Keyonte George - Still out Wednesday George (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact George will miss a fourth straight game due to a sore left foot. He is traveling with the team and participating in on-court activities, so he can be considered questionable, at best, for Thursday's matchup in Detroit. Jordan Clarkson (thigh) also remains out, so Talen Horton-Tucker and Collin Sexton should start again in the backcourt.

Ben Simmons - Remains out Simmons (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Cameron Johnson - Struggles with shot in loss Johnson notched seven points (2-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 27 minutes during Monday's 125-108 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Johnson scored in single digits for just the third time this season. Coming into the contest, he averaged 14.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 29.2 minutes per game over 17 appearances since returning to action following a multi-week absence due to injury. Some fantasy managers were expecting a breakout season for the sharpshooter in his first full campaign with Brooklyn, but that hasn't been the case yet, though the injury to begin the season -- plus the emergence of Cam Thomas -- may be playing a part in his modest role thus far.
