Yurtseven (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Nets.

Biyombo is doubtful for Monday's game against the Thunder due to back soreness.

Biyombo returned to the starting unit over the last two matchups, but he'll likely be forced to miss his first game since the start of November on Monday. Assuming Biyombo is sidelined, Jaren Jackson and Xavier Tillman are candidates to see increased run at center.

Porzingis has tallied a double-double in three games this season, including in two of his last three outings.

Holmes (illness) is questionable for Monday's game in Denver.

Holmes is in danger of missing back-to-back games due to an illness. His availability is important for Dallas' shorthanded frontcourt.

Holmes (illness) isn't listed on the Mavericks' injury report for Monday's game in Denver, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Holmes missed Saturday's win over Portland due to an illness but will suit up Monday. With Dereck Lively (ankle) and Maxi Kleber (toe) sidelined, Holmes could carve out solid a depth role versus Denver.

Lively (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game in Denver, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

Lively sprained his left ankle during Saturday's win over Portland and will miss at least one additional contest. Maxi Kleber (toe) also remains out, and Richaun Holmes (illness) is questionable. Dwight Powell, Derrick Jones and Grant Williams are candidates for increased minutes at center.

Capela (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pistons, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Capela missed his first game of the season Saturday, allowing Onyeka Okongwu to start at center. The extent of Capela's injury remains unclear, but he can be considered a game-time call ahead of Monday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Williams (back) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Williams will likely miss a fifth straight game Monday with a low back contusion. The Hornets haven't provided an official update, so it's unclear when he'll be able to return, but Williams can be considered day-to-day moving forward. In Williams' absence, Nick Richards has played well as the starting center.

Adebayo (hip) has been cleared to play in Monday's game against Minnesota.

Despite ominously lacking a timetable to return, Adebayo is set to return to action after a seven-game absence Monday. It's unclear if his minutes will be monitored, but Adebayo's bruised left hip appears to be on the mend and shouldn't carry an aggravation risk. His return will coincide with Tyler Herro's (ankle), as the duo have both been cleared for action Monday.
