Norman Powell Available Versus Sacramento

Los Angeles Clippers forward Norman Powell (ankle) will suit up on Sunday against the Sacramento Kings. The 30-year-old was questionable because of a sprained ankle.

Kenyon Martin Jr. Downgraded On Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kenyon Martin Jr. (ankle) is now out for Sunday's matchup with the Bucks.

LeBron James Questionable Versus Phoenix

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for the Sunday afternoon showdown with the Suns.

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (heel) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
