  • Naji Marshall SG | DAL

    Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Dealing with illness

    Marshall (illness) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

    It looks like Marshall will be able to play through the illness Monday, but his status won't be officially known until closer to the 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff. He has started each of the Mavericks' last 10 games, and over that span, he has averaged 18.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.3 steals over 30.8 minutes per game.

  • Jarace Walker PF | IND

    Pacers' Jarace Walker: Unavailable versus Miami

    Walker (back) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Miami.

    Walker took a hard fall in Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers. Although he avoided a serious head injury, he won't be available Sunday due to a low back bruise. Without Walker on the floor, Kobe Brown and Jalen Slawson are candidates to see expanded roles.

  • Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Starting Sunday

    Henderson is in the Trail Blazers' starting lineup against the Wizards on Sunday, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    With Jerami Grant (calf) sidelined, Henderson will make his fourth start of the season Sunday (and third since March 4). Over his last five outings, Henderson has averaged 13.8 points, 3.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 threes and 2.2 steals over 24.2 minutes per contest.

  • Mavericks' Marvin Bagley: Questionable for Monday

    Bagley is questionable for Monday's matchup with Minnesota due to a left shoulder impingement.

    Monday's game will be the first of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be shocking to see Bagley get hit with a maintenance day. If he's ruled out, Dwight Powell will have the chance for some extra minutes.

  • Aaron Nesmith SF | IND

    Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Sidelined Sunday

    Nesmith (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Miami.

    Ben Sheppard, Jalen Slawson Quenton Jackson and Kobe Brown are among the players who could be in line for added minutes in the absence of Nesmith. For the time being, Nesmith should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game in Chicago.

  • Jalen Wilson SF | ATL

    Nets' Jalen Wilson: Not playing Sunday

    Wilson (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings.

    Wilson popped up on Sunday's injury report due to an illness, and he saw he status go from probable to questionable before eventually being scratched. Terance Mann and Ochai Agbaji are slated for more minutes due to Wilson's absence. Wilson's next chance to play is Tuesday against the Hornets.

  • Knicks' Ariel Hukporti: Returns to parent club

    The Knicks recalled Hukporti from the G League's Westchester Knicks on Saturday.

    Hukporti will be available for Sunday's game in Oklahoma City but isn't expected to be featured in the rotation. The second-year center suited up in Westchester's season finale Saturday, recording 32 points (13-23 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, five blocks, one assist and one steal across 38 minutes in a 123-121 win over the Windy City Bulls.

  • Pascal Siakam PF | IND

    Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Available to play Sunday

    Siakam (knee) is available for Sunday's game against Miami, according to Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star

    Siakam carried a questionable tag, but head coach Rick Carlisle stated the 31-year-old will be available. He's appeared in five consecutive contests since returning from a six-game stint on the shelf, most recently finishing with 11 points, six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 33 minutes in Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers.

  • T.J. McConnell PG | IND

    Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Available to play

    McConnell (hamstring) is available for Sunday's meeting with Miami, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    McConnell will power through the hamstring issue, and he should be available for his usual minutes in the teens off the Pacers' bench. McConnell is averaging 9.3 points, 5.1 assists and 1.0 steals per game this season.

  • Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Cleared to play Sunday

    Nembhard (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Heat, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Nembhard has been playing through a lower-back issue as of late, but the fourth-year point guard has been given the green light to play in Sunday's home tilt. Over his last four outings, Nembhard has averaged 16.3 points, 12.5 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 threes over 32.3 minutes per game.
