Eric Gordon is Probable for Tuesday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Owners should […]

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Wilson Chandler (illness) is probable to play in Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He did not go through shootaround, but did play 24 minutes in Saturday's victory over Golden State. Chandler has not played well lately, but maybe his illness is a factor.

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (ankle) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Williams has already missed three games in a row.

Detroit Pistons shooting guard Luke Kennard (foot) is questionable for Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Darren Collison Questionable on Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Darren Collison (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Marquese Chriss Suspended One Game

Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss has reportedly been suspended for one game after having a verbal confrontation with an assistant coach.

Joe Johnson Ruled Out Saturday

Utah Jazz guard/forward Joe Johnson (rest) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It is a back-to-back set, so it is not surprising the Jazz decide to rest their veteran. Johnson reportedly wanted out of Utah, but maybe that changed after a four game winning streak. Royce O'Neale should see […]

Mike Scott is Questionable Saturday

Washington Wizards power forward Mike Scott (illness) is questionable to play against the Orlando Magic on Saturday.
