Clayton is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors due to a right calf contusion.

Clayton may have picked up the injury during Saturday's loss to the Trail Blazers, when he finished with eight points, seven assists, four rebounds and three steals over 28 minutes. If the rookie first-rounder is unable to play, then Javon Small and Jahmai Mashack would be in line for more minutes off the bench.

Pippen (toe) is off the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Warriors.

Pippen missed the second half of the team's back-to-back set Saturday as he returns to action following an extended absence due to a left great toe injury. He will return to the lineup Monday after recording 13 points, six assists, three rebounds and a steal in 22 minutes in his season debut Friday.

Aldama (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Warriors.

Aldama is set to miss a third consecutive game due to a right knee injury, and his last opportunity to play before the All-Star game is Wednesday against the Nuggets. Kyle Anderson and Olivier-Maxence Prosper figure to be the top candidates to start Monday in Aldama's absence.

Cryer (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

Cryer will miss a seventh straight game due to a left hamstring injury. His absence doesn't figure to impact the rotation.

Henderson (hamstring) is probable for Monday's game against the 76ers.

Henderson missed Saturday's game for injury management purposes as he is coming off an extended absence due to a hamstring issue, but he is likely to return to action Monday. Should he suit up, he figures to see plenty of usage considering the plethora of injuries the team is dealing with.

Mitchell (abdomen) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.

Mitchell is set to miss a ninth consecutive game while recovering from an abdominal strain. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Suns, though the second-year pro does not have a clear timeline for a return.

Williams (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the 76ers.

Williams could miss a second straight game due to a lingering knee injury. If he is unable to go, Yang Hansen could see extra minutes while backing up Donovan Clingan.

Embiid is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers due to right knee injury management, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Embiid has been a mainstay on the 76ers' injury report this season, and there's a chance he is sidelined for Monday's road tilt while managing a right knee injury. His absence would likely result in Andre Drummond entering the Sixers' starting five.

Avdija (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the 76ers.

Avdija could miss a fifth straight game due to a back injury. Jerami Grant and Sidy Cissoko figure to see larger roles if Avdija is unable to suit up.

Williams (hamstring) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Lakers, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.

Williams' absence from the injury report indicates that he will return Monday from a 10-game absence due to a right hamstring strain, which would bolster a Thunder team without their superstar point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (oblique). Williams' return would likely result in Aaron Wiggins or Isaiah Hartenstein moving to a bench role.
