Sims (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Sims is dealing with a right knee issue and won't suit up Tuesday. His next opportunity to play will come Thursday in Miami. With Bobby Portis (back) also sidelined, Pete Nance, Kyle Kuzma and Ousmane Dieng are candidates to see increased minutes Tuesday.

Allen (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

Allen was a late addition to the injury report Sunday, and despite being listed as probable, he sat out during the win over Charlotte, which was surprising after he totaled 62 minutes during a back-to-back set earlier in the week. While Allen is cleared to play Tuesday, it's possible he sits out either Thursday in Indiana or Friday in Toronto as he continues to manage a knee issue.

Portis (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Portis was a late addition to Tuesday's injury report due to a back contusion, and the injury is severe enough for the veteran big man to sit out of Tuesday's contest. With Jericho Sims (knee) also out, the Bucks will lean more heavily on Kyle Kuzma and Pete Nance to provide depth behind Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner.

Reese (two-way) is listed out for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Reese has played at least 26 minutes in each of the Wizards' last four contests and has made three starts during that stretch, but because he's signed to a two-way contract, he has limited availability for the rest of the season. With the Wizards choosing to hold Reese out Tuesday, he'll be eligible to suit up for nine of the team's remaining 18 contests.

Hendricks will start Tuesday's game against the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks will return from a one-game absence due to thumb soreness and enter the starting lineup, pushing GG Jackson to the bench. Over two starts for Memphis, Hendricks has averaged 6.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 24.5 minutes per tilt.

Black (two-way) is listed out for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Black has played 30-plus minutes in each of the Wizards' last three games, but because he's signed to a two-way contract, he has limited availability for the rest of the season. With the Wizards choosing to hold Black out Tuesday, he'll be eligible to suit up for 11 of the team's remaining 18 contests.

Coward is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Coward was cleared to play Tuesday after missing Monday's loss against the Nets due to a knee injury, and the rookie first-rounder will start for Memphis in his return. In his last outing against the Clippers on Saturday, Coward played 22 minutes and finished with 15 points, seven rebounds, one block and two three-pointers (on eight attempts).

Spencer is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Ty Jerome (calf) is back in the starting five for the Grizzlies on Tuesday, forcing Spencer to the second unit. Spencer has averaged 12.3 points, 4.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 22.9 minutes per tilt in his last six games off the bench.

Jackson is not in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jackson has started in each of the Grizzlies' last eight games (and 14 of the last 15 contests). However, the third-year pro will come off the bench for Tuesday's contest while Taylor Hendricks enters the starting five. Since the All-Star break, Jackson has averaged 17.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.4 threes and 1.3 blocks over 25.5 minutes per game.

Small is not in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Grizzlies will roll with a starting five of Ty Jerome, Cedric Coward, Jaylen Wells, Taylor Hendricks and Olivier-Maxence Prosper for Tuesday's interconference clash. Small has started in four of his last six outings, and over that span he has averaged 10.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.3 threes and 1.3 steals over 25.5 minutes per game.
