Jeff Teague Questionable on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague (knee) is questionable to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.

Derrick Favors Probable Versus Wizards

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (ankle) is probable for Wednesday's contest against the Washington Wizards. It's odd to see Favors pop up on the injury report with an ankle injury.

Otto Porter Probable for Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter (hip, back) is probable to play against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. Head coach Scott Brooks said Porter will be "good to go" for Wednesday's contest.

Tyus Jones Drops Eight Dimes

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Tyus Jones had a good passing game in a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night.

Denzel Valentine Shows Off His All-Around Game

Chicago Bulls forward/guard Denzel Valentine displayed his all-around game Monday, finishing with 19 points on 7-for-13 shooting from the field, five triples, eight rebounds and five assists in the loss against the Houston Rockets.

Spencer Dinwiddie Balls Out In Disappointing Loss

Brooklyn Nets point guard Spencer Dinwiddie attempted to put his team on his back against the Raptors but came up short in the closing moments of overtime.
