Leonard (ankle/illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

Horford won't start Saturday's game against the Lakers, Kenzo Fukuda of ClutchPoints.com reports.
The Scoop: Horford started Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies in place of Draymond Green (back), but the former will head back to the bench now that Green has been cleared to return. Horford has been productive when called upon and exploded for a season-high 22 points and six three-pointers in a start against the Nuggets last Sunday.

George (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Pelicans, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.
The Scoop: George has appeared in just one game so far this month -- a Feb. 7 loss to Orlando -- during which he logged 13 minutes before sustaining a right ankle sprain that caused him to miss six consecutive contests. Before picking up the right ankle injury, he missed three straight games with a left ankle sprain. It wouldn't be surprising to see the third-year point guard operate under a minutes restriction during his return to action.

Poeltl will start Saturday's game against the Wizards, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The Scoop: Poeltl is set to anchor the frontcourt Sunday after logging 28 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Spurs -- his highest workload since returning from a 24-game absence due to a back strain. The veteran center finished that contest with 15 points, seven rebounds and three blocks, showing no ill effects from the injury that required specialized treatment in January.

Westbrook (thigh) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
The Scoop: Westbrook missed Thursday's win over Dallas due to a right thigh contusion, though he's set to play Sunday. The veteran point guard's return will likely push Devin Carter to the bench. In eight February appearances, Westbrook averaged 14.5 points, 4.3 assists and 2.5 rebounds across 24.4 minutes per game.

Jones is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota due to a right shoulder strain.
The Scoop: Jones managed to shed his questionable tag ahead of Friday's overtime loss to the Thunder, committing a foul in two minutes of action. He's now is danger of missing the front end of this back-to-back set due to the shoulder injury, and if he's ultimately ruled out, Tim Hardaway and Bruce Brown would be candidates to see a slight uptick in playing time. Jones has averaged 4.0 points and 4.2 rebounds across 17.4 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
The Scoop: Gordon will miss a 15th consecutive contest as he continues to recover from a right hamstring strain. While Friday was initially targeted as the earliest possible return date for the veteran forward, the team has yet to provide an updated timeline after announcing Jan. 29 that he would be re-evaluated in 4-to-6 weeks.
