The righty is currently in possession of a 2.82 ERA while compiling a […]

Asdrubal Cabrera Feeling Better

Nikola Vucevic Resting Against Milwaukee

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (rest) will not play on Sunday against Milwaukee. No surprise here, as the team has nothing to gain by having the big man in the lineup for the final game of the season. With Daniel Theis (hip) out as well, Thaddeus Young and Lauri Markkanen could benefit the most.

Zach LaVine Out Against Milwaukee

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) won't play on Sunday against Milwaukee.

Danilo Gallinari (back), Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring), Clint Capela (Achilles), and Trae Young (toe), among others, […]

Trae Young Probable Against Houston

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (toe) will likely play against the Rockets on Sunday.

With other notables listed on the […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable For The Season Finale

As a result, […]

Kevin Love Out Against Brooklyn

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) won't play against Brooklyn. The veteran will miss the final game of the regular season due to a right calf strain.

Roberts also indicated that the bullpen would handle things against Miami, […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Could Return Saturday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (ankle) could return on Saturday. The slugger injured his left ankle during Thursday's loss to Toronto, and although he didn't suffer a fracture, it was still too sore for him to suit up on Friday night against Milwaukee.
