ImpactMartin has missed the last two games, but it seems he has a shot at returning to the action Friday. He would add solid minutes off the bench if that's the case, but his fantasy upside wouldn't be very high in that role.

Cody Martin - Questionable to face SpursMartin (groin) is questionable for Friday's game versus the Spurs.
Frank Ntilikina - Questionable to play FridayNtilikina (tibia)
ImpactNtilikina has yet to play this season, but the questionable tag means he is trending in the right direction toward making a recovery. Even when he becomes available, he won't be more than bench depth.

P.J. Washington Jr. - Unlikely to play FridayWashington (foot) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Spurs.
ImpactWashington continues to deal with a right foot sprain and will likely be forced to miss a third consecutive matchup. Assuming he's ruled out once again, Nathan Mensah, Nick Smith and JT Thor are candidates to see increased run.

LaMelo Ball - Questionable for FridayBall (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs.
ImpactBall has been sidelined since late November due to a right ankle sprain, but he's been ramping up over the past month. He resumed individual activities Dec. 8 and was a full participant in Sunday's practice session. The 22-year-old will be in the mix to return to action Friday, but it's possible he faces a minutes restriction if he's cleared to play, even though he's been working on his conditioning in recent weeks.

Kevin Huerter - Questionable for FridayHuerter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus Philadelphia.
ImpactHuerter is in danger of missing Thursday's contest due to a left ankle sprain he suffered against Charlotte. Chris Duarte and Malik Monk are candidates to receive extended minutes if Huerter is ruled out.
