The Jazz are playing on the second leg of a back-to-back set, and they are a combined 1-4 in those situations with a dreadful 107.5 Offensive Rating. Coach Hardy mentioned after Wednesday's loss that Markkanen is healthy after missing time with a strained hamstring but playing on zero days rest is a different story.

Detroit Pistons News

New Orleans Pelicans News

Confirmed Lineup: CJ McCollum, Herb Jones, Brandon Ingram, Trey Murphy III, Jonas Valanciunas

• Zion Williamson (illness) — Out

• Jonas Valanciunas (illness) — Available

• Herb Jones (illness) — Available

• Cody Zeller (ankle) — Out

• Matt Ryan (elbow) — Injured

• Larry Nance Jr. (rib) — Injured

Williamson was limited to 25 minutes the previous game after committing three fouls in the first half, and he was questionable heading into that game because of an illness. Valanciunas has played every game this season, and Jones has played in 18 straight matches.

The usage rates for Ingram and McCollum have increased by an additional 5.0% in games Williamson has missed. When Williamson and Valanciunas have been off the court, Ingram has led the team with a 36.8% usage rate. However, since many of the minutes occurred when McCollum was sidelined due to a collapsed lung, they may not be reflective of perceived roles if Valanciunas and Williamson can’t play.

Jones will likely be the primary defender on Donovan Mitchell if both are available. No Jones would be a boon for Mitchell, who has ranked second on the Cavs with a 26.0% usage rate since Garland underwent jaw surgery. His substandard usage is offset by his 43.1 minutes per game in which he’s attempted a team-high 48 attempts.

Cleveland Cavaliers News

Confirmed Lineup: Craig Porter Jr., Max Strus, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade, Jarrett Allen

• Donovan Mitchell (illness) — Out

• Keldon Johnson (back) — Available

• Charles Bassey (knee) — Out for season

The second game Wembanyama started as the primary center was against the Bulls, and he recorded 21 points and 20 rebounds. When Zach Collins and Bassey have been off the court, Wembanyama has led the Spurs with a +2.1% rebound rate differential. He has led the league with a 34.1% defensive rebound rate since Collins moved to a bench role, up from 25.1% in the first 19 games.

The Pacers are playing their fifth game in seven nights, and because of their advancement to the IST championship game, they are playing for the ninth time in 15 days with seven of those contests coming on the road.

Antetokounmpo has missed one game this season. Andre Jackson Jr. started that game but Bobby Portis played 30 minutes off the bench. When Antetokounmpo has been off the court, Middleton has led the team with a +9.3% usage rate differential. He's played at least 28 minutes in five straight games, and it appears his minutes are no longer restricted. He said after Sunday's game that he feels great as his playing time has increased.
