Zubac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Phoenix.

Zubac has a chance to make his Pacers debut Thursday, as he's listed as questionable on the injury report for the first time since Feb. 9. The center has been battling a sprained left ankle. If he's able to return, he'd likely have his minutes monitored. However, Zubac's availability would mean fewer opportunities for Jay Huff and Micah Potter.

Oubre is expected to miss at least two weeks due to a left elbow sprain, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Oubre missed nearly two months with a knee sprain earlier this season, and he's now set for his second extended absence of the year. Given the timeline for his return, the swingman could realistically be sidelined until April. With the 76ers riddled with injuries, Trendon Watford, Tyrese Martin and Justin Edwards could all compete for Oubre's vacated starting position.

Kuminga is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Nets due to a left knee bone bruise.

Kuminga has missed the past three games with what was initially termed left knee "inflammation," but now his injury has been upgraded to a "bone bruise," which is a bit more severe. We'll have a better idea on Kuminga's status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if he's forced to spend another game on the sidelines, Corey Kispert and Zaccharie Risacher will continue to absorb his minutes.

Daniels is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Brooklyn due to a left great toe sprain.

Daniels is at risk of missing Thursday's contest due to a sprained toe. The 22-year-old wing is averaging 13.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 2.4 steals over his last five appearances. If he can't suit up Thursday, Zaccharie Risacher would likely enter the starting lineup.

Jovic (back) is out for Thursday's game versus the Bucks.

Jovic continues to get ruled out a day in advance of tipoff, suggesting he's still not close to returning. With no timetable or updates on his progress from the Heat, Jovic should be considered week-to-week.

Young (knee) is good to go for Thursday's game against the Magic.

After getting a maintenance day Tuesday against the Heat, Young will be back in action Thursday. He's averaging just 18.5 minutes across two appearances for the Wizards thus far, so his upside is limited.

Ware is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bucks due to right shoulder strain.

Ware is trying to keep his absence to a one-game minimum Thursday. Simone Fontecchio would likely see a bump in playing time in the event that Ware isn't cleared for action.

Sims (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Heat.

Sims remains day-to-day after missing Tuesday's game against the Suns. If he's unable to give it a go, the Bucks will likely utilize Pete Nance and Kyle Kuzma a bit more.

Wiggins (toe) is out for Thursday's game against the Bucks.

Thursday marks a fourth consecutive absence for Wiggins, whose next chance to return from a left toe injury arrives Saturday versus the Magic. Myron Gardner is set to continue to start at power forward in his place and should see minutes around the 20s against Milwaukee.

Herro is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bucks due to left quadriceps soreness.

Herro could test out the issue during Thursday's pregame warmups before the Heat reach a decision on the star guard's status. If he cannot suit up, Davion Mitchell and Pelle Larsson would both be worthy of streaming attention in most fantasy leagues.
