Olbrich (foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

As expected, Olbrich will shed his probable tag and suit up in Chicago's regular-season finale. He started Friday's loss to the Magic and has logged double-digit minutes in six straight outings, averaging 5.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 19.0 minutes per tilt over this six-game stretch.

Horford will start Sunday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

Horford came off the bench during Friday's game against the Kings, but he will start Sunday. Over his last four completed starts, he has averaged 12.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.0 blocks in 30.8 minutes per contest.

Sexton (finger/elbow) is available for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

Sexton popped up on the injury report with a right finger injury and a left elbow contusion, though he'll shake off his probable tag and suit up in Chicago's regular-season finale. The 26-year-old guard has started four straight games for the shorthanded Bulls, during which he has averaged 18.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 3.3 steals in 30.5 minutes per game.

Williams (thumb) will play in Sunday's game against Dallas.

The thumb sprain isn't anything new, although it hasn't kept Williams off the floor. He got the start in Thursday's 119-108 win over Washington before moving back to the bench in Friday's 127-103 loss to Orlando. With one more game left on the schedule before Chicago calls it a season, Williams has the chance to put together a strong scoring effort versus a Mavericks squad that hasn't shined defensively throughout the campaign.

Gillespie (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Gillespie will be held out of Sunday's regular-season finale due to a right shoulder contusion. The 26-year-old guard delivered career highs in several categories and will finish the regular season with averages of 12.7 points, 4.6 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 28.5 minutes per game across 80 outings (58 starts). Jamaree Bouyea and Koby Brea will likely see increased playing time for the shorthanded Suns on Sunday.

Santos will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

Santos started each of his last six appearances, but he will shift to a reserve role Sunday. He should still be a key part of the rotation.

Green (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Oklahoma City, Steve McGehee of News 9 Oklahoma City reports.

Green will miss a second consecutive game before presumably returning for the Play-In Tournament. As a result, Jamaree Bouyea is in line for an enhanced role, potentially even entering the starting lineup.

Gafford (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bulls

Gafford will miss a fourth consecutive contest to end the season. The big man will finish the campaign with averages of 9.5 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 assists across 21.7 minutes per contest in 55 regular-season outings (44 starts). With Marvin Bagley (shoulder) and P.J. Washington (elbow) also ruled out, Moussa Cisse and Dwight Powell are expected to handle the center minutes.

Castle (foot) will play in Sunday's game against Denver, Raul Dominguez Jr. of the Associated Press reports.

Castle will suit up after missing San Antonio's previous two contests. The Spurs are locked into the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference, so there's a good chance Castle will see a reduced workload.

Williams (illness) is unavailable for Sunday's game against Chicago.

Williams will now miss a fourth consecutive contest, marking the end of a career-best 2025-26 campaign. Without the 26-year-old, extra minutes will presumably be absorbed by Ryan Nembhard and AJ Johnson. Williams started 15 of his 66 appearances, and overall he averaged 13.0 points, 3.9 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 22.2 minutes per game.
