Kuminga is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks with left knee inflammation, per Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network.

Kuminga continues to be plagued by a nagging knee issue, which delayed his Hawks debut upon his arrival from Golden State. If the dynamic forward is unable to give it a go Wednesday, Zaccharie Risacher would be worthy of streaming consideration in shallow leagues and Corey Kispert in deeper formats.

Jerome (calf) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Portland.

The expectation is that Memphis will keep Jerome out of action for calf injury management on the second leg of the team's back-to-back set. Jahmai Mashack and Walter Clayton will be asked to help pick up the slack in the Grizzlies' depleted backcourt Wednesday.

Coward (knee) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Portland.

As expected, the Grizzlies are planning to hold Coward out for maintenance for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The rookie returned from a seven-game absence Tuesday against the Timberwolves and finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes.

Gibson (reconditioning) is out for Wednesday's game versus Portland.

Gibson is still getting up to speed with his new team and has yet to debut. His next chance to play comes Saturday against the Clippers.

Pippen (toe) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Portland.

The Grizzlies are expected to hold Pippen out of action for toe injury management. In his likely absence, Javon Small and Cam Spencer are in line to share the minutes at point guard Wednesday.

Aldama (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against Portland.

Aldama will be sidelined for a 12th straight game. He was initially cleared to play in Tuesday's game against Minnesota, only for the team to change course roughly 30 minutes before tipoff.

Porter is out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks due to right knee swelling.

Wednesday marks Porter's first absence since Feb. 3. The star guard can be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's matchup versus the Jazz. After coming off the bench in Monday's loss to Boston, Ryan Rollins figures to jump right back into the starting lineup in Porter's stead.

Salaun has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Boston due to a left knee sprain.

After being recalled from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Tuesday, Salaun checked into Wednesday's 117-90 win over Dallas in garbage time but was subbed out of the contest after playing just one minute and 17 seconds. The knee injury was presumably the cause of Salaun's departure, and he'll now be sidelined for the second leg of the back-to-back set.

Carlson (back) remains out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

Oklahoma City's third-string center will be sidelined for a fourth straight game. His next chance to play comes Saturday against Golden State.

Mitchell (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game against New York.

Mitchell will be sidelined for a 19th straight game and remains without a target date to return. Consider him doubtful at best for Saturday's game against Golden State.
