Thompson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.

Thompson is questionable due to right ankle injury management after missing five straight games earlier this month due to a right ankle sprain. If the third-year forward is ultimately ruled out, Kevin Huerter and Javonte Green would be candidates to see increased playing time.

LeVert (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.

LeVert is expected to keep his absence to a one-game minimum due to a right knee issue. The veteran swingman has averaged 7.7 points, 3.3 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 19.6 minutes per contest in his last seven games, shooting 37.0 percent from the field during this stretch.

Hachimura (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Nets.

Hachimura is ready to end a three-game absence due to right calf injury management, which should slightly eat into the playing time of Jake LaRavia. Across his past five appearances, Hachimura has averaged 5.8 points, 2.4 rebounds and 0.4 steals in 20.4 minutes per game while shooting 54.2 percent from the field.

Doncic (hamstring) is available for Friday's game against the Nets.

Doncic will power through his questionable tag for this contest. He's been playing a ton of minutes lately, making him a candidate for a maintenance day in the upcoming back-to-back set that begins Monday against Washington.

Dosunmu (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Dosunmu remains day-to-day after missing Wednesday's game against the Rockets. Anthony Edwards (knee) remains out, so the Timberwolves may need to rely on Bones Hyland, Terrence Shannon and Jaylen Clark.

McDaniels (knee) is out for Saturday's game against Detroit.

It's set to be a rare absence for McDaniels, who's sitting out for just the third time all season. With Ayo Dosunmu (calf) iffy for Saturday, Mike Conley, Bones Hyland and Kyle Anderson could all see meaningful playing time versus the Pistons.

Edwards (knee) will not play Saturday against the Pistons.

Edwards continues to be limited to individual work, but he's trending in the right direction. Based on previous reporting, a return Monday against the Mavericks could be on the table.

Melton (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards.

The Warriors are calling this injury management, so a maintenance day is on the table for Melton. In his most recent game against the Nets on Wednesday, Melton had 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and four steals in 28 minutes.

Johnson (foot) is available for Friday's game against the Warriors,

Johnson is returning from a three-game absence with a right foot sprain, which is likely to send Leaky Black to the bench. Over his last eight outings, Johnson has averaged 12.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 23.0 minutes per game while shooting 37.1 percent from the floor.

Coulibaly (heel) will play Friday against the Warriors.

The second-year forward will continue to push through his heel issue for now, but he may receive some maintenance days down the stretch. Over his last three games, he's averaging 15.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists.
