Grant (calf) is available for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Suns, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Grant will shed his questionable tag and return from a seven-game stint on the sidelines due to a right calf strain to close out the regular season. The veteran forward's return will leave fewer minutes available for reserve players such as Kris Murray and Matisse Thybulle.

Adebayo is questionable to return to Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Hornets due to a lower-back injury.

Adebayo took a hard fall early in the second quarter and is in jeopardy of missing the remainder of the contest. Kel'el Ware should help pick up the slack while Adebayo is on the sideline.

Green (back) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Clippers.

Green took a seat for Sunday's regular-season finale -- a loss to the Clippers -- but will return to action for Wednesday's win-or-go-home matchup. The veteran big man averaged 6.5 points, 6.8 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 27.2 minutes per contest over his final six regular-season games.

Adebayo exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Hornets due to an apparent back injury, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Adebayo took a hard fall on his backside and walked gingerly to the locker room early in the second quarter. The star big man can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light.

Post (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Clippers.

Post will miss an eighth consecutive contest due to a right foot injury. However, his absence shouldn't affect the rotation with Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford and Draymond Green all healthy.

Leonard (ankle) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Leonard was held out of Sunday's regular-season finale -- a win over the Warriors -- but will return to action for Wednesday's win-or-go-home matchup. The star forward averaged 25.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 31.8 minutes per contest over five regular-season appearances in April.

Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Jackson missed the Clippers' final eight regular-season games due to a right ankle sprain, though he could return for Wednesday's win-or-go-home matchup. If the big man remains sidelined, John Collins and Brook Lopez would be candidates for increased playing time.

Watford (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Magic.

Watford is under the weather but appears likely to suit up for Wednesday's contest. However, he totaled just 15 minutes over three regular-season appearances in April, so he isn't guaranteed to see significant playing time.

Broome is out for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Hornets due to right knee surgery recovery.

The rookie second-rounder underwent surgery in February to repair a torn meniscus, and he remains in recovery mode. Broome has no timetable for a return and can be deemed doubtful for future contests, barring an update from the 76ers to suggest otherwise.

Isaac (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the 76ers.

The oft-injured Isaac last appeared back on March 12, but he'll have an opportunity to overcome a left knee sprain and get back onto the court Wednesday. Isaac would likely have a minutes restriction if he's upgraded to available, which means Jamal Cain should remain at least somewhat involved off the bench in any event.
