Rui Hachimura, who is shooting 40.3% from 3-point range, is also probable as he is dealing with left patellar tendinopathy.

He still played 24 minutes in the previous game, contributing five points, three rebounds, and one steal, shooting 2 of 4 from the field and 0 of 2 from 3-point range.

JJ Redick's team has found themselves in a bit of a slump, currently on a three-game losing streak. The franchise has dropped seven of their last 10 games and will need to regroup quickly to secure a spot in the top three of the standings. The Purple and Gold are currently ranked fourth with a 43-28 record.
