Westbrook (foot) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against San Antonio.

Westbrook didn't play Sunday against the Jazz due to right foot soreness, but he'll be back in action for Tuesday's tilt. The veteran guard is averaging 16.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 8.8 assists and 1.8 steals in six March appearances.

Carter (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Spurs.

Carter is sidelined for a fourth straight game with a calf contusion. His next chance to play comes Thursday against the 76ers.

Leons is coming off the bench Monday against the Wizards, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The Warriors are healthier Monday, pushing Leons to the bench. Leons has averaged 2.3 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 7.8 minutes per tilt over 13 games off the bench this season.

Porter (groin) will remain out for the next 1-to-3 weeks.

The Cavs noted Monday that Porter was sent for an MRI, which confirmed a left groin strain. He's started the treatment phase of his recovery and will miss at least his team's three-game road trip while on the mend.

Martin (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

Martin had been dealing with a finger issue recently, but he'll miss Monday's contest due to right plantar fascia soreness. His absence could open up additional opportunities off the bench for Khris Middleton. Martin's next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Hawks.

Allen (knee) will miss Cleveland's upcoming three-game road trip.

Allen has already been downgraded to out for Tuesday's game against Milwaukee, but the team has now ruled him out for two additional contests. He'll remain in Cleveland during the road trip to continue his treatment and rehabilitation.

Gafford (illness) won't play Monday night against New Orleans.

As expected, an illness will keep Gafford from suiting up Monday evening. Marvin Bagley is one candidate to see more action in Gafford's absence, though Ryan Nembhard could also factor into the mix if the Mavs decide to deploy a smaller first unit, which they did during Gafford's absence Sunday in Cleveland.

Reese is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Warriors.

With Alex Sarr (hamstring) sidelined, Reese will slide into the starting five at center. This will mark his fourth start of the season, as he's averaged 9.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals across 33.0 minutes in his first three starts.

Thompson (rest) is out for Monday's game against New Orleans.

Thompson will get another night off after also sitting out of Sunday's matchup due to rest purposes. Khris Middleton and John Poulakidas are candidates to once again see an uptick in minutes with Thompson unavailable.

Porter (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Milwaukee.

Porter will miss a second straight game due to a left groin strain. In his absence, Keon Ellis and Dennis Schroder could see a slight uptick in minutes. Porter's next chance to play will come Thursday against Chicago.
