Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart is set to return from his ankle injury on Wednesday that kept him out for the last 11 games.

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (wrist) was a last-minute subtraction from the lineup on Monday and his status is up in the air for the second half of their back-to-back.

San Antonio Spurs guard Tre Jones (foot) returned on Saturday from a four-game absence but will now miss another game with a sore left foot.

San Antonio Spurs guard Tre Jones (foot) will miss his fourth consecutive game with left foot soreness.
