Williamson, limited to 30 games or fewer in four of six seasons, injured his back in a fall on March 19. He had posted his first two career triple-doubles in the eight games before the injury. Williamson will rehab with rest and treatment. McCollum injured his foot during a 40-point game vs. Detroit on March 23 and will also rehab with rest and treatment, per the team.
Duncan Robinson (Miami Heat) -
Has been ruled out of Wednesday's game with a back injury, Robinson has missed five consecutive games with the injury and it's unclear when he will be ready to make his return to the lineup for the Heat.
Andrew Wiggins (Miami Heat) -
Did not play in Monday's game against Washington with a hamstring injury. Heat Head Coach Erik Spoelstra said, "I don’t have any timetable on it. But he’s making some progress." Asked if Wiggins would be back by end of regular season, Spoelstra,"I don’t have an update."
Bennedict Mathurin (Indiana Pacers) -
Monday was the second straight game Mathurin missed due to left calf soreness. The Pacers upgraded him to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.
Gary Payton II (Golden State Warriors) -
Suffered a partially torn ligament in his left thumb during 112-86 loss to the Heat on 3/25 and will miss an indefinite period of time, a timeline for Payton's return likely won't be provided until the Warriors determine whether or not he will require surgery, there's a chance he could miss the rest of the regular season to be ready for the playoffs if the Warriors can get past the play-in
