Williams will start Tuesday's game against the Hornets, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

After going unused off the bench in Sunday's win over Sacramento, Williams will return to the first unit Tuesday. As a starter this season (12 games), the 24-year-old forward has averaged 13.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.4 steals and 1.1 assists in 24.3 minutes per tilt.

LeVert (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

LeVert will shed his questionable tag and suit up in both halves of this back-to-back set after contributing 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block across 26 minutes in Monday's overtime loss to the Thunder. The veteran guard has averaged 7.0 points, 3.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 blocks across 19.8 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Robinson (hip) will play Tuesday against the Raptors.

Robinson was initially added to the injury report with a probable designation and has since been cleared to take the court Tuesday. He sat out Monday while dealing with a hip injury but is expected to be a full go versus Toronto.

Harris (hip) has been cleared to play Tuesday against the Raptors.

Harris was tagged as probable leading up to tipoff, so his availability isn't much of a surprise. He'll return to the court following a one-game absence due to a hip issue.

Duren (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

Duren sat out Monday's overtime loss to the Thunder due to right knee injury management, though he'll return to action in the second leg of this back-to-back set. The star big man has recorded nine double-doubles over his last 10 appearances, averaging 23.3 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.5 combined steals-plus-blocks in 29.2 minutes per contest during that span.

Ingram (heel) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday's game in Detroit.

Ingram was on track to play in Sunday's 139-87 win over the Magic, although he was ruled out shortly before the opening tip. If the 28-year-old officially gets the green light to suit up, Ja'Kobe Walter or Jamal Shead will likely head back to the bench.

Murray-Boyles (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.

Murray-Boyles was initially added to the injury report as questionable due to lower-back spasms, but it seems he'll be available to run the floor Tuesday. Expect confirmation on his status closer to tipoff.

Gordon (calf) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game in Utah.

Gordon has appeared in only one of Denver's last three games, most recently missing Sunday's 116-93 win over Golden State. He practiced in full Tuesday, so he is on track to suit up. If that's the case, Peyton Watson will likely head back to the bench.

Jones (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

Jones exited Sunday's game against the Warriors with a right hamstring injury, and the issue is significant enough to keep him out of Wednesday's action. Peyton Watson, Julian Strawther and Tim Hardaway could see more opportunities in Jones' absence.

Johnson (back) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

Johnson exited Sunday's win over the Warriors in the third quarter due to back spasms and did not return. However, he practiced Tuesday and is set to play Wednesday. Over his last five games, the 30-year-old forward has averaged 12.6 points, 2.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 27.0 minutes per contest.
