Jamal Murray Questionable Against Suns

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (concussion) is questionable to play against the Phoenix Suns on Friday.

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (illness) is expected to play against the Sacramento Kings on Friday. He participated in shootaround and is on track to rejoin the starting five.

Gordon made 11 of his 19 shot attempts, including a 7-for-13 night from behind the arc. Houston's top bench player also had three rebounds and three assists.

James Harden Struggles In Return

Houston Rockets shooting guard James Harden made his return from a hamstring injury in Thursday's win over Minnesota, but the Rockets star looked a little rusty.

Robert Covington Only Scores Five Points in Team-High 40 Minutes

Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington is really in a funk and seems to have lost his confidence. Covington only shot the ball five times in Boston, finishing with five points.

T.J. McConnell Picks up the Slack Against the Celtics

Evan Fournier's Shot Not Dropping Thursday

Aaron Gordon Ice-Cold from Deep
