Hayes is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies due to right shoulder soreness, Shreyas Laddha of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Hayes could be held out of the second leg of this back-to-back set after posting nine points, five rebounds, a steal and an assist in 19 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Lakers. If the big man joins Jusuf Nurkic (foot) on the inactive list, Kyle Filipowski and Mo Bamba would be candidates to see increased minutes off the bench.

Diallo (wrist) is out for Monday's game against the Warriors.

Diallo was initially doubtful for this contest, but the Nuggets will err on the side of caution. The defensive specialist will have a chance to return Wednesday against the Pelicans.

Suggs has been diagnosed with a mild bone bruise in his right knee and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Suggs suffered the injury during Sunday's win over the Knicks when his right knee buckled following a layup attempt. Fortunately, further testing revealed no major structural damage, though the 25-year-old will miss at least two weeks before being re-evaluated. Anthony Black and Jase Richardson could see increased opportunities in Orlando's backcourt during Suggs' absence.

Nembhard (neck) is questionable for Monday's game against the Bucks.

Nembhard tallied 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Indiana's win over Brooklyn on Sunday, but it appears he picked up a neck issue in the process. If he's unable to suit up for the second half of the Pacers' back-to-back set, Quenton Jackson and Jalen Slawson would likely see increased playing time.

Ighodaro (oblique) is out for Monday's matchup with the Thunder.

Ighodaro remains sidelined with an oblique strain. Khaman Maluach should continue to start at center for the Suns and offer enhanced fantasy value as long as Ighodaro is out.

Topic (back) is off the injury report for Monday's game versus the Suns.

Topic is ready to make his season debut following offseason back surgery. His return comes at an opportune juncture for the Thunder, as Topic helps fortify the team's backcourt depth after Oklahoma City lost Jalen Williams to a serious ankle injury Sunday.

Sorber (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Suns.

Sorber is no longer on the injury report for the Thunder. With how impressive Aday Mara has been in limited run, Sorber is unlikely to crack the rotation right away.

McConnell (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Bucks.

McConnell's 2026-27 debut will have to wait at least one more game as he continues battling a hamstring strain. His next opportunity to suit up will be against the 76ers on Wednesday.

Williams (wrist) is available for Monday's game against the Suns.

Williams left Sunday's game early with wrist soreness, but he's not listed on the injury report for the second leg of this back-to-back set. He's likely to reprise his role as the backup center.

Wallace (shoulder) is out for Monday's game versus the Suns.

The injury is being labeled as shoulder soreness for Wallace, who left Sunday's game against the Clippers early. Jared McCain and Ajay Mitchell figure to see expanded roles with Wallace out, while Alex Caruso is also in the mix for more playing time.
