  • Cam Spencer PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cam Spencer: Doubtful for Monday

    Spencer is doubtful for Monday's game in Atlanta due to lower-back soreness.

    It looks like Spencer will be joining Ja Morant (elbow) and Jahmai Mashack (ankle) on the inactive list for Monday's game, which should result in more minutes for Walter Clayton and Javon Small. Check back for official confirmation on Spencer's status closer to Monday's tipoff.

  • Dom Barlow PF | PHI

    76ers' Dominick Barlow: Doubtful for Monday

    Barlow (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against Oklahoma City.

    Barlow exited Saturday's 126-116 win over Utah after only four minutes of work because of a sprained left ankle. If he can't suit up, Trendon Watford would be considered the favorite to start at power forward against one of the top defensive clubs in the Association.

  • Thunder's Branden Carlson: Not listed on injury report

    Carlson (back) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game in Philadelphia.

    While Carlson will be available for Monday's game, so will the rest of the Thunder centers, so there are no guarantees he'll be able to find minutes in the rotation. In 35 appearances for the Thunder this season, the second-year center has averaged 4.9 points and 2.6 rebounds per contest.

  • Aaron Nesmith SF | IND

    Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Questionable to face Orlando

    Nesmith (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Magic.

    Nesmith has played in five straight games but could be held out of Monday's contest in Orlando due to right ankle injury management. If the 26-year-old wing isn't cleared to suit up, Ben Sheppard and Quenton Jackson would be candidates to see a bump in minutes.

  • Obi Toppin PF | IND

    Pacers' Obi Toppin: Questionable for Monday

    Toppin (foot) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Magic.

    Toppin could receive a rest day for the first game of a four-game week, which would create more opportunity for Kobe Brown and Micah Potter. Check back for official word on Toppin's status closer to Monday's tipoff.

  • Jalen Johnson SF | ATL

    Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Questionable for Monday

    Johnson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Memphis.

    Johnson is in danger of missing a second consecutive contest due to left shoulder inflammation. If the star forward remains sidelined, Jonathan Kuminga, Mouhamed Gueye and Zaccharie Risacher would be candidates to see increased playing time.

  • Joel Embiid C | PHI

    76ers' Joel Embiid: Still out Monday

    Embiid (oblique) is out for Monday's game against Oklahoma City.

    At this point, it remains a mystery regarding how long Embiid will stay on the shelf. While he is out of commission, Adem Bona is the favorite to stay in the starting lineup. Andre Drummond will also continue to be in line for more work.

  • Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Questionable for Monday

    Nembhard (calf) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Magic.

    Nembhard returned from the calf issue in Saturday's loss to the Spurs, but he might return to the sidelines Monday, with that game being the first in a four-game week. If Nembhard is ruled out, T.J. McConnell and Kam Jones would see a boost in fantasy appeal.

  • Pascal Siakam PF | IND

    Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Iffy for Monday

    Siakam (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Magic.

    Siakam returned from a six-game absence due to a right knee sprain in Saturday's loss to the Spurs, during which he tallied 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes. However, the star forward may be held out of Monday's contest. If Siakam is ultimately ruled out, Kobe Brown and Jalen Slawson would be candidates to see increased playing time.

  • Jalen Williams SF | OKC

    Thunder's Jalen Williams: Cleared to play Monday

    Williams (hamstring) has been removed from the Thunder injury report and will be available to play Monday against the 76ers.

    Williams has missed the Thunder's past 16 games after aggravating a right hamstring strain in Oklahoma City's penultimate contest before the All-Star break, but after an extended period of rest and recovery, he's ready to return to action. Given the length of his absence, Williams will likely be eased in with a relatively light workload, and he'll presumably operate with a minute restriction for multiple games. His return Monday -- even in a limited capacity -- will likely lower the minutes ceilings of nearly all of the Thunder's wing and forward options. Before his latest shutdown, Williams had appeared in 26 games for Oklahoma City and averaged 17.5 points, 5.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 0.8 three-pointers in 29.1 minutes while shooting 47.9 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from downtown.
