Memphis Grizzlies guard Scotty Pippen Jr. (back) will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Golden State Warriors. The 24-year-old missed Sunday's action against the Dallas Mavericks due to low back soreness, but Memphis has not included Pippen Jr. on the injury report for Tuesday. Pippen Jr. finished the regular season strongly and should be full of confidence ahead of the postseason, having averaged 13.2 points and 4.2 assists for the month. Golden State boasts the fifth-best defensive record in the league against opposing benches, so Pippen Jr.'s form will receive a stern test on Tuesday night.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (back) is not listed on the injury report for Tuesday's play-in game against the Golden State Warriors. Due to a back issue, Jackson Jr. did not play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Dallas Mavericks, joining a host of key players on the sidelines. Memphis will have everyone back in the lineup on Tuesday as the team aims to return to the playoffs after a one-year absence. The matchup against the Warriors has suited Jackson Jr. this season, as he has raised his averages to 23.5 points and 7.0 rebounds against them.

Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams (knee) is progressing well and "hitting milestones." The 26-year-old saw his 2024-25 campaign come to an end on Nov. 23, when he suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during a game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Before the injury, Williams averaged 10.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.1 steals over 29.9 minutes per game. Williams showed that he can make a fantasy impact as a member of the Hornets, but it remains to be seen whether he will reach similar performance levels next season. After undergoing surgery in December, Williams was ruled out for 9-12 months, meaning he might not return to action before 2026.

Golden State Warriors forward Moses Moody (back) is now questionable for Tuesday's Play-In game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 24-year-old has started 34 games for the Warriors this season. Unfortunately, he popped up on the Injury report because of back spasms, putting his availability in jeopardy. If Moody can't suit up, Buddy Hield, averaging 12.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 22 starts during the 2024-25 campaign, will likely slide into the starting lineup.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's Play-In showdown with the Orlando Magic. The former Oklahoma Sooner was listed as probable due to the Achilles Tendinitis that plagued him for most of the 2024-25 campaign. However, he'll be out there for the Southeast Division matchup. Young has faced Orlando three times this season, averaging 28.3 points, 8.0 assists, and 26.7% shooting from deep.
