DiVincenzo exited to the locker room in the first quarter of Saturday's Game 4 against the Nuggets due to an apparent right lower leg injury, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

DiVincenzo limped off the floor under his own power after suffering a non-contact injury just over one minute into Saturday's contest. If he's unable to return, Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland will likely help pick up the slack.

Jones won't start Saturday's Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Timberwolves.

With Aaron Gordon back from a one-game absence due to calf tightness, Jones will slide to the second unit. He totaled just 19 minutes off the bench across the first two games of this series, amassing five points and two rebounds in those appearances.

Brunson (ankle) returned to Saturday's Game 4 against the Hawks with 5:38 remaining in the third quarter, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Brunson turned his ankle earlier in the quarter and exited to the locker room. However, the star point guard returned to the bench shortly thereafter and appears to be good to go for the remainder of the contest after checking back in.

Wembanyama (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 in Portland.

Wembanyama sat out Friday's Game 3 win after suffering a concussion in Game 2, but there's a chance he will get back out there Sunday. If Wembanyama is cleared to play, Luke Kornet would likely head back to the second unit.

McLaughlin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Trail Blazers.

McLaughlin has missed the last three games due to a left ankle sprain but has a chance to return Sunday. However, he isn't guaranteed to see the floor even if he's cleared to play.

Brunson exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Saturday's Game 4 against the Hawks due to an apparent left ankle injury, Vincent Goodwill of ESPN.com reports.

Brunson checked out with 10:29 remaining in the third quarter and can be considered questionable to return until more information comes to light. If the star point guard is unable to return, Miles McBride and Jose Alvarado will likely help pick up the slack.

Gordon (calf) will play in Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Timberwolves on Saturday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Gordon will shed his questionable tag and return to action after missing Thursday's Game 3 loss due to left calf tightness. The veteran forward has averaged 12.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 33.0 minutes per contest over two first-round appearances.

Green totaled 26 points (8-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Saturday's 121-109 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Green has been struggling with his shot in this first-round series, converting just 39 percent of his field-goal attempts. The counting stats have been decent, but he'll need to be more efficient to help the Suns avoid elimination in Game 4 on Monday.

Brooks ended Saturday's 121-109 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 33 points (11-21 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds and one assist over 37 minutes.

Brooks has now dropped 30-plus points in back-to-back games, but the Suns still haven't been able to earn a victory in this first-round series against the defending champs. Collin Gillespie pulled down a game-high 10 rebounds to go with seven points (3-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five assists, one steal and one block over 33 minutes in the loss.

Booker closed with 16 points (6-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and seven assists over 39 minutes during Saturday's 121-109 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Booker briefly exited Saturday's game after tweaking his ankle when he got tripped up by Luguentz Dort, but he returned a few minutes later and didn't appear any worse for wear. He still struggled to find his shot with Dort draped all over him, and he'll need to be better if the Suns hope to avoid a four-game sweep in Monday's Game 4.
