Houston Rockets center Christian Wood scored 17 points on 7-for-10 shooting in Thursday's win over Memphis, but played just 20 minutes before exiting with an ankle injury.

Otto Porter Ruled Out For Friday

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (back) won't play against the Orlando Magic on Friday in the first half of a back-to-back due to back spasms.

Reggie Perry Sent To G-League

Brooklyn Nets center/forward Reggie Perry has been sent to the team's G-League affiliate for the G-League bubble season in Orlando. Perry flashed some decent play during his brief time in Brooklyn, but the team signed Norvel Pelle recently, who'll be that emergency big at the end of the bench. Perry wasn't fantasy relevant and Pelle […]

Damian Lillard Out Thursday
