Davis (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Toronto, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

Davis is listed as questionable for a second straight game with a left knee hyperextension designation. He got the green light Sunday and posted 24 points, 14 rebounds and three blocks in 35 minutes during a 116-104 win over Brooklyn. However, Tuesday is the front half of a back-to-back set, so the Lakers may opt to proceed with caution. LeBron James (ankle) is also questionable for Tuesday.

The Hawks announced Monday that Okongwu (toe) will be re-evaluated in 7-to-10 days.

Okongwu has been cleared to resume basketball activities, but based on his re-evaluation timeline, he's set to miss at least four games, and perhaps even the rest of the regular season. While Okongwu has been sidelined since March 21 with the left toe sprain, Bruno Fernando has re-entered head coach Quin Snyder's rotation as the top backup to starting center Clint Capela.

Embiid (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Thunder.

Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN and Shams Charania of The Athletic both reported earlier Monday that Embiid -- who's been sidelined since Jan. 30 while recovering from left meniscus surgery -- is expected to return sometime this week. However, the reigning MVP will miss at least one more game and turn his sights on suiting up during Philadelphia's upcoming three-game road trip, which starts Thursday in Miami and ends Sunday in San Antonio.

Richards is questionable for Monday's game against the Celtics due to plantar fascia in his right foot.

Richards and Vasilije Micic (shoulder) are both questionable for the second half of Charlotte's back-to-back set after playing heavy minutes during Sunday's loss to the Clippers. If Richards is sidelined, the Hornets won't have a true center available, so Grant Williams, JT Thor, Davis Bertans and Miles Bridges could all see time as a small-ball five.

Miami recalled Robinson from the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce on Sunday.

Robinson played one minute during Sunday's 119-107 win over the Wizards but didn't record any counting stats. He's appeared in five of Miami's last six games, totaling eight points, five rebounds, five assists and one block in 25 minutes.

Hartenstein had 17 points (6-8 FG, 5-7 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 113-112 loss to Oklahoma City.

Hartenstein was efficient from the field and active on the glass en route to posting his first double-double since March 18. Hartenstein doesn't get many touches on offense, which limits his upside a bit, but he's been able to deliver solid numbers across the board regardless of that. Over his last 10 outings, he's averaging 11.7 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.2 steals per contest.

Gafford racked up six points (3-4 FG), four rebounds, three assists, five blocks and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 125-107 win over the Rockets.

This was Gafford's 14th career game with at least five blocks, and he needed only 22 minutes to do it Sunday. He's been terrific for Dallas lately, averaging 12.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.5 blocks over his last 10 games.

Gobert ended Sunday's 109-101 loss to the Bulls with 19 points (8-8 FG, 3-7 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 38 minutes.

Gobert recorded his fourth consecutive double-double in stellar fashion, as he was perfect from the field, a feat he's achieved just five times this season. While he was also his usual disruptive presence on the defensive end, his contributions were not enough to lift Minnesota to victory past a combative Bulls team. Gobert will aim to keep his double-double streak alive when the Timberwolves take on the Rockets on Tuesday.

Jokic recorded 26 points (11-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 18 rebounds, 16 assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 130-101 victory over Cleveland.

With Jamal Murray (knee) out of the lineup, Jokic took his production to another level despite playing through a wrist issue of his own. The perennial MVP candidate recorded his 23rd triple-double of the season, second in the league behind Domantas Sabonis' 26, and it was Jokic's third with 15-plus board and assists. Jokic wraps up a dominant March that saw him average 27.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, 8.1 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.9 threes over 14 contests while shooting 57.5 percent from the floor.

Embiid (knee) is expected to return to action at some point this week, possibly as soon as Tuesday versus the Thunder, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Embiid, who has been sidelined since Jan. 30 while recovering from left meniscus surgery, has been ramping up his activity in practice and was able to go through some 5-on-5 scrimmages recently with no issues. His return would provide a massive boost to the 76ers as they look to prepare for the playoffs. More clarity on Embiid's status for Tuesday's game is expected later Monday, when the 76ers will release their first injury report. Embiid's impending return will result in Mo Bamba moving to a bench role and possibly losing his spot in the rotation, as Paul Reed had been serving as the primary backup center prior to Embiid's meniscus injury.
