Clarke (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Clarke has been recovering from offseason knee surgery and has finally received clearance to make his season debut. With Zach Edey (ankle) sidelined for multiple weeks, Clarke has the opportunity to claim a significant role off the bench. Given the lengthy layoff, the Grizzlies could look to ease Clarke into action.

Ayton has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Jazz due to left elbow soreness, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

Ayton's absence should mean more opportunities for Jaxson Hayes and Jarred Vanderbilt. Ayton's next chance to play will come Saturday against the Clippers.

Horford (back) is out for Thursday's game against the Suns.

Horford continues to nurse sciatic nerve irritation, which is going to have kept him out for nine of the last 10 games following Thursday. With the veteran big man sidelined, the expectation is that Quinten Post will continue starting at center.

Sarr (thigh) is off the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Spurs.

Sarr is set to return Thursday from a six-game absence due to a right adductor strain. His return means Marvin Bagley -- who has started in the Wizards' last six games -- will likely revert to a rotational role, though he could still have meaningful playing time off the bench if Sarr's minutes are capped.

Hartenstein (rest) won't play Thursday against the Clippers, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Hartenstein will be held out of the first leg of a back-to-back for injury management purposes, but he should be back in action Friday in Minnesota. Chet Holmgren will spend more time at center Thursday with Hartenstein watching from the sidelines, and there will be more minutes available for Kenrich Williams and Ousmane Dieng.

Poeltl is listed as probable for Thursday's game against Milwaukee due to back injury management, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Poeltl is at risk of being rested for Thursday's contest due to a lingering back injury. The center has appeared in 20 games this season, averaging 10.1 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 26.2 minutes. Sandro Mamukelashvili and Collin Murray-Boyles would likely see an uptick in minutes if Poeltl sits.

Robinson (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pacers.

With Thursday being the first half of a back-to-back, the Knicks are considering keeping Robinson out for left ankle injury management. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is also uncertain for Thursday, meaning New York could end up having a timeshare at center between Ariel Hukporti and Guerschon Yabusele.

Towns is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pacers due to left knee soreness.

Towns presumably picked up the injury during Tuesday's 124-113 victory over San Antonio. Given that Thursday is the front end of a back-to-back, it wouldn't be surprising if the Knicks hold out the superstar big man. With Mitchell Robinson (ankle) also questionable, New York could be down to Guerschon Yabusele and Ariel Hukporti at center.

Sabonis (knee) is scheduled to be re-evaluated in the coming days, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports Wednesday.

Sabonis is a month into a three-to-four week re-evaluation window, so he's definitely due for an update from the Kings. With the team sitting at 6-20 in the Western Conference, it's unlikely that the center will be rushed back into action. As long as he's sidelined, the Kings will continue to lean on Maxime Raynaud.

Davis (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Davis missed his first game of the month Monday against the Jazz, but he was able to log a full practice Wednesday, which bodes well for his status moving forward. Over his last four appearances, Davis is averaging 18.0 points, 11.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.8 blocks.
