Gibson (foot) is available for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Gibson was previously listed as questionable due to right foot soreness, but he will push through and suit up Monday. In four games with the Grizzlies this season, the veteran big man is averaging 3.3 points and 3.0 rebounds in 10.3 minutes per contest.

Spencer (back) is out for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Spencer has officially been downgraded to out due to back soreness. The Grizzlies will be awfully thin in the backcourt Monday with Spencer, Cedric Coward (personal), Javon Small (back) and Jahmai Mashack (ankle) all unavailable. It'll presumably be up to Rayan Rupert, DeJon Jarreau and Walter Clayton to pick up the slack.

Barnes is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Heat.

With Devin Vassell (hamstring) back in the fold Monday, Barnes is reverting to his typical spot on the bench. Barnes has averaged 6.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.9 steals in 19.4 minutes per contest across his last seven games off the bench.

Wallace won't start Monday's game against the 76ers, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.

With Jalen Williams (hamstring) back in the starting five following a 16-game absence, Wallace will slide to the second unit. Over 12 appearances off the bench this season, the Kentucky product has averaged 5.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.6 assists in 24.6 minutes per contest.

Williams (hamstring) is listed in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Philadelphia, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.

Williams initially appeared set to come off the bench in his return from a 16-game absence due to a right hamstring strain, but Rahbar relays that the Thunder had a transcription error in their announced starting lineup. The 24-year-old will in fact return to his usual starting slot at small forward, though he's expected to operate with a minutes restriction in his first game since Feb. 11.

Jackson is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Orlando, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.

Jackson drew a spot start Saturday as Indiana opened with a smaller lineup. However, he will retreat to the bench Monday as the team rolls out a starting five of Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Jarace Walker, Pascal Siakam and Jay Huff. Over his past five appearances, Jackson is averaging 7.0 points, 4.0 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per contest.

Harper won't start Monday's game against the Heat.

The rookie first-rounder will slide to the second unit due to Stephon Castle returning from a two-game absence with a hip issue. Harper has averaged 12.2 points, 5.2 assists and 4.2 rebounds in 24.4 minutes per game over his last five appearances off the bench.

Small (back) is out for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Small was added to the injury report earlier Monday due to lower-back soreness, and the team has determined that he won't be able to suit up. Cedric Coward (personal), Jahmai Mashack (ankle) and Cam Spencer (back) are also out, which should leave plenty of opportunity for Rayan Rupert, DeJon Jarreau and Walter Clayton in the backcourt.

Huff is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Magic, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.

The Pacers are deploying a bigger opening group Monday, sending Quenton Jackson to the bench in favor of Huff. Over his last eight appearances as a starter, Huff has averaged 12.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers in 27.3 minutes per game.

Beauchamp is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Thunder, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.

Beauchamp will make his first start of the season with Quentin Grimes (illness) inactive for Monday's matchup. In nine games with the 76ers this season, Beauchamp is averaging 8.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 16.4 minutes per contest.
