Miami Heat News

Confirmed Lineup: Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Nikola Jovic, Bam Adebayo

• Kyle Lowry (hand) — Available

• Tyler Herro (shoulder) — In

• Kevin Love (knee) — Out

• Jimmy Butler (toe) — Out

• Dru Smith (knee) — Out for season

Miami has been plagued by injuries recently, and they could be without multiple starters again. Butler is the team's third-highest scorer but is unlikely to play, while Herro's availability is also in question. If Herro can suit up, he will likely have plenty of opportunities on the offensive end. He averages a team-high 19.4 field goal attempts per game sans Butler this season and attempted more than 20 shots in each of his previous two appearances without Butler. However, the real matchup advantage in this game is Adebayo against the Hornets' frontcourt, as Charlotte allows the most points per game (27.5) and second-most rebounds per game (17.6) to centers this season.

Los Angeles Clippers News

Confirmed Lineup: James Harden, Terance Mann, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Daniel Theis

• Ivica Zubac (calf) — Out

• Moussa Diabate (hand) — Injured

Minnesota Timberwolves News

Confirmed Lineup: Mike Conley, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Karl-Anthony Towns, Rudy Gobert

• Anthony Edwards (knee) — In

• Jaylen Clark (Achilles) — Injured

The Timberwolves have won two of their three games played sans Edwards this season, and they could ultimately be without him again against the Clippers. If he is sidelined, usage will likely funnel to Towns, who has seen a +3.7% usage rate increase in games without Edwards. Minnesota projects to be much more competitive in this matchup if Edwards plays, considering they're facing a Clippers team that has won 17 of its last 20 contests and has the league's fifth-best Net Rating (+5.5).

Phoenix Suns News

Confirmed Lineup: Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, Grayson Allen, Kevin Durant, Jusuf Nurkic

• Bol Bol (foot) — Out

• Drew Eubanks (illness) — Not on injury report

• Damion Lee (knee) — Injured

Portland Trail Blazers News

Confirmed Lineup: Scoot Henderson, Anfernee Simons, Toumani Camara, Jabari Walker, Duop Reath

• Deandre Ayton (knee) — Out

• Jerami Grant (illness) — Out

• Matisse Thybulle (illness) — Out

• Malcolm Brogdon (adductor) — Out

• Ibou Badji (hip) — Out

• Shaedon Sharpe (adductor) — Out

• Moses Brown (wrist) — Injured

• Robert Williams (knee) — Out for season

Ayton has missed the previous 10 outings but has a chance to make his return on Sunday. Since he went down, the Blazers have posted the league's worst Offensive Rating (102.7) and Net Rating (-18.0). They've lost seven of those 10 games. Portland will face the Suns, who are coming off an 18-point victory in their last outing. The last time these teams met, Phoenix won and held the Blazers to 88 points.
