Thompson amassed 12 points (5-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 loss to the Clippers.

Thompson continues to enjoy a productive third season with the Rockets. The versatile forward has averaged 14.1 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.7 steals in 37.2 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, shooting 45.7 percent from the floor.

Moody registered 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 126-113 loss to San Antonio.

Moody's shot was dialed in during the loss, but the starting lineup failed to produce what was needed down the stretch against the Spurs. Moody's role has been relatively steady since Jimmy Butler's (knee) season-ending injury, and the 6-foot-5 fifth-year pro possesses much-needed versatility that can fill gaps at a few different positions. Although his scoring isn't always prolific, he's registered single digits only once over the past 15 contests.

Rollins (foot) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Rollins remains day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set Wednesday against the Magic. If Rollins is unable to play, the Bucks will likely lean heavily on Cam Thomas again.

Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson said Wednesday that Mobley (calf) should return to action "right after the All-Star break," Danny Cunningham of Sports Radio 92.3 The Fan Cleveland reports.

Mobley has missed the Cavaliers' last seven games after he strained his left calf in the team's Jan. 26 win over the Magic. The fifth-year big man -- who previously missed five games in December after suffering a Grade 1 strain of the same calf -- is seemingly making good progress in his recovery following his latest setback. If he's able to resume practicing following the break, he could be ready to play in the Cavaliers' first game of the second half Feb. 19 versus the Nets. Mobley's impending return could result in Thomas Bryant falling out of the rotation along with Jarrett Allen, Jaylon Tyson and Keon Ellis seeing at least slight reductions in playing time.

Kuzma is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder with left foot soreness.

Kuzma is in danger of missing Milwaukee's final contest before the All-Star break. His potential absence Thursday would free up significant playing time for Bobby Portis and Ousmane Dieng to help soak up at power forward.

Melton provided 17 points (6-7 FG, 5-6 3Pt), three rebounds and seven assists over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 126-113 loss to the Spurs.

Melton has come in handy during Stephen Curry's (knee) absence. Pat Spencer and Brandin Podziemski have lacked the consistency needed to address the gap, which has thrust Melton into a more prominent role. The roster was trimmed after the Buddy Hield/Jonathan Kuminga trade, and it's likely that Melton's role won't be affected much when Curry returns.

Johnson logged 21 points (8-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 126-113 victory over Golden State.

Johnson hasn't been especially consistent this season, but he tends to fare much better when Devin Vassell is out or struggling in his starting role. Such was the case during Wednesday's contest, where Devin Vassell managed only eight points in 28 minutes.

Henderson registered 18 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 loss to the Timberwolves.

Making just his third appearance of the season, Henderson delivered an efficient scoring performance off the bench. Given how much time he missed while recovering from a torn left hamstring earlier this season, Henderson is expected to have his minutes monitored carefully over the next several games, and he'll likely end up sitting out Thursday in Utah for the second leg of a back-to-back set. Even if the Portland coaching staff loosens the reins on Henderson following the All-Star break, he may not necessarily his minutes climb in a major way so long as the Trail Blazers have Jrue Holiday and Shaedon Sharpe (calf) available out of the backcourt.

Prosper accumulated 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Wednesday's 122-116 loss to the Nuggets.

The Nuggets will face a tough decision regarding Prosper, as he is available for only 12 more games under his current contract. The team may take their chances and use that allotment until Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is back, or they could send Prosper back to the G League to save him for the final month. Due to the uncertainty surrounding his nightly status, he's a risky fantasy prospect.

Krejci registered 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 loss to the Timberwolves.

Krejci put in his best scoring effort since joining Portland, scoring 17 points off the bench. It's his most points scored in a game dating back to Dec. 29th, when he scored 18 as a member of the Hawks. He's seeing 21.2 minutes per game with the Trail Blazers and has one more chance to make an impression before the All-Star break.
