Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (leg) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Indiana Pacers centers Isaiah Jackson (ankle) and Goga Bitadze (foot) are listed as probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Returning On Thursday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) will make his return to the court on Thursday against the Phoenix Suns.
