OutWrist — Arm — SprainEst. return Nov 11

Markkanen is out for Tuesday's game versus the Heat with a right wrist sprain.

The star forward is missing a second consecutive contest, and he faces a short turnaround to return ahead of Wednesday's tilt against the Magic. Josh Green figures to draw a second straight start, while Brice Sensabaugh and Josh Okogie should see a bump in playing time.

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.
