Norman Powell Misses A Fourth Consecutive Game

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (hamstring) will remain on the shelf for Monday's tilt against Boston.

Coffey's work mostly goes unnoticed, but he's had […]

Mo Bamba Sits On Monday

Los Angeles Clippers center Mo Bamba (knee) will sit out Monday's meeting with Boston. The Clippers finish off a back-to-back set, and the injury-prone Bamba will be rested for Monday's game.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (illness) will play on Monday against Atlanta, with the team upgrading him from questionable to available.

Klay Thompson Out On Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (foot) will not take the court on Monday against Atlanta. The team has downgraded Thompson from questionable to out.

Kirill Kaprizov Considered A Game-Time Call For Monday

Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's matchup against Winnipeg. It looks like Kaprizov may be ready to make a quick return to the lineup after he missed Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Calgary. Minnesota's star winger skated in his usual spot on the top line Monday […]

Jack Roslovic Continues To See Success With Hurricanes

Carolina Hurricanes forward Jack Roslovic enters the new week of action with a three-game goal streak.

William Nylander Enjoys Another Multi-Point Outing

Toronto Maple Leafs forward William Nylander recorded a power-play assist and the game-winning goal in Sunday's 3-2 victory over Utah.

Jonathan Kuminga Continues To Battle An Illness, Questionable For Monday

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (illness) is considered questionable for Monday's game against Brooklyn. He might be absent for a second consecutive contest due to an illness.

Ben Simmons To Sit On Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard/center Ben Simmons (injury management) will be rested on Monday versus Golden State. He hasn't played in both legs of a back-to-back this season, and Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez said ahead of Sunday's game against Sacramento that Simmons will be out for injury management purposes on Monday. Hopefully, with a rest day […]

Dorian Finney-Smith To Remain Out On Monday

Noah Clowney and Ziaire […]

Dennis Schroder Out On Sunday

The German star will miss his first game of the season. His […]

Trendon Watford Available Versus Kings

Brooklyn Nets forward/center Trendon Watford (adductor) has been upgraded from probable to available for Sunday's clash with Sacramento.

Dorian Finney-Smith's (ankle) absence on Sunday might […]

Ziaire Williams Ready To Go Sunday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ziaire Williams (foot) will suit up on Sunday versus Sacramento.
