Embiid (foot/sinus fracture) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Embiid has been on the injury report as of late due to a left foot sprain and a sinus fracture. He's played in six of the 76ers' last eight games and is coming off a 32-point performance against the Jazz on Saturday. Embiid is averaging 22.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 steals over 28.7 minutes per game this season.

Drummond (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Drummond has missed the last two games due to a sprained toe which now has his status for Monday in the air. If he is unable to go, Guerschon Yabusele will likely continue to see an ample role.

Collins (hip) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Collins is likely to miss a fourth straight game due to a left hip contusion. If he is ultimately unable to go, Cody Williams and Brice Sensabaugh are likely to see increased roles.

Clarke (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Clarke joins a laundry list of Grizzlies players ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest, with the big man's absence due to right knee soreness. With Zach Edey (concussion) also out of the lineup, Jay Huff will likely see a substantial role in the frontcourt alongside Jaren Jackson.

Edey has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder due to a concussion.

Edey was a late addition to the injury report and appears to have landed in concussion protocols, putting his status for Tuesday's game in Phoenix in jeopardy as well. With Edey and Santi Aldama (ankle) out, Jay Huff and Brandon Clarke (knee) are candidates for expanded roles.

Okongwu (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Okongwu will return to action Sunday after missing five straight games due to left knee inflammation. Before the injury, the big man scored in double figures in eight straight games, averaging 13.4 points and 7.4 rebounds in 24.9 minutes per game during that stretch.

Fernando (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Fernando hasn't made an NBA appearance since Dec. 12, when he logged just two minutes. His absence won't impact Toronto's rotation.

Poeltl (groin) is available for Sunday's game against the Hawks, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Poeltl has missed four straight games due to a bilateral groin strain but will return to action Sunday and presumably start at center. In his first 25 appearances this season, the veteran has averaged 15.9 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 steals in 32.5 minutes per game.

Missi (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Clippers.

Missi will land on the injury report while he deals with a mid-back contusion. The rookie has delivered a solid start to his NBA career through 31 regular-season appearances, and he has averaged 10.0 points and 10.1 rebounds in 31.0 minutes per game over his last 10 outings. If the big man is sidelined Monday, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Daniel Theis are candidates for increased roles.

Carter will start Sunday's game against the Nets.

After three games off the bench, Carter will move back into the starting lineup, as the Magic will be without Anthony Black (back), Paolo Banchero (oblique), Franz Wagner (oblique) and Moritz Wagner (knee). As a starter this season, Carter has averaged 7.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks in 25.5 minutes per game.
