Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't play on Sunday versus Denver. He was listed as probable on the injury report for left Achilles injury management.

Cooper Flagg Still Sidelined on Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Cooper Flagg (foot) remains out for Sunday's matchup with Indiana. The rookie has already missed two games because of a left midfoot sprain.

Scottie Barnes Ruled Out on Sunday

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's meeting with Milwaukee. He's out with a personal issue, so his next opportunity to return will be on Tuesday against the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder.

Grayson Allen Back on Saturday Night, Will Come Off the Bench

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (ankle) will return on Saturday versus Orlando after missing the last four games. The 30-year-old is having a fantastic campaign, averaging 17.0 points, a career-high, with 3.0 boards, 4.0 assists, and 1.4 steals. He will come off the bench, with Jalen Green entering the starting lineup. However, despite the demotion, […]

Jalen Suggs Won't Suit Up on Saturday

Jusuf Nurkic Won't Face Memphis on Friday Night

Utah Jazz center Jusuf Nurkic (nose) won't play on Friday versus Memphis.
