  • Maxi Kleber C | LAL

    Lakers' Maxi Kleber: Questionable for Monday

    Kleber (back) is questionable for Monday's game in Detroit.

    Kleber was recently able to get in a practice with the Lakers' G League affiliate, and this is the first time he's received the questionable tag since going down with the back issue, so he appears to be on the cusp of a return. That said, he's not a consistent part of the rotation in Los Angeles, so even if he's cleared, he wouldn't be guaranteed minutes.

  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Doubtful for Monday

    Williams (concussion) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against Golden State.

    Williams is in danger of missing his third straight contest. If he isn't available, Ryan Nembhard will likely absorb most of the minutes from off the bench.

  • Taj Gibson PF | MEM

    Grizzlies' Taj Gibson: Iffy to play Monday

    Gibson (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Hawks.

    Gibson has been a regular on the injury report of late due to right foot soreness. If he's unable to play Monday, then Taylor Hendricks would likely see a boost in minutes off the bench against Atlanta.

  • Luka Doncic PG | LAL

    Lakers' Luka Doncic: Suspension rescinded

    The NBA rescinded Doncic's 16th technical foul Sunday, allowing him to play in Monday's game against the Pistons, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Doncic exchanged words with Goga Bitadze during Saturday's win over the Magic, resulting in both players receiving a technical foul. However, the Lakers filed an appeal on Doncic's behalf to rescind the technical foul, and the appeal has since been approved. The superstar point guard's next tech will trigger a one-game suspension, though he's good to go Monday in Detroit. Doncic has posted at least 30 points in nine straight games, averaging 40.0 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 3.5 combined steals-plus-blocks in 37.7 minutes per game over that stretch.

  • Rui Hachimura PF | LAL

    Lakers' Rui Hachimura: Questionable for Monday

    Hachimura is questionable to play Monday in Detroit due to soreness in his right calf.

    If Hachimura can't play Monday, Jarred Vanderbilt would have the chance to get into the rotation, while Jake LaRavia could also see a slight bump in minutes. Check back for official word on Hachimura's status closer to Monday's tipoff.

  • Ja Morant PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Not playing Monday

    Morant (elbow) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

    Morant has been sidelined by a UCL sprain in his left elbow since late January. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Spurs, but he can be considered week-to-week until the Grizzlies provide a medical update for the star point guard.

  • Jahmai Mashack SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Jahmai Mashack: Out again Monday

    Mashack (ankle) won't play Monday in Atlanta.

    This will be Mashack's fourth consecutive game on the inactive list, and it's not encouraging that he continues to get ruled out a day in advance of tipoff. For now, he should be considered highly questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Spurs.

  • Luguentz Dort SF | OKC

    Thunder's Luguentz Dort: Off injury report

    Dort (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against Philadelphia.

    Dort missed the last two games because of a knee issue. He'll likely take back his spot in the starting lineup Monday, meaning Cason Wallace would head back to the bench.

  • Cedric Coward SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Ruled out for Monday

    Coward (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

    Coward will miss a third consecutive contest for personal reasons, and his next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Spurs. With the rookie first-rounder remaining sidelined, Javon Small, Walter Clayton and DeJon Jarreau are candidates to see increased minutes.

  • 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.
