Poeltl (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Zulfi Sheikh reports.

Poeltl will now miss his second consecutive contest due to left shoulder bursitis. Collin Murray-Boyles and Trayce Jackson-Davis both stand to see increased playing time, with the latter the top candidate to earn a second straight start.

Robinson (thumb) is probable to return to Monday's game against the Rockets, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Robinson exited Monday's contest in the first quarter with a left thumb sprain. However, the big man is expected to check back in.

Poeltl (shoulder) is doubtful to play in Monday's game against the Clippers.

Poeltl was questionable to suit up after missing Sunday's 131-125 loss to the Lakers, but he's been downgraded to doubtful prior to tipoff. If he remains out for the second straight contest, Collin Murray-Boyles and Trayce Jackson-Davis would earn more opportunities.

Robinson (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the first quarter of Monday's game against the Rockets, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.

It's unclear exactly why Robinson headed back to the locker room, though he can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. If he's unable to return, Luka Garza would likely see increased burn.

Robinson (rest) won't start Monday's game against the Rockets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

After sitting out Sunday's 108-97 win over Orlando to rest, Robinson will play and come off the bench for the first time in 2026-27. Neemias Queta will get a second consecutive start, while Luka Garza will likely see his minutes reduced substantially.

Beringer will not start Monday's game against the Bucks.

As expected, with Rudy Gobert (back) returning to the lineup Monday, Beringer will shift back to the bench.

The Bucks exercised their fourth-year team option on Ware's contract Monday.

Ware is now officially under contract for the 2027-28 campaign after being traded to Milwaukee this past offseason. The big man has played a relatively steady role off the Bucks' bench to begin the 2026-27 season, averaging 13.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.4 combined steals-plus-blocks and 0.8 assists in 19.7 minutes per game across six appearances.

Bona won't start Monday's game against the Bulls, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

With Joel Embiid (foot) back in the lineup, Bona will slide to the second unit. In six appearances off the bench this season, the big man has averaged 1.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 12.8 minutes per contest.

Post (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

Post is set for a second consecutive absence while tending to a right ankle sprain. His next chance to return will arrive Wednesday against the Pacers.

Ayton will start in Monday's game against the Magic.

With Alex Sarr (knee) sidelined, Ayton will slide into the starting center role. Bilal Coulibaly and Khris Middleton could see a bump in minutes off the Wizards' bench.
