Jackson-Davis (finger) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, per Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca.

Jackson-Davis is looking to end a two-game absence with a dislocated finger. However, he may not see meaningful playing time even if he's available Wednesday.

Poeltl (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Poeltl remains day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. If Poeltl is unable to give it a go, Sandro Mamukelashvili is likely to see another sizable workload for the Raptors, as Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) remains sidelined.

Avdija had 22 points (8-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 103-101 loss to the Hornets.

Tuesday was the All-Star forward's second game back from an extended absence with lower-back injury management, so it was encouraging to see Avdija's workload climb back toward his season norm. Over his last 10 appearances, Avdija has averaged 17.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.3 minutes per game while shooting a pitiful 24.5 percent from downtown.

Konchar is out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to left calf soreness.

Wednesday is Konchar's first absence since Feb. 5. Friday's matchup in Portland marks his next chance to play. The likes of Brice Sensabaugh, Cody Williams and Elijah Harkless should see an uptick in playing time versus New York.

The Jazz signed Garcia to a 10-day contract Wednesday.

The undrafted rookie out of Texas A&M will get his first look at the NBA level after he has thus far spent his entire first season in the professional ranks in the G League. Over 35 games with the Mexico City Capitanes, Garcia averaged 10.9 points on 55.6 percent shooting from the field with 9.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 steals in 25.3 minutes per contest. With Utah having ruled out three big men for the season (Jusuf Nurkic, Walker Kessler and Jaren Jackson), Lauri Markkanen (hip) facing an uncertain timeline for a return and two-way player Blake Hinson having limited availability at the NBA level, Garcia could end up carving out a role in the Jazz frontcourt rotation.

Vukcevic logged three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across seven minutes during Tuesday's 150-129 loss to the Heat.

Vukcevic returned from a four-game absence and was deployed as the third-string center Tuesday. It's likely that he reclaims a bigger rotation spot moving forward, making him someone to monitor in deeper formats. However, as long as Alex Sarr (hamstring) is suiting up, Vukcevic will be limited to a bench role.

Plumlee finished with one rebound in one minute during Tuesday's 125-116 win over the Celtics.

This was Plumlee's debut for the Spurs, and as expected, he was utilized as an emergency depth option off the bench. There's no fantasy appeal here.

Goodwin amassed six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt), one rebound and two assists across 14 minutes during Tuesday's 129-114 win over the Bucks.

Goodwin wasn't able to do much damage in his return from a seven-game absence. The Suns are mostly healthy in the backcourt these days, so Goodwin is only worth monitoring in deeper formats for the time being.

Prince produced zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and three rebounds in 18 minutes during Tuesday's 129-114 loss to the Suns.

This was Prince's first action since he underwent surgery Nov. 13 to address a herniated disc in his neck, and he understandably had some rust. Prince does have a solid path to minutes in Milwaukee, making him worth monitoring in deeper leagues as he ramps up.

Richardson (back) is available to play Wednesday against the Cavaliers.

Richardson is all set to return from a two-game absence. He's been used sparingly in recent weeks, but there are more minutes available with Anthony Black (abdomen) on the shelf.
