Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Iffy for Wednesday
Leonard (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Leonard has been a mainstay on the injury report of late due to a left ankle sprain and could miss Wednesday's contest. If the star forward is ultimately ruled out, Jordan Miller (back), Bennedict Mathurin and Nicolas Batum would be candidates to see increased burn.

Collins (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Raptors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Jerami Grant PF | POR
Trail Blazers' Jerami Grant: Questionable to face Milwaukee
Grant (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Grant may miss a third straight game due to left foot soreness, which would leave more minutes available for guys like Sidy Cissoko and Kris Murray. Over his last five outings, Grant has averaged 15.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.6 minutes per contest.

Bucks' Bobby Portis: Picks up wrist injury

Portis had just put a rib injury behind him, but he's now dealing with a wrist issue that has him in danger of missing Wednesday's contest. Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) is also questionable, so the Bucks could be a bit thin in the frontcourt if one or both players are unable to go.

Gary Harris SG | MIL
Bucks' Gary Harris: Won't suit up Wednesday
Harris (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Harris will miss a third straight game due to a left groin contusion, and his next chance to play will come Saturday against San Antonio. Gary Trent will likely continue seeing a bump in minutes in Harris' absence.

Bucks' Kyle Kuzma: Iffy to face Portland
Kuzma (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Kuzma is in danger of missing a second straight game due to right Achilles soreness. If the veteran forward is unable to return Wednesday, Jericho Sims and Pete Nance would be candidates to see increased minutes.
