  • He is officially listed as questionable, marking his first status upgrade since suffering a left calf strain on November 2.
  • The guard has missed the last 10 games during a multiweek recovery from the injury sustained against the Suns.
  • The team has not disclosed whether he will be on a minutes restriction upon returning to the lineup.
