Spencer Jones - Questionable for Sunday Jones is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota due to a right shoulder strain.
Impact Jones managed to shed his questionable tag ahead of Friday's overtime loss to the Thunder, recording a foul in two minutes of action. He's now is danger of missing the front end of this back-to-back set due to the shoulder injury, and if he's ultimately ruled out, Tim Hardaway and Bruce Brown would be candidates to see a slight uptick in playing time. Jones has averaged 4.0 points and 4.2 rebounds across 17.4 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Nuggets fans are starting to realize the MVP may be a one-horse race Jokic and the Nuggets have been terrible in the clutch, potentially costing him a shot at the postseason award.

Aaron Gordon - Out for Sunday Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact Gordon will miss a 15th consecutive contest as he continues to recover from a right hamstring strain. While Friday was initially targeted as the earliest possible return date, the team has not yet provided an updated timeline after announcing on Jan. 29 that the forward would be re-evaluated in 4-to-6 weeks.

Cameron Johnson - Probable for Sunday Johnson (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Impact Johnson is dealing with right ankle inflammation but is still likely to suit up in the front end of this back-to-back set. The 29-year-old forward has appeared in eight straight games, averaging 11.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 32.5 minutes per contest during that span.

Branden Carlson - Out for Sunday Carlson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks
Impact Carlson will miss a third consecutive contest after exiting Wednesday's game against the Pistons due to low back soreness. The second-year center has struggled with back issues recently, as he also missed the final game before the All-Star break due to spasms in the same area. With Carlson sidelined, Oklahoma City will continue to lean on Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein to handle the bulk of the minutes in the frontcourt.

Ajay Mitchell - Remains out for Sunday Mitchell (abdomen/ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Dallas.
Impact Mitchell hasn't played since Jan. 21 due to an abdominal strain and a left ankle sprain. He's without a clear timeline for a return and should be considered doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Bulls until the Thunder provide an update.
