Hardy (rest) will not play Sunday against Miami.

Hardy, who was traded from Dallas to Washington on Wednesday, has yet to be cleared to make his Wizards debut. It remains to be seen what type of role he will play with his new squad.

Gill (hand) is questionable for Sunday's game against Miami.

Gill remains day-to-day with his hand injury. He managed to play through it Saturday against the Nets, finishing with nine points, five rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes.

Coulibaly (back) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Miami.

Coulibaly is still considered day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set Saturday against Brooklyn. If Coulibaly is unable to play, there could be more minutes available for the likes of Jamir Watkins, Justin Champagnie and Will Riley.

Hauser (back) will not play Sunday against the Knicks.

Hauser was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest. With the sharpshooter out of the mix, the Celtics could allot more minutes to Hugo Gonzalez, Baylor Scheierman and Jordan Walsh.

George (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against Miami.

George remains day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set Saturday against Brooklyn. Over his last six games, George has averaged 13.2 points, 4.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, 1.2 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers.

The Thunder assigned Topic (illness) to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Sunday.

Topic has been sidelined all season after undergoing testicular surgery in October and later being diagnosed with cancer, but he's made excellent progress in his recovery. Back on Dec. 31, his agent said in an interview with Andriana Rankovic of Sportal.blic.rs that the 20-year-old successfully completed chemotherapy, and Topic has seemingly responded well since ramping up his workouts over the ensuing weeks. Topic now appears poised to resume taking part in practices in the G League, and if all goes well, the young guard could be cleared to eventually play in games with the Blue and potentially the Thunder before the end of the season, per Clemente Almanza of USA Today. The No. 12 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Topic missed the entire 2024-25 season while recovering from a torn ACL, but he returned to action for the Salt Lake City and Las Vegas Summer Leagues and also appeared in one preseason game in October before his cancer diagnosis.

Sarr (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Miami.

Sarr remains day-to-day after missing the front end of this back-to-back set Saturday against Brooklyn. The Wizards could be very thin up front versus the Heat, as Tristan Vukcevic (knee) is also questionable.

Johnson (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against Miami.

Johnson will be sidelined for a sixth straight game and there's been no indication that he's close to a return. His next chance to play comes Wednesday against Cleveland.

Larsson (elbow) will not play Sunday against the Wizards.

Larsson was previously listed as doubtful, so it's not a surprise to see this news. He can be considered questionable for the second leg of this back-to-back set Monday against the Jazz.

Powell (hand) is probable for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

Powell was previously listed as questionable, but it sounds like he will push through his hand injury for the first leg of this back-to-back set. He's averaging 20.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists on 42.0 percent shooting over his last four games.
