McLaughlin will start in Monday's preseason matchup with the Jazz, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

The Spurs are resting their usual starters for Monday's exhibition, so it'll be McLaughlin starting alongside Julian Champagnie, Keldon Johnson, Harrison Barnes, Luke Kornet. McLaughlin and Ja'Kobi Gillespie figure to handle the point guard duties for San Antonio on Monday.

Sensabaugh (hip) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's preseason game against San Antonio.

Sensabaugh sat out Utah's first two preseason games due to a left hip injury, but his omission from the injury report paves the way for the Ohio State product to return to action Monday. In 75 games (22 starts) last season, he averaged 14.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 23.5 minutes per contest.

Markkanen (neck) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's preseason meeting with the Spurs.

It looks like Markkanen will be back after a one-game absence, which should shift Jaxson Hayes or Ace Bailey back to the second unit. If Markkanen can manage to stay healthy this season, he could be in for a career year as the main man in Utah.

Zikarsky (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Knicks.

Zikarsky will be inactive for Monday's road tilt, presumably for rest purposes. The young center's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Pistons.

Shannon (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Knicks.

Shannon will be unavailable at Madison Square Garden after starting Saturday against the Heat. Across three preseason games, the wing is averaging 11.3 points, 3.3 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 18.5 minutes per contest. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Pistons.

Kuminga (general soreness) won't play in Monday's preseason game against the Knicks, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

"[Kuminga] is dealing with a little bit of bumps and bruises that we're just being overly cautious with," said head coach Chris Finch when asked why Kuminga would miss Monday's exhibition. It sounds like there's a decent chance Kuminga will be able to get back out there for Wednesday's preseason meeting with the Pistons.

Freeman is out for Monday's preseason matchup with the Knicks due to a right shoulder injury.

Freeman exited Saturday's exhibition with a shoulder injury and will now miss Monday's preseason game. His next chance to get out there will come Wednesday against the Pistons.

Dosunmu (rest) is available for Monday's preseason game against the Knicks.

After resting Saturday, Dosunmu will be available off the bench at Madison Square Garden. Through two preseason games, he's averaging 7.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 15.0 minutes per contest.

McDaniels (rest) will start against the Knicks in Monday's preseason game.

McDaniels skipped Saturday's exhibition against the Heat for maintenance purposes, but he'll be back in action Monday evening. It'll be interesting to see if McDaniels can take a leap as a scorer this season with Julius Randle no longer around.

Edwards (rest) is in the starting lineup for Monday's preseason matchup with the Knicks.

Edwards is back after a one-game absence, but he'll likely still have his minutes limited, with this being the preseason. He's played well in his first two preseason games and looks comfortable sharing the floor with LaMelo Ball.
