Joe went back to the locker room due to an apparent tailbone injury, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports.

Joe took a hard fall on a dunk attempt, appearing to injure his tailbone before exiting for the locker room. If he is unable to return, Kevin Huerter and Ebuka Okorie could see extra minutes.

Zubac (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game against the Nets.

Zubac left the game in the first quarter after rolling his left ankle and will not be able to return. Indiana plays the second half of the back-to-back set tomorrow against the Bucks, making it likely that Zubac will be forced to miss time. Jay Huff figures to see an expanded role while Zubac is out.

Wallace went back to the locker room with an apparent shoulder injury during Sunday's game against the Clippers, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman

Wallace drew an offensive foul on Isaiah Jackson and immediately went back to the locker room. He should be considered questionable to return.

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.
