Mark Williams - Won't play SundayWilliams (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ImpactWilliams will take a seat for the second half of a back-to-back set after posting 12 points, five rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Cavaliers. In his absence, Taj Gibson is a candidate for more playing time, especially if Nick Richards (ankle) joins Moussa Diabate (illness) and Williams on the sidelines.

Isaac Okoro - Sidelined for Sunday's contestOkoro (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
ImpactAfter sitting out Saturday's 116-102 win over the Hornets, Okoro will end up missing both legs of Cleveland's back-to-back set while he gets more time off to recover from a bruised left knee. Dean Wade replaced Okoro in the starting five Saturday and will presumably do so again Sunday.

Craig Porter Jr. - Sidelined SundayPorter (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Heat.
ImpactHe'll miss a third straight game due to the illness. Porter had fallen out of the rotation after Caris LeVert returned in mid-November following a multi-game injury absence, so the second-year guard's continued absence Sunday shouldn't affect how head coach Kenny Atkinson divvies up the minutes among the team's backcourt players.

Moussa Diabaté - Still out SundayDiabate (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ImpactAn illness will cost Diabate both halves of Charlotte's weekend back-to-back set. He should have plenty of time to recover before attempting to suit up Friday in Chicago. Mark Williams has been limited off the bench since making his season debut, while Nick Richards is nursing an ankle injury, so Taj Gibson is a candidate for playing time in Diabate's absence.

Tidjane Salaün - Remains out SundaySalaun (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ImpactSalaun sprained his left ankle during the first quarter of Thursday's loss to the Knicks and will miss both halves of Charlotte's back-to-back set. With Miles Bridges (knee) also sidelined, Josh Green and Cody Martin have handled increased roles. Salaun's next chance to suit up will come Friday in Chicago.

Miles Bridges - Out again SundayBridges (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ImpactBridges hasn't placed since Nov. 19. His next chance to suit up won't come until Friday's game in Chicago. With Tidjane Salaun (ankle) also sidelined, Josh Green and Cody Martin have seen increased roles.

Nick Richards - Iffy for SundayRichards (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ImpactRichards took a seat for the first half of Charlotte's back-to-back set, allowing Taj Gibson to draw a start as Mark Williams continues to operate off the bench since making his season debut. Over his last three appearances, Richards has averaged 13.3 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.7 blocks in 26.3 minutes per game.
