Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams remain out for the third straight game, leaving the Thunder down two starters in Friday's matchup. Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins have filled in as starters. The usage has been spread out with SGA sidelined, with no player reaching 15 field goal attempts in the last two contests. Josh Giddey has continued to see an elevated role over the previous six games.

Wizards-Blazers feature two teams with nothing to play for, and the injury reports for each team align with the tank. Jordan Poole should continue to consume majority of the team's usage. Tristan Vukcevic could draw his second straight start after scoring double-digit points in each of the last two contests.

• Jaylen Brown (hand) — Out

• Derrick White (back) — Out

• Jaden Springer (knee) — Out

• JD Davison (ankle) — Not on injury report

The Celtics have clinched home court advantage through the playoffs and could rest key starters down the stretch of the regular season. Brown is still dealing with a sprained hand but was able to suit up last game, while White's back injury is new. Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard are candidates to see increased minutes, with more offense being available for Jayson Tatum.

• Tyler Herro (foot) — Available

• Terry Rozier (knee) — Available

• Duncan Robinson (back) — Available

• Josh Richardson (shoulder) — Out for season

Herro is traveling with the Heat for the current three-game road trip and reportedly has a chance to return to the lineup as early as Friday. He has been sidelined for 20 games due to a right foot injury. After missing the postseason last year with a broken hand, this is encouraging news for the Heat less than two weeks out of the playoffs.

It's possible Herro will be limited in his first game back after a lengthy absence. Prior to the injury, he was averaging a career-high 20.8 points per game.

Houston Rockets News

Confirmed Lineup: Fred VanVleet, Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Jabari Smith Jr., Jeff Green

• Amen Thompson (leg) — Out

Confirmed Lineup: Marcus Sasser, Jaden Ivey, Troy Brown Jr., Tosan Evbuomwan, Jalen Duren

• Cade Cunningham (injury management) — Out

• Simone Fontecchio (toe) — Out

• Ausar Thompson (blood clot) — Out for season

• Isaiah Stewart (hamstring) — Out for season

• Quentin Grimes (knee) — Out for season

• Stanley Umude (ankle) — Out for season

Cunningham remains out due to injury management as the Pistons have nothing to play for and also play in the first leg of a back-to-back. He has now missed five of the last 10 games.

Marcus Sasser replaced Cunningham in the starting lineup but the start was Malachi Flynn, who erupted for 50 points in 34 minutes off the bench. Flynn made 18 of 25 field goal attempts while contributing six rebounds and five assists. He'll have another opportunity to showcase his upside with Cunningham out.

Memphis Grizzlies News

Confirmed Lineup: Scotty Pippen Jr., Jordan Goodwin, Jake LaRavia, GG Jackson, Trey Jemison

• Jaren Jackson Jr. (quad) — Out

• Luke Kennard (knee) — Out

• Marcus Smart (finger) — Injured

• Vince Williams (knee) — Injured

• Derrick Rose (back, groin) — Injured

• Ziaire Williams (hip, back) — Injured

• Ja Morant (shoulder) — Out for season

The Grizzlies have once again filled up the injury report, listing 12 players ahead of Friday's matchup. With nothing to play for, Desmond Bane is sitting for the sixth straight game. The team will also be without starters Jaren Jackson Jr., Luke Kennard, and Santi Aldama. Friday's starting lineup will be the 48th different lineup of the season. Trey Jemison, Lamar Stevens, and Lake LaRavia will see increased roles.

Toronto Raptors News

Confirmed Lineup: Immanuel Quickley, Gary Trent Jr., Ochai Agbaji, RJ Barrett, Kelly Olynyk

• Bruce Brown (knee) — Out

Milwaukee Bucks News

Confirmed Lineup: Damian Lillard, Malik Beasley, Khris Middleton, Jae Crowder, Brook Lopez

• Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) — Out

• Damian Lillard (adductor) — In

• Khris Middleton (injury management) — Available

• Patrick Beverley (ankle) — Out

• MarJon Beauchamp (ankle) — Out

• Jaylin Galloway (ankle) — Out

Antetokounmpo has been playing through his left hamstring injury lately but is now listed questionable to play Friday. He recently expanded on the importance of playing through the injury with the playoffs less than two weeks ago.

Lillard has a chance to return from a three-game absence, and could immediately step into a heavy offensive role if Antetokounmpo is unable to suit up. It would make sense for the Bucks to not rush Lillard back and give Antetokounmpo time off facing the Raptors, but the team is coming off back-to-back losses to the Grizzlies and Wizards.

San Antonio Spurs News

Confirmed Lineup: Tre Jones, Malaki Branham, Julian Champagnie, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Victor Wembanyama

• Keldon Johnson (foot) — Out

• Dominick Barlow (knee) — Out

• Cedi Osman (ankle) — Out

• Devin Vassell (foot) — Out for season

• Jeremy Sochan (ankle) — Out for season

• Charles Bassey (knee) — Out for season

New Orleans Pelicans News

Confirmed Lineup: CJ McCollum, Herb Jones, Dyson Daniels, Trey Murphy III, Jonas Valanciunas

• Zion Williamson (finger) — Out

• Jose Alvarado (oblique) — Out

• Brandon Ingram (knee) — Injured

Williamson received positive news with a negative X-ray on his injured finger and has been labeled day-to-day. He suffered the injury on Wednesday and was unable to return for the final seven-plus minutes of the fourth quarter. The Pelicans are fortunate that the injury wasn't worse with Brandon Ingram (knee) already sidelined with the playoffs just 10 days away.

CJ McCollum could see a larger offensive role if Williamson is unable to suit up with Naji Marshall a candidate to enter the starting lineup.

Golden State Warriors News

Confirmed Lineup: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Moses Moody, Draymond Green, Trayce Jackson-Davis

• Andrew Wiggins (ankle) — Out

Phoenix Suns News

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

• Jusuf Nurkic (calf) — Available

• Grayson Allen (hip) — In

• Damion Lee (knee) — Injured

Nurkic is dealing with a sore calf and is questionable to play Friday. However, the team will likely get Grayson Allen back after a one-game absence. The Suns are currently holding onto the 6 Seed with plenty to play for down the stretch of the season. Drew Eubanks would be in line for a spot start if Nurkic is downgraded, with usage continuing to funnel through the Big 3.

Utah Jazz News
