  • Jakob Poeltl C | TOR

    Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Cleared to face Clippers

    Poeltl (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Poeltl will return from a one-game absence due to a lingering back injury. Since returning from a prolonged absence Feb. 11 due to the back issue, Poeltl has appeared in 14 games, averaging 11.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.1 blocks across 26.1 minutes.

  • Peyton Watson SF | DEN

    Nuggets' Peyton Watson: Will play Wednesday

    Watson (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

    Watson will shed a questionable tag in time to face Dallas, marking his return from a one-game absence due to a strained right hamstring. The 23-year-old forward has appeared in just one game following his 19-game absence, so it's likely he'll play limited minutes off the bench once again.

  • Brandon Ingram SF | TOR

    Raptors' Brandon Ingram: Will play Wednesday

    Ingram (heel) is good to go for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Ingram is back after a one-game absence, which could result in Ja'Kobe Walter heading back to the second unit. Immanuel Quickley (foot) is out, so Ingram could see an uptick in usage Wednesday evening.

  • Mike Conley PG | MIN

    Timberwolves' Mike Conley: Starting Wednesday

    Conley is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Houston, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.

    The Timberwolves are without Anthony Edwards (knee) and Ayo Dosunmu (calf) on Wednesday, allowing Conley to make his first start since Jan. 26. The veteran point guard has been out of the rotation for most of the past month, so he may not see typical starter's minutes.

  • Aaron Gordon PF | DEN

    Nuggets' Aaron Gordon: Ruled out for Wednesday

    Gordon (hamstring) won't play Wednesday versus the Mavericks.

    Gordon will hit the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back set, but he should be back for Friday's meeting with the Jazz. With Gordon out, there will be more minutes available for Spencer Jones, Cameron Johnson and Peyton Watson.

  • Moussa Cisse C | DAL

    Mavericks' Moussa Cisse: Not available Wednesday

    Cisse (two-way) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.

    Cisse hasn't suited up for the Mavericks since March 6 while the team continues to manage his availability as the season winds down. After Wednesday, the undrafted rookie out of Memphis will be eligible to play in four of the Mavericks' final nine games while he remains signed to a two-way deal. Cisse's most recent game action came in the G League back on Sunday, when he played 28 minutes and recorded 17 points, 12 rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks in the Texas Legends' 109-106 win over the Iowa Wolves. He had missed the Legends' previous game Friday against the Wolves due to a right shoulder injury.

  • Kawhi Leonard SF | LAC

    Clippers' Kawhi Leonard: Will play Wednesday

    Leonard (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Raptors, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Leonard will power through an ankle issue and make himself available for Wednesday's game. Leonard is averaging 28.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.7 triples and 2.0 steals per game this season.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Won't play Wednesday

    Gafford (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Denver, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Gafford has been downgraded from questionable to out Wednesday. The 27-year-old center picked up a sprained right shoulder in the Mavericks' most recent game. With Gafford out of the picture Wednesday, Marvin Bagley and Dwight Powell could see more playing time. Gafford's next chance to play will come Friday at Portland.

  • Kyle Kuzma PF | MIL

    Bucks' Kyle Kuzma: Won't play Wednesday

    Kuzma (Achilles) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game in Portland.

    This will be Kuzma's second straight game on the sidelines, and for now, he should be considered highly questionable for Saturday's meeting with the Spurs. Jericho Sims and Pete Nance will help pick up the slack in Kuzma's absence.

  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Cleared to face Denver

    Williams (concussion) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Williams will return from a three-game absence due to a concussion. His return could spell fewer minutes for Ryan Nembhard and Klay Thompson.
