Adebayo, Lowry, and Oladipo could rest against the Rockets, according to Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel.

Butler has posted a +9.0% assist rate differential with Lowry and Adebayo off the floor this season. He and Herro could generate a majority of the offense against a Rockets team that ranks 26th in defensive rating (114.8) if Adebayo and Lowry are out.

Antetokounmpo registered a stratospheric 50.7% usage rate and led the Bucks with five assists in Holiday's absence Tuesday. Coach Budenholzer opted to play Bobby Portis for 32.0 minutes in larger lineups, which should again be an option against the Grizzlies.

• Brandon Ingram (toe) — Injured

• Jose Alvarado (rib) — Out

The Pelicans scored 60 points in the paint but shot 14.8% from three in their 121-100 road loss to Utah on Tuesday. Valanciunas (33.3%), Williamson (32.9%), and McCollum (25.9%) led the starting group in usage, but they didn't play in the fourth quarter of a blowout loss.

Utah Jazz News

Confirmed Lineup: Mike Conley, Jordan Clarkson, Lauri Markkanen, Jarred Vanderbilt, Kelly Olynyk

• Simone Fontecchio (ankle) — Out

• Collin Sexton (hamstring) — Injured

Utah has allowed opponents to score the third-most fast break points per game in the league (16.3) and has posted the lowest defensive rebounding rate (68.6%) this season. The Jazz secured 72.7% of defensive rebounds against the Pelicans and limited them to 10 points in transition in their 121-100 home win Tuesday.

• Devin Booker (hamstring) — Available

• Deandre Ayton (ankle) — Out

• Cam Payne (foot) — Out

• Duane Washington Jr. (hip) — Out

• Cam Johnson (knee) — Injured

Bismack Biyombo likely starts if Ayton is out, and his usage is 8.4% lower than Ayton's 22.1% clip. Bridges would figure to lead the Suns in usage with Paul, Damion Lee, and Landry Shamet creating a majority of the offense if Booker is ruled out.
