Jordan will start in Sunday's game against the Rockets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

Aaron Gordon has been serving as the club's starting center due to Nikola Jokic (ankle) being sidelined, though Jordan will suit up for the first time since March 2, pushing Russell Westbrook to the bench. Jordan made two starts during January, accumulating 12 points, 17 rebounds, three blocks, three steals and two assists across 46 total minutes.

The Pacers signed Bradley on Sunday to a contract for the remainder of the season.

Bradley will stick with the Pacers for the rest of the 2024-25 campaign after signing two 10-day deals with the club earlier this month. The center has provided some emergency relief for the club, averaging 3.5 points and 2.0 rebounds across 6.0 minutes per contest in six appearances. However, Bradley has played double-digit minutes in only one game, and he'll likely continue to serve as a fringe rotation player.

Boucher has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Spurs due to an illness, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Boucher wasn't included on the Raptors' initial injury report for Sunday's contest, but he may have fallen ill overnight or earlier in the morning. The big man hasn't been part of the rotation since Feb. 26, so his absence won't open up minutes for other players.

Biyombo will start in Sunday's game against Toronto, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The veteran center will return to the starting five after receiving a DNP due to a coach's decision in Friday's win over the 76ers. He'll push Jeremy Sochan to the second unit. Over his last five outings (four starts), Biyombo has averaged 2.8 points and 3.6 rebounds across 16.0 minutes per contest.

Castleton will start Sunday's game against the Spurs, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

With Jakob Poeltl and Immanuel Quickley resting, Castleton and Jamal Shead will slide into the starting lineup. As a starter this season (three games), Castleton has averaged 10.0 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in 31.3 minutes per game.

Porzingis (illness) won't play Sunday against the Trail Blazers, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Porzingis will take a seat for the first half of a back-to-back set due to an illness and should be considered questionable for Monday. After missing eight straight games to start March, Porzingis appeared in three consecutive contests and looked sharp, averaging 25.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.7 steals in 28.7 minutes while starting in each. In his absence, Luke Kornet is a candidate for increased playing time against Portland.

Davis (adductor) is listed doubtful for Monday's game against the Nets.

Even with the Mavericks' hopes of making a deep run in the playoffs having taken a significant hit in the wake of Kyrie Irving's season-ending knee injury, Davis will try to suit up down the stretch. He hasn't played since Feb. 8 due to a left adductor strain but went through multiple 5-on-5 practices in the G League recently and may take the floor during Dallas' four-game road trip that begins Monday. Following Monday's game, Dallas plays in New York on Tuesday, in Orlando on Thursday and in Chicago on Saturday.

Clingan (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Clingan will return to action Sunday after missing Friday's upset win over the Nuggets due to an illness. With Deandre Ayton (calf) and Robert Williams (knee) sidelined, Clingan has started his last 16 games, averaging 8.0 points, 10.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, 1.8 assists and 0.5 steals in 24.3 minutes per game.

Adebayo (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Adebayo and Tyler Herro (hip) have been upgraded from questionable to available. Adebayo hasn't missed a game since Feb. 13. Over his last four appearances, the big man has averaged 19.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.8 steals in 34.5 minutes per game.

Holmgren is questionable to suit up for Sunday's game against the Clippers due to a left hip strain, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Holmgren was a late addition to the injury report due to the left hip strain. The 22-year-old has made seven appearances in March, during which he has averaged 15.0 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.7 assists across 29.3 minutes per game. If Holmgren is sidelined Sunday, Kenrich Williams and Jaylin Williams are candidates for an increased role.
