Jovic (back) will not play Tuesday against the Bucks.

No surprise here, as Jovic was previously considered doubtful. With Jovic out for a second straight game, Pelle Larsson could see a small uptick in minutes.

Jones (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.

Jones was previously considered questionable. With the Pacers very shorthanded, Jones is likely to see a considerable workload Tuesday.

Goodwin (calf) will be re-evaluated in 1-to-2 weeks, according to Suns reporter Mark McClune on Tuesday.

It was reported Monday that Goodwin had no timetable for a return, so this does not mean a return is imminent. The Suns have been devastated by injuries, and Dillon Brooks (hand) is slated to miss multiple weeks as well. In the meantime, guys like Jamaree Bouyea and Amir Coffey could become more involved.

Sheppard posted 15 points (5-9 FG, 5-9 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 24 minutes off the bench during Monday's 125-105 victory over Utah.

It was another big night from downtown for the No. 3 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Sheppard has sunk at least one three-pointer in all nine of Houston's games in February and drained four or more in three of the last five, averaging 12.7 points, 3.2 assists, 2.9 boards, 2.6 threes and 1.4 steals in 24.7 minutes a contest

Sengun posted 16 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and one steal across 36 minutes during Monday's 125-105 win over the Jazz.

The fifth-year center fell just short of his third triple-double of the season, and the 11th of his career. Sengun has seen his offense taper off a bit in February as the Rockets struggle to find enough shots for everyone, but through nine games this month, he's still averaging 17.7 points, 8.8 boards, 6.3 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.0 steals.

Durant recorded 18 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt), five rebounds, 12 assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 125-105 victory over Utah.

The double-double was his sixth of the season, and the 12 assists were a season high for Durant. The future Hall of Famer has delivered his usual well-rounded production in February, averaging 24.5 points, 5.3 boards, 4.3 assists, 2.6 threes, 1.5 steals and 0.9 blocks in eight games on the month.

Eason supplied 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Monday's 125-105 victory over Utah.

The fourth-year wing produced his second straight double-double and his fourth of the season, all of which have come since the calendar flipped to 2026. Through eight games in February, Eason is averaging 11.4 points, 6.8 boards, 1.9 threes, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals, but he continues to struggle on offense, shooting just 39.1 percent from the floor and 32.6 percent from long distance.

Thompson finished Monday's 125-105 victory over the Jazz with 20 points (8-9 FG, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 29 minutes.

It's the first time in eight February games that Thompson has scored at least 20 points. The third-year guard's lack of offensive production has been due to a decline in usage rather than efficiency. He's shooting 52.7 percent from the floor on the month but has attempted just 9.3 field goals a game, down significantly from his 13.2 attempts per game on the season. In those eight February contests, Thompson is averaging 13.0 points, 7.0 boards, 4.5 assists, 1.9 steals and 0.9 blocks.

Filipowski chipped in 13 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals across 24 minutes during Monday's 125-105 loss to the Rockets.

The second-year center has started three straight games and nabbed multiple steals in each one, racking up 13 pilfers in total. Over the last 12 games (six starts), Filipowski is averaging 12.3 points, 8.5 boards, 2.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.9 threes in 22.3 minutes while shooting 58.2 percent from the floor and 44.0 percent from beyond the arc. With both Walker Kessler (shoulder) and Jusuf Nurkic (nose) done for the rest of the season, Filipowski should be locked into a significant workload and usage in the Utah frontcourt.

Sensabaugh logged 26 points (10-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 32 minutes off the bench during Monday's 125-105 loss to the Rockets.

The third-year wing played only 19 minutes Friday in Memphis and managed just nine points, but when he isn't subjected to load management by a tanking Utah squad, Sensabaugh has been one of the team's most consistent offensive producers. He's scored in double digits in 10 of the last 13 games (one start), averaging 16.8 points, 2.8 boards, 2.6 threes and 1.7 assists in 25.8 minutes a contest.
