- Isaac Okoro (foot sprain) will miss the Cavs’ contest against the Knicks and Matthew Dellavedova is out indefinitely with a concussion.

- Lauri Markkanen (calf) is questionable for the Bulls’ contest against the Wizards.
- Russell Westbrook is expected back after being held out of Washington’s game on Sunday.

- Marcus Morris won’t play for the Clippers against the Wolves tonight, per the team. He’s dealing with a sore right knee.
