Day-To-DayWrist — Arm — Not SpecifiedEst. return Oct 28

Markkanen is day-to-day with a right wrist sprain, per NBA reporter Marc Stein.

Markkanen left Monday's loss to Memphis with the injury, and it doesn't sound initially that he's dealing with a significant setback. The star forward can be tentatively deemed questionable for Wednesday's tilt versus the Spurs.

How it's counted

Each situation shows this player's numbers in those games, with the difference from their full-season line in parentheses. The definition sits under each situation name. Situations overlap: one game can count in several.

True shooting is one shooting number that folds in threes and free throws; its differences are in points of TS%. Every final box score counts — there is no minutes cutoff. Fewer than 5 games reads as a small sample. These splits describe what happened. They do not prove the schedule caused it.
