Tyrese Proctor PG | CLE
Cavaliers' Tyrese Proctor: Exits to locker room
Proctor exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to an apparent ankle injury, Ethan Sands of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Proctor appears unlikely to return in the final minutes of this contest after exiting to the locker room with 3:23 remaining in the fourth quarter. If he's forced to miss time, Meleek Thomas and Craig Porter would be candidates to see increased burn.

He's reached the 20-point mark in four of his last five appearances and has knocked down four triples in four straight games.

Brown turned in an efficient performance, particularly from three-point range, finishing with a game- and season-high scoring total.

Cade Cunningham PG | DET
Pistons' Cade Cunningham: Double-doubles with four stocks
Cunningham racked up 26 points (9-22 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 11 assists, seven rebounds, two steals and two blocks over 40 minutes in Wednesday's 112-106 loss to the 76ers.
While Cunningham struggled with his shot and coughed up four turnovers, he delivered everywhere else and was perfect at the line. He's been a top-15 player this season with averages of 24.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 7.6 assists, 2.3 triples, 1.6 steals and 1.3 blocks per contest on 47.2 percent shooting from the field and 80 percent at the charity stripe.

Zach Collins C | CHI
Bulls' Zach Collins: Doesn't check back in Wednesday
Collins (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's 135-105 loss to the Knicks, finishing with three points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, one rebound and one steal across 14 minutes.
Collins headed back to the locker room with a trainer and did not return. He can be considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Sixers until the Bulls offer an update on his status. If the big man is forced to miss time, Leonard Miller could see increased burn.

Anthony Davis PF | WAS
Wizards' Anthony Davis: Delivers strong all-around effort
Davis finished with 26 points (12-19 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 30 minutes in Wednesday's 120-105 loss to Atlanta.
Davis got off to a hot start Wednesday night. He kept it going through most of the contest, though he cooled off in the fourth quarter. Still, it was a quality showing for the multi-time All-Star, who is now averaging 23.4 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks across 33.0 minutes per outing in eight regular-season appearances.

Adem Bona C | PHI
76ers' Adem Bona: Doesn't return vs. Detroit
Bona exited Wednesday's 112-106 win over the Pistons in the fourth quarter and did not return due to an apparent head injury, finishing with five points (2-4 FG, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 15 minutes.
Bona headed back to the locker room with trainers and never checked back in. The big man can be considered questionable ahead of Friday's game at Cleveland until the Sixers offer an update on his status.

Nickeil Alexander-Walker PG | ATL
Hawks' Nickeil Alexander-Walker: Remains red-hot Wednesday
Alexander-Walker ended with 26 points (9-20 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes in Wednesday's 120-105 win over the Wizards.
Alexander-Walker had another fantastic performance Wednesday, tying Anthony Davis for the game-high in points. With Jalen Johnson (ankle) sidelined for the Hawks' last two contests, Alexander-Walker has turned things up, averaging 30.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.0 steals while shooting 51.7 percent from deep over 31.9 minutes per outing during that span. The 28-year-old is having the best season of his career, and he could stay more productive than usual if Johnson misses more time moving forward.

Payton Pritchard PG | BOS
Celtics' Payton Pritchard: Doesn't return Wednesday
Pritchard exited Wednesday's 109-102 win over the Bucks and did not return due to a right eye abrasion, finishing with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 FT), five assists and one rebound across 18 minutes.
Pritchard was deemed questionable to return but never checked back in. He can be considered questionable for Friday's game at Charlotte, and if he's forced to miss time, Baylor Scheierman and Mike Conley would be candidates for increased playing time.

Zach Collins C | CHI
Bulls' Zach Collins: Heads to locker room
Collins (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game against the Knicks, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.
It's unclear why Collins exited to the locker room with a trainer, though it's unlikely he'll return in the final minutes of this blowout. If he's forced to miss time, Leonard Miller would likely see increased burn, especially if Jalen Smith (hand) joins Collins on the inactive list.
