Reed will start Sunday's game against the 76ers, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Reed will enter the starting five due to Jalen Duren (hamstring) being out. Reed performed well during Friday's win over the Heat, logging 19 points and 11 rebounds in 26 minutes off the bench.

Jenkins will start Sunday's game against the 76ers, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.

Jenkins gets the start due to Ausar Thompson (ankle) being out. Jenkins holds averages of 7.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 26.0 minutes per contest across two appearances this season.

Caldwell-Pope will start Sunday's game against the Pistons, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Caldwell-Pope enters the starting lineup due to VJ Edgecombe (abdomen) being out. In three appearances, Caldwell-Pope has averaged 8.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 26.3 minutes per contest while shooting 53.8 percent from three.

Murray (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

With Murray unavailable, Precious Achiuwa could get the start and De'Andre Hunter could get a bump in minutes. There will also be more opportunity for Daeqwon Plowden. Murray's next chance to play will come Tuesday in San Antonio.

Edgecombe (abdomen) is out for Sunday's game against the Pistons, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Edgecombe sustained an abdominal contusion during Saturday's game against the Bucks, and although he was able to return, he has been ruled out for Sunday's game due to the injury. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Anfernee Simons figure to see larger roles in his absence.

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

Diallo logged 22 minutes in the season opener against the Thunder on Thursday, but now he's at risk of missing a second consecutive contest due to a right wrist sprain. If that's the case, Bryce Hopkins and Cam Whitmore would continue to see extra minutes off the bench.

Johnson (ankle) is doubtful to play Monday against the Warriors.

Johnson is on track to miss his second straight game Monday, which could result in another start for Bryce Hopkins and additional minutes for Trevon Brazile. With Johnson looking unlikely for Monday, it would be wise to bench him in weekly fantasy formats.

Richardson is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Knicks, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.

Richardson will make his first start of the season Sunday due to the absence of Paolo Banchero (ankle), and he'll start in the backcourt alongside Jalen Suggs, with Desmond Bane and Franz Wagner at the three and four, respectively. Richardson is averaging 4.0 points and 3.0 assists on 14.0 minutes per game in two bench appearances this season.

Walter will start Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

Walter gets the start due to Kawhi Leonard (knee) being out. In two games this season, Walter has averaged 8.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.5 steals in 23.5 minutes per contest.

Jones (hamstring) is out for Monday's matchup with the Warriors.

This will be Jones' third consecutive game on the inactive list, and it's unclear if he's close to getting back to the court. His next chance to play will come Wednesday in New Orleans.
