Clarke suffered a non-contact injury in the first quarter of Friday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets and didn't return.

Detroit Pistons forward Isaiah Livers (ankle) is probable for Saturday's Central Division meeting with Cleveland.

Monte Morris Out Again Versus The Raptors

Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) remains out for Saturday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors.

Alec Burks Won't Play Against The Cavs

Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (foot) won't play on Saturday against Cleveland. Detroit will also be without Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles), Isaiah Stewart (hip), and Jalen Duren (ankle), so Killian Hayes, Hamidou Diallo, and Jaden Ivey could see a significant uptick on the scoring end. At the same time, James Wiseman and Marvin Bagley III should […]

Isaiah Stewart To Remain Sidelined Versus Cleveland

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (hip) isn't available for Saturday's meeting with the Cavaliers. The 21-year-old will miss his third consecutive contest, joining Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles), Alec Burks (foot), and Jalen Duren (ankle) on the shelf for this one. As a result, James Wiseman and Marvin Bagley III should get most of the minutes up […]

Jalen Duren To Miss Another Game On Saturday

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the Cleveland Cavaliers, marking his fourth consecutive absence.

Wiseman has averaged 13.3 points and 8.7 rebounds in three […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Won't Suit Up On Saturday

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles) won't suit up on Saturday versus Cleveland.

That said, Detroit will be undermanned on Saturday, with Alec Burks (foot), Jalen […]

Ben Simmons Experiences Back Soreness During Rehab

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ben Simmons (knee) experienced back soreness during rehab this week. The 26-year-old has missed the last four games with a nagging knee issue. However, the latest setback only adds more uncertainty concerning whether he can make it back in 2022-23. Simmons is easily having the worst season of his career, averaging 6.9 […]

Kawhi Leonard Getting The Night Off On Friday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't play on Friday evening versus the Sacramento Kings.

Norman Powell (shoulder) and Marcus Morris Sr. (elbow) are also out, while Ivica Zubac […]

Cam Reddish Back In The Starting Lineup On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Cam Reddish will start on Friday versus the Atlanta Hawks. Anfernee Simons is back on the injury report, so Reddish will roll with the first five against his former squad.

Jaylen Brown Available Versus Brooklyn

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (face) is available on Friday night versus the Brooklyn Nets. Brown has been a routine occupant on the injury report because of the facial fracture suffered before the All-Star break. However, he'll be good to go and expected to see a full workload, meaning significantly fewer minutes for Sam Hauser […]

Stephen Curry Expects To Play On Sunday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (leg) expects to play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 34-year-old, who has missed nearly a month because of a leg injury, has averaged 17.5 points, 5.9 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.6 steals this season while shooting 43.7% from deep. While the Warriors are looking to make […]

Jonathan Isaac Done For The Season

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (groin) will miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old underwent surgery on Friday to repair a torn left adductor muscle, resulting in a premature end to another season. Isaac had played only 11 games in 2022-23 after being sidelined since the 2019-20 campaign because of knee and hamstring injuries, […]

Devin Vassell Resting Against The Rockets

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (knee) won't play on Saturday against the Rockets.
