Xavier Tillman Sr. Unable To Suit Up Thursday

According to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com, Boston Celtics forward/center Xavier Tillman Sr. (illness) will not play against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday due to an illness.

Sam Hauser Will Not Play On Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser (back) will not be in the lineup on Thursday against Chicago. He's battling lower back spasms, sitting out for the second time in three games.

Tobias Harris Set To Return On Thursday Night

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (thumb) will officially return from a one-game absence due to a sprained right thumb.

Kristaps Porzingis Available Thursday

Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (heel) is good to go for Thursday's matchup against Chicago.

Scottie Barnes Cleared To Return Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) will return from a two-game absence on Thursday against Brooklyn. The team has upgraded him from questionable to available.

Bradley Beal Available Thursday

On Thursday, Phoenix Suns guard/forward Bradley Beal (knee) is available to suit up against the Indiana Pacers. Beal has missed two consecutive contests with swelling in his left knee.

Scottie Barnes Listed As Questionable Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) might return to action on Thursday against Brooklyn, with the team listing him as questionable for the game.

Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (heel) is in danger of missing Thursday's game against Chicago, with the team considering him questionable for the matchup.

However, Porzingis participated in […]

Domantas Sabonis Iffy For Meeting With Lakers

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis (back) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Lakers. He didn't practice on Wednesday and has landed on the injury report with a back contusion.

Anthony Davis Likely Good To Go Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) is considered probable for Thursday's action against Sacramento.
