Unfortunately, he suffered a season-ending meniscus tear in December, resulting in […]

Quentin Grimes "Comfortable" In Philadelphia

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Quentin Grimes will be a restricted free agent this offseason. However, it appears he wants to stay in Philly.

Still, Grimes understands the "NBA is a […]

Tyrese Maxey Progressing In Recovery

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (finger) is "progressing well." However, the 24-year-old indicated he'll need "about another month" before resuming basketball drills. He had a quality 2024-25 campaign, averaging a career-high 26.3 points with 6.1 assists. His three-point shooting took a dip. Yet, Maxey made up for it by increasing his contributions on the defensive […]

Jalen Brunson Out Versus The Nets

Brooklyn Nets guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus the Nets. The Knicks will enter the playoffs as the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference. As expected, the team will give Brunson the day off to rest after appearing in consecutive contests on Thursday and Friday. Without him, Miles McBride, averaging 13.7 […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Out Against Brooklyn

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play on Sunday against Brooklyn. He was listed as questionable. However, not many expected to see KAT on the floor. Jalen Brunson (ankle), Josh Hart (knee), and OG Anunoby (thumb) also won't suit up, meaning DFS managers could see increased production from Precious Achiuwa, Landry Shamet, Cameron […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Available On Sunday

Orlando Magic guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) will play on Sunday against the Hawks. KCP didn't suit up on Friday night versus the Indiana Pacers. However, he'll be out there for the regular-season finale. It's tough to say how much action Caldwell-Pope will get, considering the Magic are locked into the Play-In. Still, his availability should […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Available On Sunday

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) is available for Sunday's meeting with the Hawks. He didn't play on Friday in the win over the Indiana Pacers, opening the door for Goga Bitadze to enter the starting lineup and finish with 11 points, seven boards, and two blocks. It's unknown if Carter will see his […]

Paolo Banchero Won't Play Against Atlanta

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (ankle) won't suit up for Sunday's clash with the Hawks. He'll miss his second-straight game on Sunday. However, the Magic are heading to the Play-In tournament, so there's no reason Banchero needs to be out there. Franz Wagner (knee) also won't get on the floor. But Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) and […]

Trae Young Won't Suit Up Versus Orlando

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) won't suit up for Sunday's clash with the Orlando Magic. The Hawks are Play-In bound, so there's no reason Young needs to be on the floor for the season finale. Most of the other members of the starting lineup also won't suit up. But as far as the one […]

Chet Holmgren Out On Sunday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (back) won't play on Sunday versus the Pelicans. He'll miss another game because of low back spasms.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Out Again On Sunday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (shin) won't play on Sunday against the Pelicans. The Thunder stamped their ticket as the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference long ago.

Pascal Siakam Out Versus Cleveland

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) won't play on Sunday against Cleveland. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Magic. As a result, Obi Toppin entered the starting lineup.

Tyrese Haliburton Remains Out On Sunday

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (back) will remain out for Sunday's Central Division clash with the Cavaliers. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Orlando Magic. But the Pacers are thinking about the playoffs, so Haliburton can take another game off. T.J. McConnell got the start versus Orlando, finishing with 12 points and […]

Derrick White Out For The Season Finale

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (neck) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The Celtics already locked up the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will allow the club to sit White and the rest of their core producers. As a result, Payton Pritchard, who had 15 points and 10 assists in […]

Kristaps Porzingis Out Versus Charlotte

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't play on Sunday against Charlotte. The veteran missed eight straight games in February and March because of an illness. He also sat out four more contests since returning for the March 15 win over the Brooklyn Nets. With that said, the Celtics have already secured the No. 2 […]

Jayson Tatum Resting On Sunday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (rest) won't play on Sunday against the Hornets. The C's are heading to the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, this will enable the club to rest some of their core performers, including Tatum, Jrue Holiday (shoulder), Jaylen Brown (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), Al Horford […]

Jaylen Brown Receiving Treatment On His Right Knee

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (knee) won't play on Sunday against Charlotte. The right knee injury has been an issue of late.

The 28-year-old struggled in Tuesday's overtime win over […]

Paolo Banchero Could Miss Sunday's Finale

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (ankle) is questionable heading into Sunday's game in Atlanta. He didn't suit up for Friday's win over the Indiana Pacers. Without him, Caleb Houstan entered the starting lineup, finishing with 10 points, five rebounds, and three assists. If Banchero, Franz Wagner (knee), Wendell Carter Jr. (hip), and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) […]

Bobby Portis Taking Sunday Off

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (rest) won't suit up against Detroit on Sunday. He had a 17-point, 10-rebound double-double when these clubs met on Friday evening. However, his services won't be needed for this one, especially since Milwaukee has nothing to gain or lose on Sunday. Brook Lopez (rest) also won't play, and Giannis Antetokounmpo […]

Kyle Kuzma Probable For Season Finale

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is probable for Sunday's rematch with the Pistons. Brook Lopez (rest) and Bobby Portis (rest) won't play, and Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) is doubtful. As a result, Kuzma could bounce between the four and five spots. Although he might see fewer minutes than normal, he should be more productive than […]

Brook Lopez Resting On Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (rest) won't play on Sunday against Detroit. These clubs met on Friday night, with Lopez finishing with 15 points, seven rebounds, and three blocks. However, Milwaukee is heading into the playoffs having already secured the No. 5 seed, so most of the team's core performers, including Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder), also […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Not Expected To Play On Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) is doubtful for Sunday's rematch against the Pistons. Milwaukee is locked into the No. 5 seed in the Eastern Conference, so the multi-time All-Star will likely sit this one out after producing a 32-point, 15-assist, 11-rebound triple-double in the win over Detroit on Friday night. Bobby Portis (rest) and […]

OG Anunoby, Josh Hart Will Play On Friday

New York Knicks forwards OG Anunoby (thumb) and Josh Hart (knee) will play on Friday against the Cavaliers. Anunoby and Hart weren't available for Thursday's loss to the Detroit Pistons. As a result, Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa moved into the starting lineup, with the duo combining for 30 points, 12 boards, nine assists, six […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Ruled Out Versus Cleveland

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play on Friday against Cleveland. KAT had 25 points, 10 boards, five assists, and one steal in Thursday's loss to the Pistons. He also had seven turnovers. However, as some expected, Towns will get the night off. Mitchell Robinson, who had 14 points and 14 rebounds while […]

Pascal Siakam Won't Play Against Orlando

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) won't play on Friday against Orlando. The former Raptor had 10 points and eight boards in Thursday's win over the Cavs. However, the Pacers are locked into a playoff spot, so Siakam, Tyrese Haliburton (back), Aaron Nesmith (rest), Andrew Nembhard (thumb), and Myles Turner (knee) also won't suit up. […]

Myles Turner Ruled Out On Friday

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (knee) won't play on Friday against the Magic. The Pacers are going to the playoffs. As a result, Tyrese Haliburton (back), Pascal Siakam (elbow), Aaron Nesmith (rest), and Andrew Nembhard (thumb) also won't suit up. But as far the middle is concerned, Thomas Bryant, averaging 12.6 points and 8.0 rebounds […]

Tyrese Haliburton Won't Face The Magic

The Pacers are expected to enter the postseason as the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference, so Myles Turner (knee), Pascal Siakam […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Sidelined Versus The Pacers

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) won't play on Friday against the Pacers. He logged 22 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Boston Celtics. However, the Magic are locked into the Play-In tournament, so Orlando also won't have Franz Wagner (knee), Paolo Banchero (ankle), and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) in the lineup on Friday evening. […]

Franz Wagner Won't Play Against Indiana

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (knee) won't play against the Pacers on Friday. Orlando is already locked into the Play-In tournament. As such, Paolo Banchero (ankle), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee), and Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) will join Wagner on the shelf. With that in mind, Cole Anthony is still available, so it's logical to assume he […]

Paolo Banchero Ruled Out Against Indiana

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (ankle) won't play on Friday against Indiana. The Magic are bound for the Play-In tournament, so the team will give Banchero, Franz Wagner (knee), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee), and Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) the night off.
