Anthony Edwards SG | MIN
Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Questionable versus Hornets
Edwards (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte.
Edwards has appeared in only two of Minnesota's last nine contests. He was able to suit up for Friday's 115-103 loss to the 76ers, although he finished with only eight points, two rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block while making three of his 15 attempts from the field. With Jaden McDaniels (knee) already ruled out, Ayo Dosunmu and Mike Conley may both be in the starting lineup if Edwards doesn't play Sunday.

Nets' Noah Clowney: Questionable for Sunday

If Clowney needs to skip Sunday's game, there will be more minutes available for Josh Minott and Jalen Wilson. Check back closer to Sunday's tipoff for official confirmation on Clowney's status.

Austin Reaves SG | LAL
Lakers' Austin Reaves: Will miss rest of regular season
Reaves (oblique) will miss the rest of the 2025-26 regular season and is expected to be sidelined for around four to six weeks, according to Shams Charania of ESPN.
Reaves not only will miss the rest of the regular season, but the injury will sideline him for around four to six weeks, meaning he's also expected to miss the first round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs. This is a huge loss for the Lakers, as they also recently lost Luka Doncic (hamstring), meaning the burden on offense will go through LeBron James. Reaves averaged 23.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game in 51 regular-season contests, and his ability to return before the start of the playoffs will be key for the Lakers' chances to make a deep playoff run. Expect Luke Kennard and Bronny James to see expanded roles in the backcourt with both Reaves and Doncic sidelined.

Nicolas Claxton C | BKN
Nets' Nic Claxton: Ruled out for Sunday
Claxton (hand) is out for Sunday's meeting with the Wizards.
Claxton's absence will open up minutes for Josh Minott and E.J. Liddell. Claxton should be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

Bobby Portis PF | MIL
Bucks' Bobby Portis: Remaining out Sunday
Portis (wrist) won't play in Sunday's game against Memphis.
Portis has missed the Bucks' last six games because of a sprained right wrist. At this point, it's possible he may have already played his final game of the 2025-26 campaign. While Portis remains on the shelf, Jericho Sims should continue to see more action.

Gary Trent Jr. SF | MIL
Bucks' Gary Trent: Out for Sunday
Trent (hip) won't play Sunday against the Grizzlies.
This will be Trent's second straight game on the sidelines, and with Tuesday's contest in Brooklyn being the first of a back-to-back set, it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss at least one more game. AJ Green and Cormac Ryan should see heavy minutes Sunday as some of the last men standing in Milwaukee's backcourt.

Ziaire Williams SF | BKN
Nets' Ziaire Williams: Won't play Sunday
Williams has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Wizards due to left foot soreness.
With Williams unavailable Sunday, there will be more opportunities for Ochai Agbaji, Chaney Johnson and Josh Minott. Williams' next chance to play will come Tuesday versus the Bucks.

Jabari Smith PF | HOU
Rockets' Jabari Smith: Not listed on injury report
Smith (face) is not being listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Warriors.
Smith was forced out of Friday's win over the Jazz after taking a shot to the face, but it doesn't appear he'll be spending any additional time on the sidelines. Smith is averaging 15.6 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 2.2 triples, 0.8 steals and 0.9 swats per game this season.

Anfernee Simons SG | CHI
Bulls' Anfernee Simons: Remains out Sunday
Simons (wrist) remains out for Sunday's game against Phoenix.
Simons hasn't played since the 126-110 loss to the Detroit Pistons on Feb. 21. With only five games remaining before the Bulls wrap up the 2025-26 campaign, Simons may have already played his final game of the season. While the 26-year-old remains on the shelf, Collin Sexton and Rob Dillingham should continue to absorb most of the backcourt minutes from off the bench.
