Queta (thumb) is available for Sunday's game in Charlotte, Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com reports.

Queta will power through the thumb issue and should see his usual minutes as a starter Sunday. Queta is averaging 9.8 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game this season.

Slawson will start in Sunday's game against the Heat, according to Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star.

Kobe Brown was considered the favorite to start in place of Jarace Walker (back). However, Slawson will be the one to take Walker's spot. In two starts this season, Slawson is averaging 10.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.5 steals across 32.0 minutes.

Jackson is in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup with Miami, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Andrew Nembhard, Ethan Thompson, Jalen Slawson and Pascal Siakam will join Jackson in the first unit for Sunday's game. As a starter this season, Jackson owns averages of 9.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.1 triples per contest.

Thompson is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Heat on Sunday, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Thompson will make his first NBA appearance since March 12, when he also started against the Suns and logged 11 points, two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 38 minutes. He'll join Andrew Nembhard, Quenton Jackson, Jalen Slawson and Pascal Siakam in the starting lineup for Sunday's contest.

Huff is not in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Heat on Sunday, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Huff has started in each of the Pacers' last three games, but he will come off the bench for Sunday's contest while Indiana rolls with a starting five of Andrew Nembhard, Quenton Jackson, Ethan Thompson, Jalen Slawson and Pascal Siakam. Huff came off the bench in a six-game span in mid-March and averaged 9.7 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.3 threes and 1.5 blocks over 18.5 minutes per game.

Trail Blazers interim head coach Tiago Splitter said Williams (back) is expected to be available for Sunday's game against the Wizards, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Williams is officially listed as questionable, but assuming he makes it through his pregame routine no worse for the wear, he should be cleared to back up Donovan Clingan on Sunday. Over his 10 appearances thus far in March, Williams is averaging 8.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.6 blocks in 18.8 minutes per game while shooting 65 percent from the field.

Murray-Boyles (back) is available for Sunday's game against Orlando, according to Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca.

Murray-Boyles prematurely exited Friday's 119-106 win over New Orleans, ending his night after logging only 12 minutes. He was in danger of missing the contest against the Magic because of lower-back spasms. Fortunately, the 20-year-old is good to go. Murray-Boyles has averaged 9.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 2.3 blocks and 0.7 steals across 17.7 minutes in March (three games). However, he could be more productive if RJ Barrett (shoulder) isn't available.

Martin (heel) is doubtful for Monday's game versus Minnesota.

Martin is on track to sit out his seventh straight game, and his minutes will continue to be divvied up among Klay Thompson and Khris Middleton. Check back closer to Monday's tipoff for official word on Martin's status.

Jackson-Davis (knee) is available for Sunday's game versus the Magic, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Jackson-Davis is set to return after a one-game absence, though he remains a fringe piece in Toronto's rotation. Over the past three games, he's logged just 17 total minutes, producing a total of three points, two rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two turnovers.

Larsson is in the Heat's starting lineup against the Pacers on Sunday.

Larsson has come off the bench in each of the Heat's last two games, but the second-year pro will return to the starting lineup for Sunday's game due to the absence of Norman Powell (illness/back). Larsson started in 29 straight games from mid-January to late March, and over that span he averaged 12.87 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 0.8 steals over 29.6 minutes per game.
