  • Nicolas Batum PF | LAC

    Clippers' Nicolas Batum: Coming off bench

    Batum isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Batum will head back to the second unit after making a spot start Monday. The veteran forward is averaging 3.3 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 12.4 minutes over his last 10 appearances off the bench.

  • Ja'Kobe Walter SG | TOR

    Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Headed to bench

    Walter will come off the bench for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Walter will retreat to the second unit with Brandon Ingram (heel) back and starting. As a reserve this season, Walter owns averages of 6.7 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.3 triples and 1.0 steals per game.

  • Raptors' Sandro Mamukelashvili: Pushed back to bench

    Mamukelashvili will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Mamukelashvili made a spot start last time out, but now that Jakob Poeltl (back) is available, Mamukelashvili will come off the bench. The 26-year-old is averaging 9.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 19.9 minutes per game as a reserve this season.

  • Bulls' Guerschon Yabusele: Chips in 11 points off bench

    Yabusele posted 11 points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and four rebounds over 22 minutes during the Bulls' 157-137 loss to the 76ers on Wednesday.

    Yabusele was one of nine Bulls players to score in double digits, but the team was ineffective defensively in a blowout loss. The veteran big man could be in line for an expanded role in the coming days depending on the statuses of Jalen Smith (calf) and Nick Richards (elbow), both of whom left Wednesday's game due to injury. Yabusele started in 12 of 13 games from early February to mid-March, scoring in double digits in eight of those contests while recording two double-doubles and a near triple-double against the Pistons on Feb. 21.
