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

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.

Kristaps Porzingis Out Versus Charlotte

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. As a result, DFS managers could see increased production from Cole Anthony, Goga Bitadze, Caleb […]

Trae Young Available Versus Philly

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) is cleared to play in Friday's meeting with the 76ers. The former Oklahoma Sooner had a 24-point, 12-rebound double-double in Thursday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. As usual, he was listed on the injury report because of Achilles Tendinitis.

In addition, Embiid wasn't productive, at least compared to previous season, averaging […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Available Against New Orleans

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness) will suit up for Thursday's matchup with the Pelicans. The multi-time All-Star has appeared on the injury due to numerous injuries throughout the year. But, this time, he's listed because of an illness. With that said, the Pelicans are shorthanded, so Antetokounmpo may ride the bench more than usual […]

Jarrett Allen To See Limited Action On Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen is available for Thursday's meeting with the Pacers. With Darius Garland (toe), Donovan Mitchell (ankle), Evan Mobley (rest), and Max Strus (knee) getting the night off, Allen is the only starter who will get on the floor.
