Bojan Bogdanovic Out For A Fourth Consecutive Game

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles) has been officially ruled out for a fourth consecutive game Thursday.

The veteran has enjoyed his first year in Detroit, leading the Pistons with […]

Jrue Holiday Back On Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday (neck) will be back from a one-game absence Thursday against the Nets.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Ruled Out Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hand) has been ruled out for Thursday's meeting with Brooklyn.

Chicago Blackhawks winger Taylor Raddysh scored two goals in Wednesday's 4-3 defeat to Detroit.

Detroit Red Wings winger Robby Fabbri sustained a lower-body injury in Wednesday's game against Chicago.

The 27-year-old has tallied seven goals and […]

Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov suffered a lower-body injury in Wednesday's encounter with Winnipeg.

John Carlson Rejoins Team In Practice

Washington Capitals defenseman John Carlson (face) skated with the team Wednesday for the first time since taking a slap shot to the head in a game in December.

Cam Talbot Set To Miss Three Weeks

Ottawa Senators goaltender Cam Talbot will sit out the next three weeks of action to recover from a lower-body injury.

With Anton Forsberg (knee) also out, Ottawa's playoff hopes will now hinge […]

Pierre-Luc Dubois A Game-Time Call Wednesday

Winnipeg Jets center Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Monte Morris Questionable On Wednesday

Washington Wizards point guard Monte Morris (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Delon Wright has been starting in […]

Kevin Love Upgraded To Probable Wednesday

Miami Heat forward/center Kevin Love (ribs) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Cleveland.

Denver Nuggets forward/center Vlatko Cancar (wrist) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Chicago.

Boston Celtics point guard Payton Pritchard (ankle) is regarded as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Portland. He's bothered by left heel pain and might have to sit out for a sixth time in the past nine games.

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles) may be shut down for the rest of the season, according to NBA insider Shams Charania.

Colorado Avalanche winger Valeri Nichushkin had a goal and three assists in Tuesday's 6-0 win over San Jose, recording his second career four-point game.

Colorado Avalanche goaltender Alexandar Georgiev recorded probably the easiest shutout of his career on Tuesday against the Sharks, kicking away 13 shots in a 6-0 victory.
