Jordan Bell is Questionable on Monday
Golden State Warriors forward/center Jordan Bell (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the New York Knicks.

Pelicans Sign Emeka Okafor For Remainder of The Season
The New Orleans Pelicans have signed center Emeka Okafor for the remainder of the season.

Manu Ginobili Ruled Out Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Manu Ginobili (chest) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Zach LaVine Won't Play in Back-to-Back Sets
Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) will not play in back-to-back sets for the reminder of the season. The Bulls will continue to be cautious with LaVine as his knee recovers.

Kosta Koufos is Questionable on Saturday
Sacramento Kings forward/center Kosta Koufos (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
