Houston Rockets forward/center Jabari Smith Jr. (groin) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He is attempting to overcome left groin soreness before tip-off. If Smith Jr. is unable to play, Tari Eason will likely receive additional minutes, with Jae'Sean Tate or Cam Whitmore possibly re-entering the rotation. Meanwhile, if Smith Jr. gets the green light to play, he may see increased usage in the frontcourt since Alperen Sengun (back) is also questionable for the game, and his absence would open up significant minutes at the center position.

Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (back) is considered questionable for Wednesday's clash against the Los Angeles Clippers. The big man from Turkey is dealing with soreness in his lower back and might be absent from the lineup for only the fifth time this season. Steven Adams and Jock Landale are likely to see increased usage if Sengun is ruled out for the game. Jabari Smith Jr. (groin) can also fill minutes at center, but he isn't at 100 percent either and has joined Sengun on the injury report with a questionable designation.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Quentin Grimes (back) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. He could be removed from the lineup due to a sore back. Since moving to Philadelphia, Grimes has taken his game to the next level, averaging 26.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 1.8 steals since the beginning of March. Lonnie Walker IV and Ricky Council IV may be required to contribute significantly to the offense in Wednesday's game, particularly with Justin Edwards (ribs) also listed as questionable.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) is considered doubtful for Wednesday's matchup against the Sacramento Kings. He will likely sit out a sixth consecutive game as the Nuggets hit the court for the first time since the stunning firing of head coach Michael Malone. It will be interesting to see what adjustments interim head coach David Adelman makes to the lineup and rotation. Russell Westbrook has filled in for Murray in the starting unit for most of the season, but he has run with the starters only once in the last five games that Murray has missed. Jalen Pickett has recently seen increased usage in the first unit, yet he has been unproductive on most nights.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) will rejoin the lineup on Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. The two-time Olympic champion was unavailable on Monday night against the Philadelphia 76ers due to back spasms. Haywood Highsmith received the starting nod and is likely to move back into the second unit for Wednesday's matchup. The Bulls are weak defensively, and Adebayo has not had any problems exploiting their shortcomings, averaging 22.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists in the matchup this season. On Wednesday, Adebayo might have increased offensive usage, as Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) is listed as questionable and may miss another game.
