MarJon Beauchamp Questionable To Play Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward MarJon Beauchamp (back) carries a questionable tag ahead of Sunday's matchup against Phoenix. He's been battling back spasms lately and could be unavailable for a third straight game. Beauchaump's absence wouldn't typically hurt Milwaukee, but Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) and Malik Beasley (back) are also questionable for Sunday. The 23-year-old would be a […]

Khris Middleton On Track To Return Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Sunday's contest against Phoenix, which signals he's ready to return to the lineup. Middleton last played on Feb. 6 and has missed the past 16 games with a left ankle sprain. Jae Crowder has been filling in for him in the starting unit […]

Tyus Jones Won't Play Against Chicago

Washington Wizards point guard Tyus Jones (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's clash with the Bulls. He was already doubtful for the game with lower back spasms, so Jones' absence won't come as a surprise. Impressively, he had so far featured in every game for Washington this season. Jordan Poole has started to rebuild […]

Jordan Clarkson Sits Out Second Consecutive Game

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (groin) has been ruled out for a second consecutive game as the team gets ready to face Minnesota on Saturday night. The versatile scorer is battling a groin strain. With Clarkson absent, Johnny Juzang logged a career-high 25 minutes on Friday against Atlanta, posting 19 points off the bench. Meanwhile, […]

John Collins Rested On Saturday

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (rest) won't be in the lineup on Saturday against Minnesota. After playing in every game since Dec. 18, Collins will sit out the matchup for rest purposes. With Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) also out, we should see plenty of Brice Sensabaugh and Taylor Hendricks against the Timberwolves, with a sprinkle of […]

Lauri Markkanen Misses Sixth Consecutive Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) isn't ready to make his return to the lineup on Saturday against Minnesota, missing a sixth consecutive game. Utah's leading scorer remains on the shelf with a right quadriceps contusion. Markkanen's absence has boosted Brice Sensabaugh's role on the team, and the 20-year-old rookie has even begun to start […]

Richaun Holmes Set To Return On Saturday

Washington Wizards forward/center Richaun Holmes (toe) will return from a three-game absence on Saturday against Chicago. He has recovered from a toe sprain and should jump straight into the starting unit, with Washington lacking options at center. Holmes has notched a double-double in each of his past two starts. He will face a tough challenge […]

Deni Avdija Good To Go Versus Chicago

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (knee) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Saturday's matchup against the Bulls. The 23-year-old is dealing with a right knee contusion but will remain in the lineup for a ninth consecutive game. Avdija has played a massive part for the Wizards lately and should be able to produce […]

Anfernee Simons Returns To Trail Blazers Lineup

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (knee) will rejoin the action on Saturday against New Orleans. He has been upgraded from probable to available. Simons couldn't play on Thursday versus the Knicks due to a knee problem. Scoot Henderson picked up a start in his place and will head back to the second unit on […]

Matisse Thybulle Won't Play On Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's meeting with New Orleans. The defensive specialist comes out of the lineup for just the second time in 28 games. Thybulle has averaged nearly 25 minutes per game for the month, meaning there will be a nice chunk of minutes to be […]

Jabari Walker Returns To Action On Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against the Pelicans. The team has upgraded him from a questionable status. Walker returns after missing five games with a right hip inflammation. The 21-year-old was rolling before getting hurt, and it will be interesting to see if he can carry on […]

Jerami Grant Downgraded To Out Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) won't make his return to action Saturday versus New Orleans. The team has downgraded him from doubtful to out, meaning the 30-year-old will be out for the fifth time in six games. Grant's continued absence gives Kris Murray and Toumani Camara a chance to make noise, while Jabari […]

Tobias Harris Ruled Out For Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) won't take the court against Charlotte on Saturday. The team has downgraded Harris from questionable to out. The veteran forward comes out of the lineup for only the seventh time this season. Harris has had a couple of miserable outings lately, so having some time off might even benefit […]

James van Riemsdyk Set To Return To Action On Saturday

Boston Bruins left wing James van Riemsdyk (illness) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Saturday against Philadelphia. He missed Thursday's contest versus Montreal due to an illness. The veteran winger has been quiet in recent weeks but has done reasonably well for the Bruins this season, collecting 38 points (11 goals, 27 assists) in […]

Zach Parise Could Be Back In Action Saturday

Colorado Avalanche winger Zach Parise (lower body) will be a game-time call for Saturday's big clash with the Oilers. The veteran forward has been unavailable for three contests, sitting out action with a lower-body problem. Parise has made 15 appearances with the Avalanche since joining the team in late January, posting four goals and three […]

Jonathan Drouin A Game-Time Call Saturday

Colorado Avalanche left wing Jonathan Drouin (lower body) will be a game-time decision on Saturday against Edmonton. He was a late scratch on Wednesday versus Vancouver with a lower-body injury. Drouin has done well as a middle-six forward lately, picking up six points (two goals, four assists) in his last seven appearances. He's had 12 […]

Artturi Lehkonen On Track To Return On Saturday

Colorado Avalanche winger Artturi Lehkonen (illness) is expected to return to the lineup on Saturday against Edmonton. Lehkonen has battled an illness lately, which kept him out of action for two games. He should rejoin the fearsome duo of Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen on the first line. The 28-year-old has had a great time […]

Evan Rodrigues Back From Two-Game Absence Saturday

Florida Panthers forward Evan Rodrigues (lower body) will return from a two-game absence on Saturday against Tampa Bay. He's set for third-line duty with Eetu Luostarinen and Anton Lundell. Rodrigues adds a nice bit of creativity to the lineup, as he's fourth on the team with 26 assists. The 30-year-old has also registered 10 goals […]

Sam Bennett Returns To Panthers Lineup Saturday

Florida Panthers center Sam Bennett (undisclosed) will rejoin the lineup on Saturday against Tampa Bay. After scoring in back-to-back games, Bennett missed Thursday's matchup against Carolina with an undisclosed ailment. The 27-year-old centers the second line in Florida and will be joined by Matthew Tkachuk and Carter Verhaeghe on Saturday. Bennett has totaled 32 points […]

Ilya Samsonov Good To Go Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov will be between the sticks when the team hosts Carolina on Saturday. Samsonov's status for the game was initially thrown up in the air after he was hurt during the morning skate. The Russian netminder has been in spectacular form lately, turning his season around after getting waived and […]

Doug McDermott Remains Sidelined On Saturday

Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) will miss a ninth consecutive contest on Saturday against Brooklyn. The veteran sniper has returned to practice but isn't quite ready to get back to work yet following a calf strain. However, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle has said that McDermott is getting close to his return, so he […]

Jabari Walker Listed As Doubtful For Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) is on the injury report as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against New Orleans. The 21-year-old has been out for five games, but Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups noted earlier in the week that Walker's return is getting close. However, Saturday's game might come too soon for […]

Monte Morris In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Utah. The veteran guard is dealing with hamstring soreness, which has already kept him out for three games. Since joining the T-Wolves in February, Morris has averaged 5.3 points and 2.9 assists in 15.7 minutes. His absence has left […]

Kevin Huerter Questionable To Face Knicks On Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (leg) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Knicks. He's in danger of missing a second consecutive game with a right leg contusion. However, Huerter was a full participant in Friday's practice session, which is a good sign regarding his availability. Huerter's return will likely send Keon Ellis back […]

Cam Reddish Will Remain Out On Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) will remain out on Saturday against Golden State. Reddish is nursing a right ankle sprain and won't be in the lineup for a third consecutive game. Spencer Dinwiddie has a chance to log extra minutes off the pine without Reddish. He's getting a big opportunity to impress, but […]

Anthony Davis Probable To Face Warriors

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is expected to play against the Warriors on Saturday. The All-Star big man has collected a probable tag for the contest. Davis is set to feature in an 18th consecutive game, and he will have plenty to prove after getting outplayed by Domantas Sabonis in the previous matchup. […]

LeBron James Questionable To Play Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's big clash with Golden State. The NBA's all-time leading scorer continues to carry a left ankle problem, but he's missed only a handful of games over the last couple of months. In the last game against Sacramento, James even logged 40 minutes. It's a […]

Lamar Stevens Set To Miss Third Consecutive Game

Memphis Grizzlies forward Lamar Stevens (groin) will remain out for a third consecutive game on Saturday against Oklahoma City. Following a string of solid performances, Stevens picked up an adductor strain, leaving Memphis without another frontcourt option. The trio of Trey Jemison, GG Jackson II, and Jake LaRavia has put in a lot of work […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Won't Play Against Utah

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (illness) will sit out Friday's game against Utah. The talented scorer played through an illness Wednesday versus Portland but won't be able to do the same in Friday's matchup, with the team downgrading him from questionable to out. Bogdanovic also struggled against the Trail Blazers with 3-for-15 shooting, so it's […]

Jalen Johnson Back On Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (ankle) will return to action on Friday against Utah. Atlanta's rising star will be back after missing three games with a right ankle sprain. Johnson only recently faced the Jazz and had a great night with 22 points, 13 rebounds, six assists, and one steal. We could see something similar […]
