Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (foot) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against Brooklyn. He's dealing with right foot soreness and already missed Tuesday's loss to New Orleans.

Joe Harris Out On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Joe Harris (ankle) won't be available for Thursday's clash with the Mavericks.

Justise Winslow Questionable For Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Justise Winslow (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Heat.

Seattle Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer (lower body) will miss another game Tuesday against the Sabres, and the team has placed him on Injured Reserve.
