San Jose Sharks defenseman Mario Ferraro (upper body) will be in the lineup Tuesday versus Detroit.

Ferraro has […]

J.J. Moser Returns To Coyotes Lineup

Arizona Coyotes defenseman J.J. Moser (upper body) is expected to return from a two-game absence in Tuesday's matchup against the Panthers.

Martin Fehervary A Game-Time Decision On Tuesday

Washington Capitals defenseman Martin Fehervary (upper body) could be back in action on Tuesday against Pittsburgh after rejoining practice on Monday. He skated on the first defensive pairing with a regular jersey, so the signs are encouraging that Fehervary's absence will be limited to only one game. The 24-year-old is a non-factor offensively, having tallied […]

Jesper Fast Won't Play On Tuesday

Carolina Hurricanes winger Jesper Fast (upper body) won't be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers. He was injured at the weekend against Toronto, and it's unclear when Fast can rejoin the action.

Trey Murphy III Questionable For Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (knee) could be sidelined for a second consecutive game, with the team listing him as questionable for Tuesday's action versus Brooklyn.

Dante Exum Exits Early Monday With Heel Issue

Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum exited Monday's loss to Utah with a right heel contusion. He was already considered questionable for the game with the same issue.

Mark Williams Likely To Remain Sidelined Monday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) is unlikely to return to action in Monday's meeting with Denver. He's again listed as doubtful on the injury report. A lower back contusion has kept Williams on the sidelines for 10 games, and the Hornets have no reason to rush him back with the season going nowhere. Nick […]

MarJon Beauchamp Battling An Illness

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward MarJon Beauchamp (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's clash with Indiana. The second-year player is battling an illness. Beauchamp hasn't played a big part in Milwaukee's rotation, but he's shown flashes of very good potential. The 23-year-old is averaging 4.9 points and 2.4 rebounds in 15.1 minutes. Pat Connaughton should soak […]
