Three games into his NBA comeback, Lonzo Ball is injured again. Thankfully, the injury's not to his problematic left knee that required three operations and forced him to miss two-plus seasons.
Randle checked back into Tuesday's game versus the Mavericks with 9:19 left in the fourth quarter after heading to the locker room with 1:51 remaining in the third quarter.
Bulls guard Lonzo Ball sprained his right wrist in the first quarter Monday night at Memphis and will be reevaluated in 10 days, the team announced Tuesday.
Ball has another injury to worry about now. He's been limited while easing his way back in from knee surgery and will now have to monitor his right wrist as well. There hasn't been a sign that he'll miss an extended period of time, though.
Sexton is being benched after scoring 23 points on 9-of-11 shooting in his last game. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Clarkson to take on a huge workload, though.
It's not surprising to see Podziemski and Hield move into the starting lineup. However, Jonathan Kuminga's move to the bench was unexpected. The fourth-year wing could be leaned on as a spark plug off the bench.
Sexton is being benched after scoring 23 points on 9-of-11 shooting in his last game. George, on the other hand, is averaging 13.7 points per contest on poor shooting splits. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect the Jazz's new starting point guard to take over a heavy workload, though.
Doncic amassed 13 points, six rebounds, and two assists before getting hurt. Whether he'll return to the contest remains to be seen. He entered halftime leading all Mavericks with 13 points and someone else will need to step up if he isn't able to contribute in the second half.
Doncic went back to the locker room after sustaining an injury to his right leg with 1:10 remaining in the second quarter of Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Gafford got off to a hot start on Tuesday with eight points (4-of-4 FGs), two rebounds, and a block in seven minutes. Dereck Lively could get a significant boost if Gafford can't return.

Ben Simmons (lower back injury management) is out and Nic Claxton (hamstring) is having his minutes monitored. Clowney will have a tough matchup against Nikola Jokic in his first-ever start, though.
