Grizzlies' Taylor Hendricks: Downgraded to questionable
Hendricks is questionable for Wednesday's game against Portland with an illness.
Hendricks was a late addition to the Grizzlies' injury report. With Santi Aldama (knee) out, Olivier-Maxence Prosper and GG Jackson would likely see heavy minutes in the frontcourt Thursday if Hendricks is unable to play.

Timberwolves' Joe Ingles: Out for personal reasons
Ingles is out for Thursday's game against Toronto for personal reasons.
Ingles is averaging 4.0 minutes per game over 20 regular-season appearances, so his absence will have a negligible impact on the Minnesota rotation. His next chance to rejoin the team comes Saturday against the Magic.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Remains out for Thursday
Sarr (hamstring) is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Sarr hasn't taken the court since Feb. 8 due to a right hamstring strain, and the last report Feb. 26 was that he was considered week-to-week. For now, consider him doubtful for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

Raptors' Brandon Ingram: Questionable with thumb sprain
Ingram is questionable for Thursday's game against Minnesota with a left thumb sprain.
It's a new injury for the star forward, who hasn't missed a game since Jan. 11. Jamal Shead and Ja'Kobe Walter stand out as the most likely choices to join the starting lineup in the event that Ingram is unable to suit up Thursday.

Simone Fontecchio SF | MIA
Heat's Simone Fontecchio: Out with groin issue
Fontecchio has a left groin strain and will not play Thursday against the Nets.
This is a new issue for Fontecchio for the front end of this back-to-back set. With this news, the Heat could rely more on Pelle Larsson and Kel'el Ware.

Nikola Jovic PF | MIA
Heat's Nikola Jovic: Another absence coming
Jovic (back) is out for Thursday's game against the Nets.
Jovic will be sidelined for a sixth straight game Thursday and remains without a timetable for a return. Pelle Larsson and Kel'el Ware could be more involved with this news.

Kyshawn George SF | WAS
Wizards' Kyshawn George: Ruled out for Thursday
George (elbow) is out for Thursday's game against Utah.
A sprained left elbow is resulting in a second consecutive absence for George. Will Riley should draw his fifth career start at small forward Thursday, making him a worthwhile streaming option in most fantasy formats.
