Wells exited Monday's 146-107 loss to the Hawks with 10:23 remaining in the fourth quarter due to right foot soreness and was unable to return. He finished with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes.

Shortly after Wells' departure, the Grizzlies labeled him doubtful to return, and he unsurprisingly never checked back in while the game had already descended into garbage time. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Wednesday's game against the Spurs. If the second-year wing is forced to miss time, Rayan Rupert, DeJon Jarreau and Tyler Burton could all be candidates to absorb some of his minutes.

Williams (hamstring) totaled 18 points (8-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists and four rebounds across 20 minutes in Monday's 123-103 win over the 76ers.

Williams made his return from a 16-game absence due to a right hamstring strain and turned in an effective performance in a comfortable Thunder win. The 24-year-old has endured a frustrating season, with injuries limiting him to just 27 games thus far. He's now averaging 17.5 points per game, but that mark is his lowest since his 2022-23 rookie campaign, and he's converting at career-low rates from the field (48.3 percent) and three-point range (31.3 percent). The priority for the Thunder will be ensuring that Williams is healthy and at is at his best come the postseason as the team aims to capture its second straight championship.

Jenkins finished Monday's 113-110 win over the Lakers with 30 points (11-18 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight assists and four rebounds over 39 minutes.

Making his third straight start in the absence of Cade Cunningham (lung), Jenkins scored 10 of his career-high 30 points in the fourth quarter, including a mid-range jumper with 24.6 seconds left in the frame to put the Pistons up for good. After averaging just 3.3 minutes per game across seven NBA outings in 2024-25, Jenkins has thrived when thrust into an expanded role due to Cunningham absences this season. Jenkins had a similarly productive stretch in mid-November, when he averaged 19.3 points, 8.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 threes and 1.5 steals over 34.5 minutes across four consecutive starts. Considering Jenkins is shooting just 40.9 percent from the field on the season, some volatility with his scoring should be expected even while he remains in a high-usage, high-minute starting role. However, he should be an excellent source of counting stats, particularly in the assists category.

Minott will start Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, C.J. Holmes of the New York Daily News reports.

After going unused off the bench in Sunday's loss to Sacramento, Minott will enter Brooklyn's starting five for the first time this season due to the team being shorthanded in the second leg of this back-to-back set. Over his last five appearances, the 23-year-old forward has averaged 15.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.6 combined steals-plus-blocks across 22.0 minutes per game.

Wilson will start Monday's game against Portland, Sharif Phillips-Keaton of USA Today reports.

Wilson hadn't been part of the rotation in four of the Nets' last five games, but he'll end up making his first start of the season Monday while Brooklyn is without seven players. The third-year forward has averaged 10.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 21.0 minutes over his last four appearances.

Leonard (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Bucks, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

Leonard will shake off his questionable tag due to a left ankle sprain and suit up for a second consecutive contest. Over 11 March appearances, the star forward has averaged 29.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.8 steals across 30.6 minutes per game.

Collins (ankle) is out for Monday's game against Milwaukee, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

Collins will sit out Monday's matchup due to a left ankle sprain. Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders should be in line for an uptick in opportunities with Collins sidelined.

Harris (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Harris appeared on track to be active for Monday's contest with a probable tag but was downgraded to questionable before ultimately being ruled out due to a left groin contusion. The veteran hasn't been a consistent member of the Bucks' rotation of late, so his absence shouldn't have a major impact on playing time.

Kuzma (Achilles) is out Monday against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Kuzma suffered an Achilles injury during Saturday's game against Phoenix and is set to miss additional game action as a result. Jericho Sims, Taurean Prince and Pete Nance are all candidates to see more run in Kuzma's stead.

Santos is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Dallas, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

With Moses Moody (wrist) returning from a 10-game absence, Santos will slide to the bench after averaging 15.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.6 minutes over that span. In 36 games as a reserve this season, Santos is averaging 4.4 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 12.3 minutes per contest.
