Bol (foot) will not play in Monday's game against Miami, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

This will be the ninth straight game on the sidelines for Bol, though he is reportedly nearing a return. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Nets.

Nurkic (thumb) is questionable for Monday's game against the Heat, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.comreports.

Nurkic was unable to play Sunday against the Magic, but he remains day-to-day. Drew Eubanks saw 29 minutes of action Sunday in Nurkic's absence, scoring four points (2-2 FG) with eight rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block.

Porzingis, who's listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain, was active during Boston's morning shootaround ahead of Monday's game against the Pelicans, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Porzingis missed Saturday's blowout loss to the Clippers after tweaking his ankle Thursday versus the Heat. However, he's trending in the right direction to return Monday, but his official availability likely won't be known until closer to the 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Sarr (hip) played the final 5:30 of Sunday's 120-104 loss to the Pistons, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG) and one rebound.

Though he was available to play after missing the Thunder's last three games with a right hip strain, Sarr wasn't a part of the rotation while the contest was competitive. He didn't check into the game until after the midway point of the fourth quarter, when the Thunder were trailing by 16 points and had already essentially conceded the win. The two-way player remains behind Chet Holmgren, Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams in the pecking order at center and could be headed to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue in the near future to get more meaningful run.

Capela notched 19 points (9-13 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds and one block over 28 minutes in Sunday's 126-125 win over Toronto

Capela led all players in Sunday's contest in rebounds while ending as one of five Hawks with 15 or more points in a double-double showcase. Capela has tallied a double-double in 20 games this season, including in four straight outings.

Bamba (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's matchup against Portland.

Bamba has missed the last seven games due to right knee inflammation, but he will be available Monday. If Joel Embiid (knee) is forced to miss a second straight game, Bamba could see some run at center behind Paul Reed, who would presumably draw another start.

Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Embiid missed Saturday's game due to left knee soreness and finds his status up in the air again for Monday. If he is unable to go, Paul Reed figures to be the main beneficiary while Nicolas Batum and Marcus Morris could see expanded roles as well.

Jokic amassed 26 points (8-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 10-16 FT), 16 rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Saturday's 111-105 victory over the 76ers.

Jokic led all players in Saturday's contest in rebounds while handing out a team-high-tying assist total and leading all 76ers in scoring in a balanced performance. Jokic has hauled in 15 or more rebounds in 10 games this season while tallying at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in seven of his last 10 outings.

Adebayo closed with 12 points (6-10 FG), 13 rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Saturday's 125-109 loss to the Knicks.

Adebayo led all players in Saturday's contest in rebounds while ending as the lone Heat player with a double-digit rebound mark along with a double-double. Adebayo has hauled in 13 or more rebounds in nine games this season while posting a double-double in three of his last four outings.

Powell (eye) is questionable to play Monday versus Orlando.

Powell is dealing with a scratched cornea in his left eye. He has missed three consecutive games due to the injury, although Dereck Lively and Maxi Kleber (toe) were developing a firm grasp on center minutes prior to Powell's affliction.
