What happened: Jalen Johnson is listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain ahead of Monday's game at Indiana. Jock Landale is out with a left hip strain, while Mouhamed Gueye remains sidelined with a left foot fracture. Henri Veesaar has also been ruled out due to a torn right ACL.

Why it matters: Both Johnson and Landale suffered injuries during Saturday's 121-99 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Johnson's potential absence thins Atlanta's starting frontcourt after opening all seven games this season. Operating without Landale, Gueye, and Veesaar leaves the roster with an altered center and forward rotation.

What to watch: Atlanta faces Indiana on Monday night, with Johnson's availability to be evaluated ahead of tipoff.
