  • Hornets' Mason Plumlee: Picks up leg injury

    Plumlee has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Cavaliers due to right groin soreness. He'll finish the night with five points (2-4 FG, 1-1 FT) and five rebounds in 10 minutes.

    It's unclear as to when Plumlee suffered the injury, but the team has elected to shut him down for the night. He can be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against Washington until further notice.

  • Pacers' Isaiah Jackson: Won't return Monday

    Jackson is having his head evaluated and will not return to Monday's game versus the Celtics.

    Jackson will end his evening with one block and one turnover in two minutes off the bench. His next chance to play will come Tuesday versus the Bucks, and for now, Jackson should be considered questionable for that one.

  • Nuggets' Jonas Valanciunas: Good to go Monday

    Valanciunas (illness) is available for Monday's game against the Jazz.

    Valanciunas was a late addition to the injury report Monday, though he'll shed his probable tag due to an illness. Over his last five games, the veteran big man has averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 rebounds in 15.0 minutes per contest.

  • Clippers' Yanic Konan Niederhauser: Will suit up Tuesday

    Niederhauser (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Rockets, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Niederhauser has missed LA's last two games with a knee injury but has received the green light to suit up Tuesday. He hasn't had much of a role this season for the parent club and has appeared in only three games since Dec. 1, averaging 2.7 points and 1.3 rebounds in 6.3 minutes over that stretch.

  • Steven Adams C | HOU

    Rockets' Steven Adams: Cleared to play

    Adams (rest) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

    Adams took a seat for Sunday's matchup with the Kings, but he'll be back in action Tuesday night. The big man is averaging 3.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals over his last five games.

  • Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Good to go for Tuesday

    Ayton (elbow) is available for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

    Ayton was a full participant in Monday's practice and is set for a return following a two-game absence. He had averaged a double-double in his previous five games before going down with the elbow injury, so his presence should provide a boost for LA with Luka Doncic (leg) and Rui Hachimura (groin) sidelined.

  • Hornets' Mason Plumlee: Starting Monday

    Plumlee is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

    The veteran center is getting the start in place of the injured Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow). Plumlee logged 23 minutes in his lone start of the season during the Nov. 23 loss in Atlanta, so a rise in streaming appeal should be expected Monday.

  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Questionable for Tuesday

    Wembanyama is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Thunder due to left calf injury management, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

    The Spurs continue to ease Wembanyama back to a full workload following a 12-game absence due to a left calf strain and could hold him out of Tuesday's contest. If the star big man is ultimately ruled out, Luke Kornet and Kelly Olynyk are candidates for increased minutes. Wembanyama has played in four regular-season games since the extended absence but has yet to log more than 21 minutes in any of them, averaging 19.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.5 blocks in 20.0 minutes per tilt over that stretch.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Questionable for Tuesday

    Bagley (calf) is questionable to play Tuesday versus the Hornets.

    Bagley skipped the second leg of a back-to-back set Sunday due to some soreness in his left calf, but it looks like he might be able to get back out there for Tuesday's game. If Bagley is able to return, he'll likely split the reserve big man minutes with Tristan Vukcevic.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Not listed on injury report

    Sarr (adductor) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game in Charlotte.

    Sarr sat out Sunday's game, which came as the second leg of a back-to-back set, but he'll be back in action Tuesday night, which will likely shift Tristan Vukcevic back to the second unit. It'll be interesting to see if Sarr, who has been limited to minutes in the mid-20s since his return, will be able to sniff closer to 30 minutes in his third game back.
