Deandre Ayton Unavailable For Friday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Zach Collins To Play On Friday

San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (concussion) has been cleared to play ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Collins will make his return to the court after a one-game absence due to a concussion. His return will likely push Dominick Barlow out of the rotation.

James Wood Optioned To Minors

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood has been reassigned to minor league camp on Friday.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson will draw the starting nod versus the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday.

He has scored in double digits in four straight games. He's worth a look as […]

Torrey Craig Will Remain In Starting Five

Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig will remain in the starting five ahead of Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets.

The veteran forward offers […]

If he sits out, Nickeil […]

Sasha Vezenkov Won't Play On Thursday

Sacramento Kings forward Sasha Vezenkov (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Edwards will start on Thursday, but Keon Ellis playing […]

Kessler Edwards Gets Starting Nod

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kessler Edwards will move into the starting five ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (back) is considered doubtful ahead of Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs.

Dolphins Showing Interest In Odell Beckham Jr.

The Miami Dolphins appear to be a possible landing spot for a free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., according to Barry Jackson. The veteran wideout was recently released by the Baltimore Ravens. Beckham is clearly not in his prime anymore, but he can still contribute to an NFL roster. Last season, Beckham finished with 35 […]
