Los Angeles Lakers All-Stars Anthony Davis (knee) and LeBron James (ankle) will play in the second leg of a back-to-back on Wednesday versus Washington.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Patrick Beverley (ankle) will sit out Wednesday's matchup against Memphis.

Marcus Sasser Questionable For Wednesday's Matchup
Detroit Pistons point guard Marcus Sasser (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against Atlanta. The rookie could be out for a third consecutive game with an upper respiratory illness.

Washington Wizards point guard Tyus Jones (back) will remain out of the lineup against Milwaukee on Tuesday. This will mark his 10th consecutive absence due to a back problem.

Gary Trent Jr. Rested Against Lakers
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Gary Trent Jr. (rest) will get the night off on Tuesday against the Lakers. He'll be in street clothes as the team kicks off a back-to-back.

Gabe Vincent Won't Play On Tuesday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (knee) will sit out Tuesday's action against the Raptors.

Atlanta Hawks guard Kobe Bufkin (toe) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Monday versus Chicago. He will be back in action after missing 14 games with a sprained big toe.
