Raul Neto To Miss Fourth Straight Game Wednesday
Utah Jazz point guard Raul Neto will remain sidelined for Wednesday’s contest versus the New Orleans Pelicans due to left hamstring tightness.

Brandon Ingram is Questionable on Wednesday
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Brandon Ingram (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Kyle Kuzma (ankle) has already been ruled out, so Ingram would be looking at heavier minutes if he's able to play on Wednesday. JaVale McGee would soak up the extra minutes if Ingram is unable to play.

Orlando Magic guard D.J. Augustin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Augustin suffered a right ankle sprain during Saturday's contest.
