Killian Hayes - Could be back SundayHayes (adductor) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Clippers.

A return could also result in reduced roles for Saben Lee and Cory Joseph.

Grant Williams - Plays 18 minutes despite illnessWilliams totaled seven points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes during Friday's 114-103 win over the Pistons.
ImpactWilliams was listed as questionable due to an illness ahead of Friday's matchup, but he was still able to suit up for a 35th straight appearance. He produced right around his season averages, though he did play fewer than 20 minutes for just the second time since Feb. 11. Either way, the illness shouldn't impact his availability or production moving forward.
