Jones won't start against the Lakers on Saturday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

With Aaron Gordon (hamstring) back in the lineup, Jones will slide to the second unit. Over three appearances off the bench this month, the 24-year-old forward has averaged 2.7 points and 3.3 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per contest.

Hachimura is not in the Lakers' starting lineup against the Nuggets on Saturday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Hachimura has started each of the Lakers' last four games, but he'll come off the bench Saturday due to the return of Marcus Smart. Hachimura has averaged 13.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.6 threes over 30.6 minutes per game over his last five outings.

Jaquez (hip) is available for Saturday's game against the Magic.

Jaquez was a late addition to the injury report due to left hip tightness, though he'll shed his questionable tag and suit up Saturday. Over six March appearances, the third-year forward has averaged 14.8 points, 6.2 assists and 5.0 rebounds in 30.0 minutes per game off the bench.

Gordon (hamstring) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Gordon sat out Thursday's game against the Spurs while managing a right hamstring injury, and he has been given the green light to play in Saturday's road tilt. He's been inconsistent since returning from a 17-game absence due to his lingering hamstring injury, but he has been a key piece for the Nuggets since he was acquired from the Magic in March 2021. Gordon should find his consistency as he gets more games under his belt over the final weeks of the regular season.

Murray (ankle) has been upgraded to available for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Murray was listed as probable in the initial edition of the injury report, so it's not surprising to see him upgraded to available ahead of this matchup between two Western Conference heavyweights. Murray has been on a tear of late and is averaging 26.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 0.4 steals per game in his last five appearances.

Young (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Saturday's game against the Celtics, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.

Young checked out of Saturday's contest with 3:10 remaining in the third and immediately went back to the locker room. It's unclear why the star guard headed to the back, though he can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. He has already logged 24 minutes Saturday -- his highest mark with Washington thus far -- so it wouldn't be shocking if he doesn't return.

Jakucionis is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Magic.

The rookie floor general will retreat to the second unit due to the return of Tyler Herro (quadriceps). Jakucionis is averaging 7.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game in 11 appearances (three starts) since the All-Star break.

Powell will come off the bench against the Magic on Saturday.

Powell will return to action and end a seven-game absence due to a right groin strain. He'll operate in a reserve role in his return and will likely play under a minutes restriction. The Heat will roll with a starting five of Davion Mitchell, Tyler Herro, Pelle Larsson, Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware.

Jaquez has been downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the Magic due to a left hip issue, Zachary Weinberger of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Jaquez is dealing with tightness in his left hip and was an extremely late addition to the injury report. He'll presumably be a true game-time decision ahead of tipoff at 8:00 p.m. ET.

Howard has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Heat due to an illness, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Howard is battling through an illness that will sideline him for Saturday's contest, and he'll look to recover in time for Monday's game against the Hawks. He has averaged 23.0 minutes per game off the bench over his last four outings, and that playing time will likely be absorbed by Jevon Carter, Jase Richardson and Noah Penda.
