Donovan Mitchell Likely to Return on Monday Night

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) is probable heading into Monday's matchup with Charlotte. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. Tyrese Proctor ended up taking his place in the rotation, finishing with 16 points, six rebounds, three assists, and one steal. If Mitchell suffers a setback, Proctor would presumably remain […]

Jakob Poeltl Back in the Lineup on Sunday Night

Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (back) will return from a two-game absence on Sunday night versus Brooklyn. He's getting back on the floor at a perfect time, considering the Nets are one of the worst defensive clubs in the National Basketball Association. With Poeltl available, Sandro Mamukelashvili, who had 24 points and five rebounds on […]

Alexandre Sarr Ruled Out Against San Antonio

Washington Wizards center Alexandre Sarr (adductor) won't suit up against the Spurs. He missed six games because of this issue. However, the 20-year-old has appeared in the previous two contests, most recently amassing an 18-point, 11-rebound double-double in Saturday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies. With Marvin Bagley III (calf) also out, Tristan Vukcevic is expected […]

Marvin Bagley III Ruled Out Against San Antonio

Washington Wizards center Marvin Bagley III (calf) won't play on Sunday against the Spurs. Alexandre Sarr (adductor) is also unavailable, so the Wizards will be shorthanded at the five spot. Tristan Vukcevic, who had four points and three rebounds in his only start this season, is expected to handle most of the work in the […]

Davion Mitchell Available on Sunday Night

Miami Heat forward Davion Mitchell (ankle) will play on Sunday against the Knicks. He didn't play in Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics, although the ankle sprain won't keep him off the floor for more than a game. The 27-year-old has averaged 9.9 points, 1.3 steals, and a career-high 7.7 assists this season. With Tyler […]

Andrew Wiggins Cleared to Play on Sunday Night

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (back) will play on Sunday versus the Knicks after missing Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics. The 30-year-old isn't having the best season, averaging 16.3 points, the second-lowest mark of his career. However, Tyler Herro (toe) remains sidelined, meaning Wiggins could pick up more of the slack on the scoring […]

Mike Conley Nears Return After Missing Four Games

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Milwaukee after missing four straight contests. Any return would likely come with minutes restrictions, capping short-term upside while stabilizing Minnesota's second-unit playmaking. If Conley remains out, Bones Hyland continues to benefit from added ball-handling and shot creation, keeping him in the […]

Brandon Clarke Exits After Brief Appearance Against Wizards

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Brandon Clarke (calf) exited early and did not return against Washington, finishing with two points, three rebounds, one steal, and four minutes. The setback comes as Clarke was still ramping up after a lengthy layoff that has already cost him 26 games this season, keeping his role unstable. With Clarke sidelined, Santi […]

Derrick Jones Jr. Nears Return From Sprained MCL

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) has progressed to five-on-five work and is nearing a return from a sprained MCL after missing 15 games since Nov. 17. Jones is expected to face minutes restrictions initially, but his eventual return could reshape the wing rotation. He averaged 9.2 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 […]

Herbert Jones Head Injury Cuts Night Short

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (head) was ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's game against Indiana, finishing with five points, three rebounds, three assists, one steal, and 12 minutes. Jones has averaged 10.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 2.6 steals, and 22 minutes over his last five, so any missed time dents his […]

Ivica Zubac Leaves Early After Suffering Left Ankle Injury

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac (ankle) exited early and did not return against the Lakers, finishing with five points, two rebounds, one assist, and 11 minutes. Zubac had been steady recently, averaging 14.0 points, 9.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 29.7 minutes over his last five, so any absence would materially impact the […]

Luka Doncic Exits Early With Left Leg Contusion

Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (leg) exited early and did not return against the Clippers, finishing with 12 points, five rebounds, two assists, and 20 minutes. The injury places his short-term availability in question and creates immediate fantasy ripple effects. LeBron James handled the late offense, scoring 36 points in 38 minutes, and remains […]

Jalen Smith Expected to Remain in Lineup Sunday

Chicago Bulls center Jalen Smith (quadriceps) carries a probable tag on the injury report ahead of a clash against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday. He is dealing with a left quadriceps contusion. However, Smith has played in each of the last four games, and the probable tag suggests he will remain in the lineup against […]

Ayo Dosunmu Probable for Meeting With Hawks

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) is listed as probable for Sunday's tilt against the Atlanta Hawks. On Friday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Dosunmu returned to the lineup after missing three games due to thumb injuries. He was eased back into action, logging 14 minutes off the bench. He had eight points, three assists, and […]

Coby White Iffy for Sunday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) has been tagged as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. White has overcome calf issues but is now nursing an ankle problem. He has played in six consecutive contests, averaging 18.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 28.2 minutes per game. Tre Jones and Ayo Dosunmu […]

Andrew Wiggins May Remain Out Sunday

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (back) is considered questionable for Sunday's Eastern Conference clash against the New York Knicks. The veteran is experiencing lower back pain, which could sideline him for a second straight game. Wiggins' absence on Friday against the Boston Celtics gave Jaime Jaquez Jr. a chance to make his first start of […]

Davion Mitchell Questionable for Sunday

Miami Heat point guard Davion Mitchell (ankle) has been listed as questionable for a meeting with the New York Knicks on Sunday. Due to an ankle sprain, Mitchell skipped Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics and may now miss a second consecutive game. Mitchell's absence allowed Kasparas Jakucionis to make his first career start, and […]

Tyler Herro to Miss Fourth Straight Game Sunday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe) will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game on Sunday against the New York Knicks. He has been battling a toe injury for a while, appearing in only one of Miami's last six games. With Davion Mitchell (ankle) also out, Kasparas Jakucionis made his first career start on Friday […]

Trae Young Available for Sunday's Tilt

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (knee) is not on the injury report for Sunday's meeting with the Chicago Bulls. After returning from a knee injury, Young sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Friday against the San Antonio Spurs. In his return to action a day earlier against the Charlotte Hornets, Young […]

Doug McDermott Active on Saturday

Sacramento Kings forward Doug McDermott (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was initially listed as questionable for the game as the veteran is dealing with a sore left knee. McDermott has not had much of an opportunity to show his talents this season, logging only 11 minutes across two […]

Rui Hachimura Misses Battle of Los Angeles

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (groin) won't be in the lineup on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. The team has downgraded Hachimura from questionable to out, marking the second absence of the season for the Japanese forward. The Lakers' frontcourt will also be without the services of Deandre Ayton (elbow), so Jarred […]

Jerami Grant Won't Play Saturday Night, Kris Murray Joins Starting Unit

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (Achilles) has been ruled out for Saturday's encounter with the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has had a heavy workload lately and will take Saturday night off due to a sore left Achilles tendon. Portland listed Grant as questionable on the initial injury report. Kris Murray has been announced as […]

Tristan da Silva Out, Jonathan Isaac Returns for Magic Saturday

Orlando Magic forward Tristan da Silva (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's clash against the Utah Jazz, while forward Jonathan Isaac (hip) is returning to the lineup. Both players were originally listed as questionable on the injury report. Da Silva will be absent for a second consecutive game and Isaac will help fill some […]

Jalen Suggs Out Against Jazz

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (hip) will miss a second consecutive contest on Saturday against the Utah Jazz, as the team has downgraded his status from doubtful to out. Suggs can't play due to a hip contusion, putting Tyus Jones and Anthony Black in a position to see more minutes on the court. With Suggs […]

Lauri Markkanen Misses Second Consecutive Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (groin) has been downgraded from doubtful to out ahead of tip-off on Saturday against the Orlando Magic. He is managing a right groin injury and won't be available for a second consecutive contest. In Markkanen's absence, Kyle Filipowski will likely keep his starting spot, with Brice Sensabaugh and Taylor Hendricks […]

Grayson Allen Unavailable Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) will miss a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Golden State Warriors. He is carrying a sore right knee, and his absence isn't surprising, as the team initially listed Allen as questionable for the game. Allen's previous absence was also against the Warriors on Thursday night. It allowed […]

Jonathan Kuminga Misses Saturday's Action Due to Illness

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (illness) will not suit up on Saturday against the Phoenix Suns. He was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness and has now been ruled out. Kuminga has been in and out of the rotation lately, so Warriors head coach Steve Kerr probably already had […]

Cam Spencer Makes Third Career Start Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Cam Spencer will join the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against the Washington Wizards, replacing Santi Aldama. Spencer struggled in his only previous start this season, finishing with four points, four rebounds, four assists, and two steals in a 117-104 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 2. However, he was excellent […]

Cam Whitmore, Jamir Watkins Out Against Grizzlies

Washington Wizards forwards Cam Whitmore (shoulder) and Jamir Watkins (illness) have been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. The duo was initially listed as questionable for the game. Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) will also exit the lineup against Memphis, opening up playing time for the likes of Justin Champagnie, Tre Johnson, Will Riley, […]

Bilal Coulibaly Departs Lineup Saturday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) won't be in the lineup for the first leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the Memphis Grizzlies.

The veteran will help to […]
