Patrick Williams
F CHI
Williams (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Williams missed Tuesday's win over the Warriors with the ankle issue, and with Thursday's game coming as the first in a back-to-back set, it wouldn't be surprising to see Williams spend at least one more game on the sidelines. Managers can expect to get official confirmation on his status closer to Thursday's tip.

SG/F NYK
Hart (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game against Utah, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hart will get the night off Wednesday to nurse a sore left knee. His next chance to play will come Friday at Indiana. In the meantime, look for Landry Shamet and Jordan Clarkson to see an uptick in playing time.
OUTJalen Smith PF/C CHI Wed 3/11/26 7:44 PM
OUTJalen Smith
PF/C CHI
Smith (calf) is probable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Smith is on track to play Thursday, and managers can expect to get official confirmation on his status closer to tipoff. Thursday's match will be the first of a back-to-back set, though, so there's a chance Smith could get hit with a maintenance day Friday.

Sandro Mamukelashvili
PF/C TOR
Mamukelashvili will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mamukelashvili made a spot start in Toronto's most recent game, but he'll move aside now that Jakob Poeltl (illness) is healthy. Mamukelashvili is averaging 9.8 points and 4.5 rebounds per game this season as a reserve.
OUTCollin Sexton G/SF CHI Wed 3/11/26 7:40 PM
OUTCollin Sexton
G/SF CHI
Sexton (leg) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Sexton missed Tuesday's win over the Warriors, but there's a chance he'll be able to get back out there Thursday. If he is able to return, there will be fewer minutes available for Rob Dillingham.
OUTIsaac Okoro SG/SF CHI Wed 3/11/26 7:38 PM
OUTIsaac Okoro
SG/SF CHI

OUTAnfernee Simons
G CHI
Simons (wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lakers.

OUTKeyonte George G UTA Wed 3/11/26 7:20 PM
OUTKeyonte George
G UTA
George (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
George will play through an illness for a second straight game. The talented young guard played just 24 minutes last time out, so it's possible he'll have his minutes limited once again Wednesday. If that's the case, Isaiah Collier would likely see a bump in playing time.
