Washington (elbow) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Bulls.

Washington was listed as doubtful, although his confirmed absence isn't a surprise, considering he missed the last three games while appearing in only one of Dallas' previous seven contests. With Naji Marshall (hip) and Caleb Martin (foot) also unavailable, Khris Middleton and Klay Thompson are expected to receive expanded roles.

Martin (heel) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Chicago.

Martin hasn't played since the 130-120 win over the Cavaliers on March 15, so his absence Sunday officially marks the end of his season. With Naji Marshall (hip) and P.J. Washington (elbow) also unavailable, Khris Middleton and Klay Thompson are in line for enhanced roles.

Marshall (hip) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Chicago.

Marshall won't play in Sunday's contest against Chicago, marking his third consecutive absence and the end of his 2025-26 campaign. Without him, Klay Thompson and Khris Middleton are in line to see more minutes while receiving additional scoring opportunities.

Jokic (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.

While the rest of Denver's usual starters sit out Sunday's regular-season finale, Jokic will suit up in an effort to reach the 65-game threshold for end-of-season awards. Head coach David Adelman said pregame that the superstar will play the first half as usual before being evaluated ahead of the second half, per Matt Guzman of SI.com.

Krejci (calf) is listed as available for Sunday's game against Sacramento, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portlandreports.

Krejci has missed Portland's last 13 games. While he'll avoid another absence, he will operate under a minutes limit.

Thybulle (ankle) is good to go for Sunday's game versus Sacramento, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Thybulle was being listed as probable, and now we have official confirmation that he'll be out there. Thybulle is averaging 5.8 points, 1.2 triples and 2.1 steals per game this season.

Wembanyama (ribs) is out for Sunday's game against Denver, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Wembanyama returned from a one-game absence for Friday's 139-120 win over the Mavericks. However, since he reached the 65-game threshold for awards eligibility, he can take the night off to rest up for the postseason. With Luke Kornet (shoulder) also out, Mason Plumlee or Kelly Olynyk could get the start at the five.

Vassell (ribs) is available for Sunday's game against Denver, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Vassell will shed his questionable tag due to right ribcage soreness and suit up in San Antonio's regular-season finale. The 25-year-old swingman has averaged 11.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 30.7 minutes per game across six outings in April.

Green (back) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.

Green will get the night off before presumably returning for the Play-In Tournament. Without Green in the equation, De'Anthony Melton may move back into the starting lineup.

Diawara is starting Sunday against the Hornets.

Diawara is getting the spot start with New York resting most of its usual starters, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Jose Alvarado, Mikal Bridges, Miles McBride and Ariel Hukporti. As a starter this season, Diawara has posted averages of 6.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 triples per contest.
