Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He played on Saturday, but only lasted 20 minutes due to knee soreness.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (back) will be available for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons.
