Nikola Vucevic (back) is unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 34-year-old big man will miss the first leg of a back-to-back set due to soreness in his right calf. Vucevic finished with 16 points, 11 rebounds, four assists and two steals across 33 minutes in his last appearance on Sunday versus the Hornets. With Vucevic on the shelf,
Zach Collins will likely soak up most of the minutes available at center during tonight's contest.

Nikola Vucevic (back) will play in Thursday's clash against the Los Angeles Lakers after overcoming a questionable designation. It has been a solid campaign for Vucevic, although he has lost some momentum after spending a few weeks on the sidelines due to a calf injury. Since returning to action, Vucevic has averaged 14.5 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in 28.0 minutes. He recorded a 12-12-5 line in last week's encounter with the Lakers.

Nikola Vucevic (back) may have to come out of the lineup on Thursday against the Los Angeles Lakers after the team listed him as questionable for the game. After missing time due to a calf injury, Vucevic has made eight consecutive appearances, but he could be sidelined again as he deals with a mid-back strain.
Zach Collins had an impressive stint as a starter while Vucevic was recovering from his calf injury earlier this month.
Jalen Smith will also be in line for more usage if Vucevic ends up back on the shelf.

Nikola Vucevic (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. Vucevic will miss his seventh game in a row due to a right calf strain. He was listed as doubtful coming into this game and his timetable to return to the court is unclear.
Zach Collins and
Matas Buzelis should continue seeing increased playing time while Vucevic is out. Both players are worth a look as streaming options right now. Collins has been on a hot streak lately with three double-doubles over his last five games.
