Matt Ryan Remains Sidelined Monday

New Orleans Pelicans small forward Matt Ryan (calf) will miss a fifth consecutive game Monday versus Utah.

Trey Murphy III Out For Another Game On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (knee) will remain on the shelf for Monday's meeting with Utah.

CJ McCollum Remains Out On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (lung) will miss a 12th consecutive game Monday versus the Jazz as he continues to recover from a small pneumothorax in his right lung.

Joe Harris Remains On The Sidelines Monday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Joe Harris (shoulder) will be absent for a 10th straight game on Monday against Washington. The veteran sniper continues to nurse a shoulder strain.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jaden Springer (illness) could be unavailable for a second consecutive game Monday versus the Lakers, with the team listing him as questionable for the matchup. The 21-year-old sat out Saturday's game against the Thunder with an illness and hasn't yet fully recovered, which leaves his status in doubt for another game. Springer […]

Philadelphia 76ers small forward Danuel House Jr. (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Monday's big game against the Lakers.

Saros allowed five goals in total in […]

Brenden Dillon Considered A Game-Time Decision Sunday

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Brenden Dillon (undisclosed) is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's matchup versus Nashville. The 33-year-old has yet to miss a game in 2023-24, but he didn't participate in the morning skate, which has left a question mark hanging over him ahead of Sunday's game. Dillon mostly brings the muscle to the Winnipeg […]

Nashville Predators defenseman Luke Schenn (lower body) could be back in action on Sunday versus Winnipeg. The 34-year-old has missed all but one game this season, but the team has activated him from Injured Reserve, and Schenn is considered a game-time decision for the clash.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (ankle) won't be available for Saturday's matchup against the Lakers, missing a second consecutive game.

LeBron James Questionable For Another Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) continues to carry a questionable tag ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Cavaliers.

Cam Reddish Questionable For Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (groin) might be forced to sit out a second consecutive game on Saturday against Cleveland. Reddish hurt his left adductor against Utah on Tuesday and couldn't take the court a day later versus Dallas. He hasn't yet been completely ruled out for Saturday, which is a good sign, but […]

Lindy Waters III Questionable On Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Lindy Waters III (back) is regarded as questionable for Saturday's meeting with Philadelphia.
