George (hamstring) will remain sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Lakers.

A hamstring injury caused George to miss 15 consecutive games to end the campaign. However, it was an excellent third season for the talented guard, as he averaged 23.6 points, 6.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.1 minutes per contest.

Markkanen (hip) will not play in Sunday's season finale against the Lakers.

As expected, Markkanen will sit out the final game of the season. He ended the campaign having last played Feb. 23. Despite playing just 42 games, Markkanen had what could be considered a bounceback season -- at least in the box score. In his 34.4 minutes per game, he averaged 26.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.0 steals.

Sensabaugh (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Lakers.

Sensabaugh took a seat for Friday's win over Memphis but will return to action in Utah's regular-season finale. He has started each of his last seven appearances, during which he has averaged 22.4 points, 4.4 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 31.3 minutes per contest.

Jackson (ankle) is out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Warriors.

Jackson hasn't played since March 27, and his Sunday absence will mark the end of his regular season, though the Clippers have qualified for the Play-In Tournament. In his 17 appearances with the Clippers following his trade from the Pacers, Jackson averaged 7.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 blocks in 15.9 minutes.

Hayes (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

Hayes is in danger of missing a fourth straight game due to a left foot issue. If the big man is ruled out, Maxi Kleber and Jarred Vanderbilt would be candidates for increased playing time.

Sexton (finger, elbow) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Although the Bulls aren't going to the postseason, Sexton is expected to suit up for Chicago's final contest of the 2025-26 campaign. He is coming off a 12-point effort in Friday's 127-103 loss to Orlando. However, Sexton has an excellent chance to turn it around against one of the worst teams in the NBA.

Williams (thumb) is probable for Sunday's game in Dallas.

Williams has been playing through a sprained thumb on his non-shooting hand the past few games, and it looks like he'll continue to do so in Chicago's regular-season finale. Matas Buzelis (ankle) has already been ruled out, so Williams could be looking at another start Sunday.

James (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

James may be held out of the Lakers' regular-season finale due to left foot injury management. If the superstar forward is sidelined, Maxi Kleber, Drew Timme and Jarred Vanderbilt would be candidates for increased playing time.

Olbrich (foot) is probable to play Sunday versus the Mavs.

Olbrich is dealing with bilateral plantar fasciitis, but it appears he plans to continue to push through the pain. The 22-year-old big man started in Friday's loss to the Magic and finished with six points, nine rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and two turnovers across 32 minutes.

Leonard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Leonard is dealing with a left ankle sprain and could miss the Clippers' regular-season finale. If the star forward is ultimately ruled out, Bennedict Mathurin, Kobe Sanders and Nicolas Batum would be candidates to see increased playing time.
