Dick will start Monday's game against the Raptors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Dick will get the nod at small forward due to Derrick Jones (knee) sitting out Monday. Dick got off to a strong start this season by dropping 12 points in the opener against the Kings, but he's been held to single digits in the scoring column in five games since.

Richard will start Monday's game against the Suns, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

Richard will earn his second start of the season with Gui Santos (knee) and Brandon Williams (quadriceps) both out versus Phoenix. Richard is averaging 4.4 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 16.6 minutes across seven regular-season outings in 2026-27.

Lopez will start Monday's game against the Raptors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

The veteran big man will draw his first start of the season in the second leg of this back-to-back set, pushing Isaiah Jackson to the second unit. Lopez is averaging 12.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks across 21.8 minutes per game through six regular-season outings thus far.

Niang won't start Monday's game against the Suns, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

Niang drew the start in the front end of this back-to-back set, though Draymond Green and Stephen Curry are back in action after getting the night off Sunday. Niang has averaged 7.0 points and 3.2 rebounds in 18.6 minutes per game across five appearances off the bench so far this season.

Jackson-Davis will not start Monday's game against the Clippers, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Jackson-Davis will slide back to the bench with Collin Murray-Boyles starting at center in place of the injured Jakob Poeltl (shoulder). Jackson-Davis played just nine minutes during Sunday's 131-125 loss and finished with five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and two steals.

Murray-Boyles will start Monday's game against Clippers, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Murray-Boyles will join the starting lineup due to the absence of Jakob Poeltl (shoulder). Trayce Jackson-Davis stepped in for a spot start in Poeltl's place Sunday, but it'll be Murray-Boyles who gets a chance to show what he can do Monday evening.

Williams won't start Monday's game against the Heat, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Williams is returning from a three-game absence due to a foot injury, though he'll slide to the second unit for the first time this season. Jake LaRavia will draw a fourth consecutive start.

Christie has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Kings due to a right hip injury, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports. He'll end the night with no points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in eight minutes.

The severity of Christie's injury is unclear at this time. He can be considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup in San Antonio until further notice.

Robinson (thumb) returned to Monday's game against the Rockets with 5:47 remaining in the second quarter, per the broadcast.

Robinson headed back to the locker room in the first quarter with a left thumb sprain. He returned to the bench shortly thereafter and appears to be good to go for the remainder of the contest.

Poeltl (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Zulfi Sheikh reports.

Poeltl will now miss his second consecutive contest due to left shoulder bursitis. Collin Murray-Boyles and Trayce Jackson-Davis both stand to see increased playing time, with the latter the top candidate to earn a second straight start.
