porter (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Porter will miss his second straight contest while tending to a personal matter. Mouhamadou Gueye, Jordan Nwora and Jalen McDaniels should continue to benefit as a result of Porter's absence.

Theis (knee) isn't on the injury report for Sunday's game against the 76ers.

Theis received medical attention after suffering what appeared to be a minor knee injury during Friday's win over Portland, but the issue won't force him to miss any additional time. Look for him to serve as the primary backup to Ivica Zubac on Sunday while he faces no competition for reserve minutes from P.J. Tucker (calf), who has been ruled out for the contest.
