Norman Powell SG | MIA
Heat's Norman Powell: Won't go Tuesday
Powell (personal) is out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks.
As anticipated, Powell will miss a third consecutive matchup while attending to a personal matter. His next chance to return to the hardwood will arrive Friday in Boston.

Micah Potter PF | IND
Pacers' Micah Potter: Won't go Tuesday
Potter (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Potter will miss the second leg of this back-to-back set due to a left hip contusion, and his next opportunity to play will come Friday versus Milwaukee. With the Pacers extremely shorthanded Tuesday, Jay Huff, Jarace Walker and Johnny Furphy are candidates to see increased playing time due to Potter being sidelined.

Kevin Love PF | UTA
Jazz's Kevin Love: Officially out
Love (illness) is out for Tuesday's game against the Pacers.
Love was added to the injury report as doubtful due to an illness, and he's since been downgraded to out. Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh could pick up a few additional minutes in the frontcourt in Love's absence.

Jeremy Sochan SF | NY
Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Ruled out for Wednesday
Sochan (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.
Sochan will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to a left quadriceps strain. The fourth-year forward's absence shouldn't affect the San Antonio rotation, though his next opportunity to suit up will come Thursday against the Mavericks.

Lindy Waters III SF | SA
Spurs' Lindy Waters: Ruled out for Wednesday
Waters is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder with a left knee hyperextension.
Waters faces a short turnaround if he wants to be available for Thursday's tilt in Dallas. However, the forward has totaled a mere 14 minutes across his last four appearances, so Waters' absence doesn't appear to shake up the San Antonio frontcourt mix.

Andrew Wiggins SF | MIA
Heat's Andrew Wiggins: Listed as out Tuesday
Wiggins is out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks with left hamstring tightness.
After being a late addition to the injury report, Wiggins has been downgraded from questionable to out Tuesday. Friday's matchup in Boston marks the veteran forward's next chance to play. With Norman Powell (personal) doubtful, Nikola Jovic and Jaime Jaquez are both in line to handle an expanded role against Atlanta.

Julius Randle PF | MIN
Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Questionable for Wednesday
Randle (thumb) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.
Randle was also listed as questionable ahead of Monday's loss to Memphis due to left thumb soreness, though he was ultimately cleared to play. If he's unable to suit up Wednesday, Naz Reid would likely join the starting five, while Leonard Miller could enter the rotation.
-
Terrence Shannon Jr. SG | MIN
Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: Ruled out for Wednesday
Shannon (foot) is out for Wednesday's game against Toronto.
Shannon is still on the mend after suffering a left foot strain at the end of December. His next chance to suit up will arrive Friday against New Orleans.

Anthony Edwards SG | MIN
Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Game-time call for Wednesday
Edwards is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors due to left elbow soreness.
Edwards dropped 39 points in his last appearance Monday against the Grizzlies but evidently picked up a minor elbow injury along the way. The team should have a better idea of his availability closer to tipoff.
