Miller contributed 24 points (8-18 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block over 36 minutes during Monday's 110-104 loss to the Pistons.

Miller led the Hornets in scoring, though it wasn't enough to secure a home win. The Alabama product has now knocked down at least one three-pointer in 31 consecutive appearances and has hit multiple triples in 13 of the past 14 contests. While his efficiency can swing night to night, there's no questioning that Miller is a legitimate marksman and a constant threat from beyond the arc.

Traore produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 13 assists, three rebounds, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 123-115 victory over Chicago.

Traore scored in double figures for a third straight game Monday, but his more impressive achievement came in the assist column. He set a season high with 13 assists, resulting in the first double-double of his young NBA career. Traore has stepped up as a facilitator of late, as he's averaging 5.7 assists in his last seven appearances after dishing out 2.7 assists per game in his first 23 outings of the year.

Cunningham amassed 33 points (12-27 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 110-104 win over the Hornets.

Cunningham carried the load Monday with a big performance, leading all scorers and flirting with a triple-double in a Pistons win. The star guard's 27 shot attempts marked his highest total since Dec. 18, when he put up 30 against the Mavericks. Through 46 games this season, Cunningham has reached the 30-point mark 11 times.

Raynaud produced 21 points (8-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 19 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 120-94 loss to the Pelicans.

Raynaud was one of the lone bright spots for the Kings in a blowout loss, as he posted his best scoring night since Dec. 18 while logging just his second double-double since Jan. 1. The big man took full advantage of the absence of Domantas Sabonis (back), with Raynaud's 38 minutes being a career high. He's been heavily involved recently even when Sabonis has been on the court, so look for Sacramento to continue prioritizing the young center's development heading into the All-Star break and beyond.

Thomas finished with four points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist in 13 minutes during Monday's 118-99 loss to the Magic.

Thomas inked a deal with the Bucks on Sunday after being cut loose by the Nets, and he was cleared for his Milwaukee debut Monday. He scored all four points in the final period, though he was otherwise ineffective in limited chances. Thomas could see more opportunities to make an impact Wednesday as he eases into a new system.

Gueye was ejected during the fourth quarter of Monday's game against Minnesota, Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune reports. He'll exit with 10 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and seven rebounds over 20 minutes.

Gueye's productive night off the bench came to an abrupt end after he and Naz Reid were involved in a heated scuffle at the 11:52 mark of the fourth quarter, resulting in both players being ejected. Onyeka Okongwu, Jock Landale and Asa Newell will handle the post minutes the rest of the way Monday.

Reid was ejected from Monday's game against the Hawks after being assessed a double technical foul, Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune reports. He registered seven points (3-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block in 21 minutes prior to departing.

Reid and Mouhamed Gueye got involved in a skirmish to start the fourth quarter, and the officiating crew made the decision to toss both involved parties. Julian Phillips could pick up some extra minutes down the stretch with Reid unavailable.

Caldwell-Pope is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Warriors, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Caldwell-Pope made a spot start Saturday and finished with 11 points, but he'll revert to a reserve role Monday. The veteran has primarily worked off the bench this season, averaging 8.3 points, 2.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 20.1 minutes per contest across 35 reserve appearances.

Mashack will be deployed off the bench Monday night against Golden State, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Mashack drew his first start of the season Saturday while the Grizzlies were severely shorthanded, but he'll bump back to a bench role Monday. The Tennessee product hasn't had much involvement when Memphis is healthy, as he's averaging 2.1 points, 1.1 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 9.8 minutes per game across 10 outings this season.

Hayes isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Oklahoma City, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

Hayes drew a rare start Saturday with Deandre Ayton (knee) sidelined, but Ayton is back in with the first unit Monday evening. Hayes is averaging 6.9 points and 3.5 rebounds in 15 bench appearances since Jan. 1.
