Bol (ankle) is good to go for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Bol will power through the ankle issue, but he's an inconsistent part of the rotation in Phoenix, so he can remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.

Kornet isn't in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Kornet will be replaced by Al Horford in the starting lineup Wednesday. Kornet is averaging 8.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.0 assists in 17.8 minutes across his last five appearances coming off the bench.

Horford is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Horford is back from his rest day and will return to the starting unit, sending Luke Kornet back to the bench. As a starter this season, Horford has registered averages of 10.1 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.1 triples, 1.0 blocks, 0.8 steals and 0.8 turnovers per contest on 51 percent shooting.

Bryant will start Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.

With Bam Adebayo (back) unavailable, Bryant will make his first start since Nov. 25 and his fourth start of the season. Over his last three starts, Bryant has averaged 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 19.7 minutes.

Collins (face/head) will play Wednesday against the Thunder.

Collins suffered a head contusion after getting posterized by the Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards on Monday but cleared concussion protocols and logged a limited practice Tuesday. It's unclear if Collins will be under any restrictions Wednesday, but Utah will need plenty of minutes out of him, given Lauri Markkanen's (quad/rest) absence.

Coach Joe Mazzulla said that Porzingis won't be on a minutes restriction for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Porzingis played just 21 minutes Monday after returning from a five-game absence due to a hamstring injury, but that may have also been due to the blowout nature of Boston's win over Detroit. The 28-year-old big man should be able to play closer to his season average of 29.6 minutes against Milwaukee.

Claxton is questionable for Thursday's game against Milwaukee due to an illness, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

Claxton hasn't missed a game since late December, but it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up Thursday due to his illness. Over 10 appearances in March, he's averaged 13.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.8 blocks in 30.5 minutes per game. If he's sidelined, Day'Ron Sharpe and Trendon Watford are candidates to handle increased roles.

Adebayo (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Adebayo was a late addition to Miami's injury report due to pain and swelling in his lower back contusion area, and he'll be unavailable for at least one game. Thomas Bryant and Nikola Jovic could see increased work against the Cavaliers.

Gibson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Gibson isn't a large enough part of the rotation for his playing status to impact fantasy hoops. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Celtics.

Bagley (back) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Kings.

Bagley's absence streak will extend to nine games Thursday due to a lumbar sprain. While there is no set timetable for his return, Bagley's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Toronto.
