Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (finger) will re-enter the lineup on Friday against the Denver Nuggets. He is back in the fold after missing two games due to a dislocated finger.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo (toe) has drawn a questionable tag for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz due to the toe injury that kept him out for over a month.

Anthony Edwards Suspended, Will Miss Friday's Game

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (suspension) has been suspended for receiving his 16th technical foul of the season and will miss Friday's game against the Utah Jazz.

Bradley Beal Remains Out On Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (calf) has been ruled out for the second consecutive game with calf tightness.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves for injury management on his lower back.
