Sensabaugh (rest) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game in Denver, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Sensabaugh is set to return from a rest day, which could translate to fewer minutes for John Konchar and Bez Mbeng. Through 10 games in March, Sensabaugh has averaged 21.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.9 triples and 1.0 steals per game on 47/37/85 shooting splits.

Filipowski (illness) is probable for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Filipowski was unable to suit up Wednesday due to an illness, but his availability looks more promising for Friday. He'd be in line to start at center assuming he gains clearance prior to tipoff.

George (hamstring) is out for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

George is slated for another absence while rehabbing from a right hamstring strain. The Jazz have yet to provide an update on his injury, so he can be considered doubtful for Saturday's game in Phoenix until further notice.

The Lakers assigned Knecht to the G League's South Bay Lakers on Thursday, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.

Knecht hasn't seen much run with the Lakers lately, so he'll get an opportunity to suit up for Thursday's clash against Sioux Falls. The club could also recall him in time to join LA for Friday's game against Brooklyn.

The Lakers assigned James to the G League's South Bay Lakers on Thursday, Trevor Lane of LakersNation.com reports.

James will presumably be available to play in Thursday's G League matchup against Sioux Falls. The Lakers may also elect to bring him back in time to be with the team for Friday's matchup against Brooklyn.

Correcting a previous report, Robinson (hip/wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

Robinson was initially listed in the starting lineup, but the team released a new lineup card shortly after that listed Robinson as out for Thursday's contest. Kevin Huerter will draw the start on the wing with Robinson sidelined.

Huerter will start Thursday versus the Pelicans.

Huerter is getting the spot-start with Duncan Robinson (hip) out, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Ausar Thompson, Tobias Harris, Daniss Jenkins and Jalen Duren. As a starter this season, Huerter has averaged 11.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 triples per contest.

Gordon (hamstring) is available for Friday's game against the Jazz.

Gordon was held out of a back-to-back Wednesday against Dallas, but he'll be available to suit up Friday night. The Arizona product is averaging 16.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists in his previous five matchups.

Robinson (wrist/hip) is available and listed in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

The Pistons downgraded Robinson to questionable shortly before tipoff, but the sharpshooter will ultimately gain clearance to play for the second leg of a back-to-back set. Robinson has averaged 10.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.7 three-pointers in 27.7 minutes per contest in his last six games.

Baldwin will come off the bench Thursday night against Orlando, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

Baldwin drew his first start of the season Tuesday against Charlotte and logged a season-high 28 minutes. However, he'll shift to the bench for Thursday's action with Precious Achiuwa returning to the court.
