Malcolm Brogdon Won't Play On Saturday Night

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (ankle) remains out on Saturday night versus Charlotte.

Alexandre Sarr Questionable Against The Hornets

Washington Wizards forward/center Alexandre Sarr (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with the Hornets.

Bradley Beal Downgraded To Out On Thursday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (calf) won't play on Thursday against New Orleans. The former Washington Wizard popped up on the injury report on Thursday.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (quadriceps) won't return to Wednesday's meeting against the Wizards. He wasn't on the floor long, logging only six minutes and finishing with five points.

Al Horford Might Miss Tuesday's Contest

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (personal) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors. The veteran had only four points in Sunday's win over the New York Knicks.

Tyrese Maxey Questionable For Monday Night

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (finger) is questionable for Monday's game against Chicago. He has been battling a knee injury of late.

However, Trendon Watford and Keon Johnson also […]

Norman Powell Won't Face The Pacers

Los Angeles Clippers forward Norman Powell (knee) won't play in Sunday's game against Indiana. The 31-year-old wasn't available for Thursday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks because of knee soreness.
