Lauri Markkanen Won't Play On Friday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Markkanen will miss his second game in a row due to a left hand contusion.

The expectation is that Jokic will be […]

Kawhi Leonard Could Miss Friday's Game

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (personal) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He sat out Wednesday's game due to personal reasons, so this could be a multi-game absence for Leonard. Terance Mann would likely be asked to move into the starting five. He'd have increased value and become a much […]

LeBron James Uncertain For Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The superstar forward made his return to the court on Wednesday. He looked good in that contest and he was able to play 31 minutes without any issues. Despite that, the Lakers are listing James as questionable […]

Julius Randle To Miss Two Weeks

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (ankle) is expected to miss some time after suffering an injury during Wednesday's game. The team announced that Randle will be re-evaluated in two weeks after suffering a sprained left ankle.

Grant Williams Upgraded To Available

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams (illness) has been upgraded to available for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The 24-year-old will suit up despite dealing with a non-COVID related illness. Williams should resume his normal role off the bench during Thursday's contest. He has played well lately, but it's not enough to warrant rostering in […]

Robert Williams III Will Suit Up Thursday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) is available for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Despite that, it sounds like […]

Nikola Jokic Could Miss Thursday's Game

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (calf) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Nuggets have a three-game lead for the top seed in the West right now.

Keon Johnson Ruled Out On Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Keon Johnson (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. It appears Johnson fractured his finger during pregame shootaround.

Anthony Edwards Available For Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He was listed as questionable earlier in the day due to an illness.

Cam Reddish To Play On Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This is a bit surprising considering Reddish was listed as doubtful earlier in the day.

Kevin Durant To Return On Wednesday

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The superstar forward has missed the last 10 games due to sprained left ankle. Luckily, Durant is back before the postseason and should be available for a normal workload. However, it wouldn't be shocking to see the Suns being cautious […]

Maxi Kleber Questionable On Monday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The 31-year-old continues to deal with a lingering hamstring issue, so the team might give Kleber the night off to rest. He hasn't been offering much on offense lately, but continues to contribute on the defensive side of […]

Jrue Holiday Ruled Out Monday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. It's uncertain what is going on with Holiday, so this could be a one-game absence or multiple game situation. The Bucks should be fine without Holiday against the tanking Pistons. The absence of Holiday should mean that Jevon […]

Marcus Morris Sr. Sitting Out On Monday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The 33-year-old is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so the team will play it safe and have Morris sit this game out. His absence should mean that Nicolas Batum and Robert Covington get extended playing […]

Karl-Anthony Towns To Sit Out On Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This doesn't come as a surprise considering it's the second game of a back-to-back set. The Wolves want to keep Towns healthy, so they'll give him a rest day on Monday. The absence of Towns should mean increased […]

Tyrese Haliburton Won't Play On Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Haliburton recently returned after missing six games due to a right ankle sprain. Now, the team is going to give Haliburton a rest day after he played through the ankle issue over the past two games. The Pacers […]

Myles Turner Unavailable On Monday

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It appears this is going to be a rest day for Turner while he continues to recover from a lower back issue. His absence should mean that Isaiah Jackson moves into the starting five. Jackson has been a […]

Calais Campbell To Meet With Lions

Free-agent defensive end Calais Campbell is scheduled to visit with the Detroit Lions on Thursday. The 36-year-old continues to meet with teams before he decides where he wants to play next season.
