McLaughlin (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Spurs' 129-114 win over the Bulls.

With San Antonio now back to full strength, McLaughlin isn't expected to be featured in the rotation moving forward and will likely be limited mainly to garbage-time cameos. He had appeared in each of the Spurs' previous seven games but averaged just 9.4 minutes per contest during that stretch.

Kispert (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Hawks' 112-102 win over the Celtics.

For the first time since being acquired from the Wizards in early January, Kispert was left out of the rotation. The Hawks opted to remove Kispert from the mix after he had struggled to live up to his billing as a perimeter threat over his first 35 appearances with the club, during which he shot just 32.6 percent from downtown on 4.1 attempts per game. Kispert doesn't offer much impact as a creator and isn't a standout defender, so his opportunities could be limited while he continues to struggle with his three-point shot.

Wilson (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against Charlotte.

Wilson is set to return from a one-game absence. Over his last seven appearances, he's been solid with 10.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 three-pointers across 21.9 minutes per contest.

Jakucionis (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the Heat's 119-109 win over the 76ers.

Head coach Erik Spoelstra ran out an extremely streamlined nine-man rotation Monday, handing six players at least 30 minutes while playing two others (Simone Fontecchio and Dru Smith) less than 10 minutes. Jakucionis ended up being one of the casualties from the rotation, as Spoelstra turned to Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez and Smith to play point guard when Davion Mitchell was off the floor. While the Heat won't necessarily stick with this rotation configuration moving forward, it's nonetheless an indication that Jakucionis' role could be volatile from game to game. The rookie first-round pick had appeared in each of Miami's previous 22 contests, averaging 8.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.6 three-pointers in 19.9 minutes while shooting 50 percent from the floor.
