  • Collin Sexton SG | CHI

    Bulls' Collin Sexton: Out again Monday

    Sexton (leg) will sit out Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    This will be the fourth consecutive game on the inactive list for Sexton, and with Wednesday's contest being the first of a back-to-back set, he could be slated to spend at least one more game on the sidelines. Rob Dillingham will continue to pick up the slack in Sexton's absence.

  • Jalen Smith PF | CHI

    Bulls' Jalen Smith: Not listed on injury report

    Smith (calf) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Smith skipped Friday's loss to the Clippers, with that game falling as the second in a back-to-back set, but he'll be back in action with his usual workload Monday evening. With Smith back in the mix, Nick Richards will likely return to the second unit, where his minutes will dip.

  • Devin Carter SG | SAC

    Kings' Devin Carter: Out for Sunday

    Carter (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

    Carter will join Russell Westbrook (foot) and Malik Monk (ankle) on the inactive list for Sunday's game, leaving Killian Hayes as the only available point guard on the roster. Carter's next chance to play will come Tuesday against the Spurs.

  • Drew Eubanks C | SAC

    Kings' Drew Eubanks: Sitting Sunday

    Eubanks (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Utah.

    Eubanks will end up sitting for both games of the Kings' back-to-back weekend set due to a sore left thumb, and he'll look to progress enough in his recovery to return for Tuesday's game against the Spurs. Dylan Cardwell will serve as the Kings' top backup center behind starter Maxime Raynaud in Eubanks' absence.

  • Kings' Russell Westbrook: Ruled out for Sunday

    Westbrook won't play Sunday versus the Jazz due to right foot soreness.

    Westbrook will hit the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back set, but he should return for Tuesday's game with the Spurs. Killian Hayes should get all the run he can handle as the last true point guard standing on the Kings' roster for Sunday's game.

  • Malik Monk SG | SAC

    Kings' Malik Monk: Ruled out for Sunday

    Monk (ankle) won't play Sunday versus the Jazz.

    This will be Monk's third straight missed game, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Tuesday's tilt with the Spurs. Killian Hayes and Nique Clifford will continue to pick up the slack in Monk's absence.

  • Kobe Brown SF | IND

    Pacers' Kobe Brown: Headed to bench

    Brown will come off the bench for Sunday's game in Milwaukee, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Jalen Slawson will replace Brown in the first unit for Sunday's game. As a reserve this season, Brown owns averages of 4.4 points and 2.4 rebounds per game.

  • Jalen Slawson SF | IND

    Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Making first NBA start Sunday

    Slawson is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Bucks on Sunday, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Sunday will be Slawson's 15th regular-season appearance and first NBA start since entering the league in 2023. In his last outing against the Suns on Thursday, Slawson played 32 minutes and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block. He'll join T.J. McConnell, Andrew Nembhard, Jarace Walker and Ivica Zubac in the starting lineup.

  • T.J. McConnell PG | IND

    Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Starting Sunday

    McConnell is starting Sunday versus the Bucks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    This will be just the second start of the season for McConnell and it'll be Aaron Nesmith, Jarace Walker, Jalen Slawson and Ivica Zubac joining him in the first unit. In McConnell's previous start this season, he finished with nine points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and two turnovers in 15 minutes.

  • Jericho Sims C | MIL

    Bucks' Jericho Sims: Back to bench Sunday

    Sims is not in the Bucks' starting lineup against the Pacers on Sunday.

    Sims made his 10th start of the season in Saturday's 122-99 loss to the Hawks, when he played 25 minutes and finished with seven points (2-2 FG, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist. The fifth-year big man will come off the bench for Sunday's matinee due to the return of Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf).
