JaMychal Green Questionable Friday

Golden State Warriors forward/center JaMychal Green (wrist) is a late addition to the injury report ahead of Friday's matchup against the Knicks. He is dealing with right wrist soreness and is considered questionable for the game. Green has been a solid backup player for the Warriors, averaging 4.8 points a night with 4.5 rebounds in […]

Mitchell Robinson Misses Another Game

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) still won't be able to return Friday versus Golden State. He's been out for seven games and was regarded as doubtful for Friday, so ultimately his absence doesn't come as a surprise. Robinson has had a disappointing start to the season after getting re-signed in the summer, and […]

Jonathan Kuminga Ready To Play

Golden State Warriors forward/center Jonathan Kuminga (illness) is officially available for Friday's contest against New York. He missed Wednesday night's action versus Phoenix with a non-COVID illness but is now good to go. Kuminga had 15 points and three rebounds with a pair of assists in his most recent appearance, but it was a blowout […]

Chris Paul Misses A Fifth Consecutive Game

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul (heel) will remain out for Friday's matchup against Utah. The veteran floor general is carrying a sore right heel and is sidelined for a fifth consecutive game. Paul's absence has opened the door to the starting lineup for Cameron Payne, who has grabbed his opportunity with both hands. The […]

JaVale McGee Back In Mavericks Lineup

Dallas Mavericks center JaVale McGee (neck) is officially available for Friday's matchup against Denver. He hasn't played for two games but was initially already probable for the contest and it's now confirmed that the veteran can play. McGee is playing a very small role in the rotation, but he could get a much busier night […]

Reggie Bullock Available Friday Night

Dallas Mavericks forward Reggie Bullock (neck) has been able to shake off a questionable tag and is ready to play Friday versus Denver. The 31-year-old sniper has been dealing with a neck strain for a bit, but it doesn't appear to be serious enough for him to miss any game time. Bullock is having a […]

Aaron Gordon Sits Out Friday's Action

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (illness) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against Dallas. His status for the game was already iffy when Gordon missed the morning shootout and he hasn't been able to recover well enough from a non-COVID illness to be game-ready. The Nuggets are very shorthanded right now and this should […]

Zion Williamson Still Out Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) will miss another game Friday versus Boston. He has a right foot contusion, which is a bit of a worry because the same foot has previously caused him serious trouble. Williamson plays a massive role for the Pelicans, but the team seems to be just fine without him, […]

Thatcher Demko Tries To End His Struggles Versus Kings

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will make his 12th start of the campaign Friday versus the Kings, hoping to record only his second victory of the season. It's been a miserable year so far for the 26-year-old, with Demko going 1-8-2, giving up over four goals per game (4.02) and registering a poor .874 save […]

Artem Zub Comes Off Injured Reserve

Ottawa Senators defenseman Artem Zub (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve and looks set to rejoin the lineup for Saturday's matchup against New Jersey. He's sat out the past nine games while dealing with an upper-body ailment. The Russian rearguard skated with Erik Brannstrom in Friday's practice, and the team has reassigned Nikita […]

Philipp Grubauer Activated From Injured Reserve

Seattle Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer (lower body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Friday and appears set to rejoin the action. The German netminder has been on the shelf since getting injured in a game against Colorado on Oct. 21. He has yet to win a game this season through three starts, going 0-1-1 with […]

Aleksander Barkov Trending Towards Returning Saturday

Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov (illness) looks set to return to the lineup Saturday versus Calgary. He was a late scratch for Thursday's matchup against Dallas with a non-COVID illness, but according to head coach Paul Maurice, the Panthers captain is feeling much better now and the team is "optimistic" about getting Barkov back for […]

Nick Perbix Out Saturday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Nick Perbix (undisclosed) isn't expected to be in the lineup Saturday versus Nashville. The 24-year-old rookie suffered an undisclosed injury in Thursday's 4-1 win over Calgary and missed Friday's practice. He is considered day-to-day. Perbix is only a couple of games removed from an impressive four-game scoring streak, so he's gotten […]

Travis Konecny Dealing With A Hand Injury

Philadelphia Flyers right wing Travis Konecny missed the third period of Thursday's 4-1 loss to Boston with a hand injury. The 25-year-old was able to log 11:13 of ice time before being forced to call it a night because of an injury to his right hand. It's currently unknown if Konecny is forced to miss […]

Colton Parayko A Game-Time Decision Thursday

St. Louis Blues defenseman Colton Parayko (undisclosed) will once again be a game-time decision for Thursday's clash with the Capitals.

Parayko was actually on the ice for pre-game warm-ups but clearly didn't feel well enough as he ended […]

Samuel Girard Still Out Versus Carolina

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Samuel Girard (lower body) will miss a fourth consecutive game Thursday against Carolina. He has been listed as day-to-day since dropping out of the lineup, but the 24-year-old is struggling to shake off a lower-body problem. Girard has been able to get four points in 11 games this season, adding 15 shots, […]

Ty Dellandrea Fine For Thursday

Dallas Stars forward Ty Dellandrea (lower body) is good to go Thursday versus Florida. He got hurt whilst blocking a shot in Tuesday's loss to Tampa Bay and had X-rays done, but they came back negative and the 22-year-old is ready for action Thursday. Dellandrea has produced a solid year on Dallas' third line, grabbing […]

Erik Cernak Misses Another Game

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Erik Cernak (undisclosed) won't be available for a third consecutive game Thursday versus Calgary. The 25-year-old has been dealing with an undisclosed issue since the start of the week and it's currently unclear when Cernak will be able to play again. Tampa's blue line is also without Cal Foote (upper body), […]

Andre Burakovsky Good To Go Thursday

Seattle Kraken winger Andre Burakovsky will be in the lineup on Thursday despite sitting out Wednesday's practice. He needed a maintenance day and should be fully game-ready against the Rangers. It's been a big step back moving from the Stanley Cup-winning Colorado Avalanche to the Seattle Kraken, but Burakovsky has enjoyed his season, getting four […]

Emil Bemstrom A Game-Time Call Thursday

Columbus Blue Jackets winger Emil Bemstrom (undisclosed) is a game-time call for Thursday's game against Montreal. He missed Wednesday's practice with an undisclosed issue and it's unknown if Bemstrom is 100 percent healthy. However, he did join the team for the morning skate, so it appears that Bemstrom is likely to play. He's been a […]

Jake Bean Out Indefinitely With Shoulder Injury

Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Jake Bean (shoulder) has been placed on Injured Reserve and will be out indefinitely. The Blue Jackets are cursed with injuries and Bean is the latest player to go down, having hurt his shoulder in Tuesday's win over Philadelphia. Bean has been able to register one goal and five assists in […]

Keldon Johnson Picks Up A Questionable Tag

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (ankle) has picked up a late questionable tag for Thursday's meeting with the Kings. There haven't previously been any reports of him carrying an injury, but Johnson is now on the injury report with left ankle soreness. Being without Johnson would obviously be a massive blow for the team, […]

Keegan Murray Likely Won't Play Thursday

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (back) has been downgraded to doubtful and is not expected to play Thursday versus the Spurs. He exited Tuesday's win over Brooklyn with a back issue and was already questionable for the contest. It's been an unfortunate turn of events for the 22-year-old rookie after he had one the best […]

Cory Joseph Questionable Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Cory Joseph (hip) is questionable for Thursday's road game against the Clippers. He is carrying a sore left hip and already sat out Monday's loss to Toronto. The Pistons could really use Joseph right now, with Cade Cunningham (shin) having dropped out of the lineup and slated to miss at least three […]

Justise Winslow Questionable For Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Justise Winslow (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Brooklyn. He has been battling an illness lately and it's already resulted in Winslow sitting out two games. The 26-year-old had just enjoyed his best form of the season before getting knocked out by the illness, so it's very unfortunate […]

Luke Kennard Out For At Least Two Games

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Luke Kennard (calf) won't be available for the rest of the week, with him set to miss Thursday's matchup against Detroit and Saturday's clash with San Antonio. He played for just three minutes in Tuesday's loss to Dallas and is dealing with a right calf strain. Kennard is set to be […]

Kawhi Leonard Upgraded To Questionable

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) has been upgraded to questionable and could return to the court Thursday versus Detroit. He has missed 12 games with a troublesome right knee after also playing in only two of the team's first three games of the campaign. The Clippers could really use Kawhi Thursday, with Paul […]

Elvis Merzlikins Set To Miss Thursday's Action

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins (lower body) looks set to miss Thursday's battle with Montreal after he exited Tuesday's 5-4 win over Philadelphia early with an injury. The team has made an emergency recall of Daniil Tarasov from the minors. Merzlikins has had an awful time this season and sits on a 2-5-0 record, […]

Marc-Andre Fleury Placed On Injured Reserve

Minnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury (upper body) has landed on Injured Reserve. He missed Wednesday's practice after producing a 23-save effort in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Nashville, and Fleury now can't return to the active roster for at least seven days. Backup goalie Filip Gustavsson will be between the pipes for Thursday's matchup against Pittsburgh, […]

Ryan O'Reilly Continues To Heat Up

St. Louis Blues center Ryan O'Reilly helped his team to a 5-2 win over Chicago Wednesday night, producing a short-handed goal and delivering one assist. His goal, which came 8:08 into the second period, ended up being the game-winning tally. O'Reilly's assist came a few minutes before the first intermission when Calle Rosen scored. The […]
