  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Questionable for Monday

    Williams (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Brooklyn.

    Williams returned from a one-game absence Sunday against the 76ers and finished with six points, 12 rebounds and three blocks in 20 minutes. He may be held out for injury maintenance Monday, and if that happens, Sidy Cissoko could become more involved for Portland.

  • Bulls' Lachlan Olbrich: Expected to play

    Olbrich (calf) is probable for Monday's game against Memphis.

    Olbrich is typically an emergency depth option for the Bulls with an average of 5.6 minutes over his last five appearances. Despite all of Chicago's injuries, Olbrich isn't guaranteed playing time Monday, even if he gets the green light.

  • Caleb Martin SF | DAL

    Mavericks' Caleb Martin: Questionable with new injury

    Martin is listed questionable for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to right plantar fascia soreness.

    Martin had been listed as probable heading into Sunday's matchup with the Cavaliers due to a finger injury, but he ended up suiting up and logged eight minutes in Dallas' 130-120 win. The veteran forward is now tending to a new health concern heading into the second leg of a back-to-back set, making his status worth monitoring leading up to the 8 p.m. ET tipoff.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Doubtful for Monday

    Gafford (illness) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

    After resting Friday against Cleveland, which was the second night of a back-to-back set, Gafford was expected to return to action for Sunday's rematch versus the Cavaliers, but he missed that contest due to an illness. The veteran center remains under the weather and is expected to miss the second half of Dallas' back-to-back set, which should allow Marvin Bagley to see an increased role. However, the Mavericks started a small lineup Sunday, with Cooper Flagg, Naji Marshall and P.J. Washington in the frontcourt.

  • Isaac Okoro SF | CHI

    Bulls' Isaac Okoro: Ruled out Monday

    Okoro (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    No surprise here, as Okoro was previously listed as doubtful. With Okoro sidelined for a fourth straight game, the Bulls will likely continue to lean on Leonard Miller.

  • Klay Thompson SG | DAL

    Mavericks' Klay Thompson: Unlikely to play Monday

    Thompson (rest) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

    After resting Sunday, the expectation was that Thompson would suit up Monday, but it looks like he's going to miss both halves of Dallas' back-to-back set. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against Atlanta.

  • Bulls' Nick Richards: Probable for Monday

    Richards has lower back tightness and is probable for Monday's game versus Memphis.

    Richards was a late addition to the injury report, but he intends to play through this minor setback. Over his last six games, he's averaging 11.0 points, 9.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 26.2 minutes per contest.

  • Ben Saraf PG | BKN

    Nets' Ben Saraf: Cleared to play

    Saraf (calf) is available to play Monday against Portland.

    Saraf will shake off a questionable tag for this contest. In his most recent outing Saturday against the 76ers, the rookie put up 12 points, five assists, four rebounds and two steals across 31 minutes. With Brooklyn shorthanded, Saraf should see 20-plus minutes again.

  • Justin Edwards SF | PHI

    76ers' Justin Edwards: Goes for 21 points Sunday

    Edwards racked up 21 points (9-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals over 25 minutes during Sunday's 109-103 win over the Trail Blazers.

    Edwards has started for the shorthanded 76ers in the past three games, scoring in double digits each time and surpassing the 15-point plateau in the last two. The former Kentucky standout is making the most of his expanded minutes, but his role is one to monitor closely as the team gets healthier. Still, it's worth noting that Edwards has posted double-digit points in four of his last five appearances, averaging 13.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game in that stretch.

  • Quentin Grimes SG | PHI

    76ers' Quentin Grimes: Scores season-high 31 points

    Grimes chipped in 31 points (11-22 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals over 40 minutes during Sunday's 109-103 victory over the Trail Blazers.

    The 76ers were without star players Tyrese Maxey (finger), Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension), but Grimes stepped up and not only carried Philadelphia to victory, but he posted a season-high mark in scoring. Grimes has scored 20-plus points in four of his last six appearances, a stretch in which he's averaging 23.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game.
