Jordan Clarkson Unavailable On Friday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. In an unsurprising move, Clarkson will take a seat as the Jazz continue to tank.

Joey Loperfido Optioned To Triple-A

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Joey Loperfido has been optioned to Triple-A Buffalo on Friday. Loperfido had a real shot at making the Opening Day roster, but really struggled with the bat in camp.

Donovan Clingan Downgraded To Questionable

Portland Trail Blazers forward Donovan Clingan (illness) is a late addition to the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets.

Charles Omenihu Returning To Chiefs

The Kansas City Chiefs have re-signed defensive end Charles Omenihu. They've agreed on a one-year, $7 million contract for the upcoming season.
