Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (knee) will be active and in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Josh Hart Out Again On Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans small forward Josh Hart (quad) will remain on the bench for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This will be the fourth consecutive game he's missed. The 26-year-old suffered a right quad injury in the team's season opener. He was originally questionable for Wednesday's game, so he might be getting close to […]

Nicolas Claxton Out With An Illness On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton will not play in Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. According to Nets reporter Chris Milholen, Claxton is dealing with a non-COVID illness. The 22-year-old started the team's first three games of the year, but he was bumped to the bench in the team's most recent game as they decided […]

Milwaukee Bucks power forward/center Bobby Portis (hamstring) will make his season debut in Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Terry Rozier To Remain Out On Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets point guard Terry Rozier (ankle) will miss his third consecutive game as the team takes on the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. Rozier is battling a right ankle sprain, but it seems as if he's close to returning since he had previously been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game. Rozier has only played in […]

Danilo Gallinari And De'Andre Hunter To Play On Wednesday

The Atlanta Hawks will have two of their top forwards on the floor for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both De'Andre Hunter and Danilo Gallinari (shoulder) will be active for the game. Hunter missed the team's last game due to a non-COVID illness.

Caris LeVert Won't Play In Wednesday's Game

Indiana Pacers shooting guard/small forward Caris LeVert (back) will not make his season debut in Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors, according to Pacers reporter Scott Agness.

Norman Powell Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Norman Powell (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The organization has not given a timetable for Powell's return, but it has only been two days. He is dealing with left patellar tendinopathy, so the Blazers could be cautious with him when he does play. Fantasy […]

Zach LaVine Plans To Play Through Injury

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (thumb) has been a key contributor to the 4-0 start to the season. However, it was announced that LaVine has suffered a small ligament tear in his left thumb. Despite that, the All-Star guard plans to play through the issue. This is mostly going to be a pain tolerance type […]

Anthony Davis Could Sit Versus OKC

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is reportedly dealing with right knee soreness, but has a chance of suiting up. LeBron James (ankle) has already been ruled out, which gives the Lakers more incentive to play Davis. The Lakers would be […]

LeBron James Won't Play On Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He sat out of Tuesday's game after he suffered an ankle injury during the game prior. It appears the Lakers are going to be cautious with their superstar forward. Malik Monk should remain in the starting […]

Kristaps Porzingis Tagged As Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. On Tuesday, head coach Jason Kidd mentioned Porzingis was fine despite pulling him out early the game prior due to back issues. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Mavericks rest Porzingis due to his long injury […]
