Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (ankle) will return to the starting five for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody will move into the starting five for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He'll be taking the place of Jordan Poole who is sidelined due to protocols.
