    Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Scores 29 in win

    Holmgren recorded 29 points (12-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, four blocks and an assist in 29 minutes during Sunday's 129-104 win over the 76ers.

    Holmgren came into Sunday's contest in an offensive slump of sorts, averaging 10.3 points over his previous three appearances, but he bounced back in a major way Sunday, racking up a game-high 29 points. In addition to his offensive output, Holmgren made a significant impact on the defensive end, matching his season high of four blocks.

    Warriors' Al Horford: Won't play Monday

    Warriors head coach Steve Kerr confirmed prior to Sunday's 141-127 overtime loss to the Raptors that Horford will sit out Monday against the Nets for rest purposes, Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    In what's been the standard protocol for Horford for the last few seasons, the veteran big man will sit out one half of a back-to-back set. During Sunday's loss, Horford logged seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and two blocks across 17 minutes. Horford should be back in action Wednesday at Charlotte.

  • Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Won't play Monday

    Robinson has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to left ankle injury management.

    Robinson has dealt with a lingering ankle injury this season, and he'll get the night off Monday to manage the issue. His absence could open up more minutes for Ariel Hukporti or Guerschon Yabusele. Robinson's next chance to play will come Wednesday in San Antonio.

  • Pacers' Isaiah Jackson: Unavailable for Monday

    Jackson (concussion) is out for Monday's game against the Rockets.

    Jackson will miss a fourth straight game due to a concussion. Tony Bradley and Micah Potter are candidates for extra minutes, especially if Jay Huff (ankle) is also unable to suit up.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Pacers' Jay Huff: Tending to ankle sprain

    Huff is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Houston due to a left ankle sprain.

    Huff is at risk of missing his first game of the season, as the big man is battling a sprained ankle. He's started 14 consecutive games for the Pacers, averaging 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.9 blocks across 23.6 minutes during that stretch. With backup center Isaiah Jackson (concussion) out, Indiana would likely turn to Micah Potter and Tony Bradley if Huff doesn't play.

  • Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Doesn't return Sunday

    Hartenstein (ankle) exited Sunday's 129-104 win over the 76ers in the third quarter and did not return.

    Hartenstein appeared to turn his right ankle and limped to the locker room late in the third quarter. The big man finished with five points (2-6 FG, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block across 20 minutes. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Monday's matchup against the Hawks.

  • Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Heads to locker room Sunday

  • Zach Collins C | CHI

    Bulls' Zach Collins: Won't play Monday

    Collins has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Timberwolves due to right first toe soreness.

    Collins left Chicago's most recent game with an unspecified lower body injury, and it's now known he is dealing with a toe issue. His absence could mean more minutes for Jalen Smith and Patrick Williams. Collins' next chance to play will come Wednesday against New Orleans.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Grizzlies' Jock Landale: Officially out Sunday

    Landale (calf) is out for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

    Landale will miss a second straight contest due to a right calf injury. Christian Koloko will likely see a larger reserve role in Landale's absence.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Iffy for Monday

    Sengun (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers.

    Sengun is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to left calf tightness. If the star big man is ultimately ruled out, Steven Adams and Clint Capela are candidates for increased playing time. In nine appearances this month, Sengun has averaged 23.4 points, 9.9 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks in 34.7 minutes per game.
