  • Jazz's Brice Sensabaugh: Starting Monday

    Sensabaugh will start Monday's game against the Warriors.

    With Ace Bailey (illness) sidelined and Oscar Tshiebwe moving to the second unit, John Konchar and Sensabaugh will enter the starting five. As a starter this season (10 games), the 22-year-old forward has averaged 14.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 30.5 minutes per game.

    Jazz's John Konchar: Running with starters

    Konchar is starting Monday's game against the Warriors.

    Konchar will join the first unit Monday with Ace Bailey (illness) listed out. Konchar failed to score in 37 minutes during his last start Thursday against Washington, but he managed to contribute elsewhere by racking up five rebounds, four assists, five steals and one block.

  • Pat Spencer PG | GS

    Warriors' Pat Spencer: Not starting Monday

    Spencer is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Jazz, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Spencer started Sunday's contest with De'Anthony Melton sidelined due to a knee injury but will return to a reserve role Monday. In 35 games off the bench this season, Spencer is averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 assists and 1.8 rebounds in 13.1 minutes per contest, though he has logged 20-plus minutes in 11 of his past 13 appearances.

  • Warriors' Quinten Post: Starting Monday

    Post will start Monday's game against the Jazz, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    After going unused off the bench in Saturday's loss to Oklahoma City, Post will step into the starting five Monday for the first time since Jan. 26. As a starter this season (32 games), the big man has averaged 9.1 points and 4.4 rebounds in 20.0 minutes per tilt.

  • John Collins PF | LAC

    Clippers' John Collins: Slated to miss one week

    Collins resumed taking part in on-court work Monday but is expected to miss the next week of action while he recovers from a neck strain, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Collins is trending in the right direction, but he doesn't look like he'll be ready to play at any point during the Clippers' upcoming four-game week. The veteran big man has been out since exiting a March 1 game against the Warriors due to lingering neck soreness, which has now been classified as a strain. Kobe Sanders could continue to remain a regular part of the LA rotation for the duration of Collins' absence.

  • T.J. McConnell PG | IND

    Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Ruled out for Tuesday

    McConnell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

    The veteran point guard exited Sunday's loss to Portland in the fourth quarter due to right hamstring soreness and will miss Tuesday's contest with the same issue. His next opportunity to play will come Thursday against Phoenix. With McConnell out and Andrew Nembhard (neck/back) doubtful to play, Kam Jones, Quenton Jackson and Ben Sheppard are all in line to see increased playing time.

  • Jarace Walker PF | IND

    Pacers' Jarace Walker: Probable for Tuesday

    Walker is probable for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to a right ankle sprain and mid-back soreness.

    Walker tallied 14 points during Sunday's matchup against Portand but evidently emerged from the game a bit banged up. Even so, he appears on track to play Tuesday in Sacramento.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Won't play Tuesday

    Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

    Zubac has yet to make his Pacers debut due to a sprained left ankle and remains without a definitive timetable for a return. He should be considered doubtful for future contests until Indiana offers an update on his progress.

  • Liam McNeeley SF | CHA

    Hornets' Liam McNeeley: Won't play Tuesday

    McNeeley (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Portland.

    McNeeley, who was recalled from the G League on Monday, will be unavailable for Tuesday's contest due to a left ankle sprain. The rookie's next chance to play will come Wednesday against Sacramento in the second half of Charlotte's back-to-back, though playing time isn't guaranteed even when he's healthy.

  • Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Unlikely to play Tuesday

    Nembhard is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to lower back and neck soreness.

    Nembhard was cleared to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Blazers, but he's on track to get a rest day Tuesday evening. Kam Jones and Quenton Jackson would be in line for a start at point guard, assuming Nembhard is downgraded to out closer to tipoff.
