Larsson is in the Heat's starting lineup against the Pacers on Sunday.

Larsson has come off the bench in each of the Heat's last two games, but the second-year pro will return to the starting lineup for Sunday's game due to the absence of Norman Powell (illness/back). Larsson started in 29 straight games from mid-January to late March, and over that span he averaged 12.87 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 0.8 steals over 29.6 minutes per game.

Ingram (heel) will play in Sunday's game against Orlando, according to Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca.

Ingram had a rough 13-point showing in Friday's 119-106 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. He popped up on the injury report because of right heel inflammation, although that won't keep him off the floor against Orlando. In two meetings with the Magic this season, the 28-year-old has averaged 26.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.5 steals while shooting 44.4 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from deep across 34.5 minutes per game.

Middleton (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's meeting with Minnesota.

Middleton will be back in action Monday following a one-game stint on the sidelines, which could result in fewer minutes for Klay Thompson. As a member of the Mavericks, Middleton has contributed averages of 11.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.2 triples per contest.

Toppin (back/foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Heat.

Toppin was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game due to a back issue and a right foot injury, but the sixth-year pro has been given the green light to play against Miami. He has scored in double digits in five of his last six outings, and over that span, he has averaged 13.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.2 threes over 18.8 minutes per game.

Gafford (shoulder) is probable to play Monday versus Minnesota.

Gafford is on track to return from a two-game absence Monday, which will likely result in Dwight Powell heading back to the second unit. In March, Gafford is averaging 15.3 points, 9.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 blocks per contest.

Marshall (illness) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

It looks like Marshall will be able to play through the illness Monday, but his status won't be officially known until closer to the 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff. He has started each of the Mavericks' last 10 games, and over that span, he has averaged 18.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.3 steals over 30.8 minutes per game.

Walker (back) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Miami.

Walker took a hard fall in Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers. Although he avoided a serious head injury, he won't be available Sunday due to a low back bruise. Without Walker on the floor, Kobe Brown and Jalen Slawson are candidates to see expanded roles.

Henderson is in the Trail Blazers' starting lineup against the Wizards on Sunday, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

With Jerami Grant (calf) sidelined, Henderson will make his fourth start of the season Sunday (and third since March 4). Over his last five outings, Henderson has averaged 13.8 points, 3.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 threes and 2.2 steals over 24.2 minutes per contest.

Bagley is questionable for Monday's matchup with Minnesota due to a left shoulder impingement.

Monday's game will be the first of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be shocking to see Bagley get hit with a maintenance day. If he's ruled out, Dwight Powell will have the chance for some extra minutes.

Nesmith (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with Miami.

Ben Sheppard, Jalen Slawson Quenton Jackson and Kobe Brown are among the players who could be in line for added minutes in the absence of Nesmith. For the time being, Nesmith should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game in Chicago.
