Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (knee) limped to the locker room during the first quarter of Sunday's scrimmage. He suffered a left knee injury while attempting to take a charge.

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (foot) is leaving the Orlando bubble to seek a foot specialist. He is dealing with plantar fasciitis, so it's unclear how long Sabonis will be sidelined.

Marc Gasol Returning To Action Sunday

Toronto Raptors center Marc Gasol (rest) did not suit up for Friday's scrimmage. However, he'll be back on the court for Sunday's meaningless contest.

Richaun Holmes Remains Out Saturday

Domantas Sabonis Has No Timetable

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (foot) has not touched a basketball in six days and has no timetable for his return.

Marvin Bagley Has Left Orlando

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) has left the Orlando bubble and has been quickly ruled out for the restart.

The fact he's in crutches means this likely […]

Domantas Sabonis To Miss First Exhibition Game

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (foot) has been ruled out for the first exhibition game, according to head coach Nate McMillan. Sabonis is dealing with plantar fasciitis, so there's a chance he misses all the exhibition games. He is unable to put any weight on his foot right now. It's unclear if Sabonis will be […]

De'Aaron Fox Making Solid Progress

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) has been making good progress and is expected back soon, according to head coach Luke Walton.
