Anthony Davis Won't Play on Sunday Night

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (calf) won't play on Sunday versus the Trail Blazers. It's unknown how much longer AD will be off the floor.

Derrick Jones Jr. Won't Return on Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 28-year-old logged 11 minutes. Unfortunately, that's all fantasy managers would get out of Jones before he suffered a knee injury caused by a loose ball dive by Jaylen Brown. He needed assistance off the floor, and his […]

Kristaps Porzingis Questionable for Sunday's Meeting with Phoenix

Atlanta Hawks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Phoenix Suns.

Domantas Sabonis Considered Questionable for Sunday

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis (ribs) is considered questionable for Sunday's clash against the San Antonio Spurs.
