Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (thumb) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni.

Kemba Walker Might Suit Up on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) has a chance to play in Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He has already been ruled out for Tuesday's game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. It sounds like the Celtics are taking it slow and letting Walker get back to full speed. Fantasy owners should check back on […]

Brook Lopez is Probable for Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (back) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He sat out of Monday's game against the Washington Wizards due to back soreness.

Frank Ntilikina is Doubtful Versus Charlotte

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (groin) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He did not play in Monday's game due to a lingering groin issue.

Elfrid Payton is Expected to Return on Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He missed each of the last two games due to right ankle soreness.

Damian Lillard Will Sit Versus Celtics

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. This marks the third game in a row that Lillard has missed due to a groin issue.

Wilson Chandler is Questionable Versus Wizards

Brooklyn Nets forward Wilson Chandler (personal) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Fantasy owners should have a better idea about his status following Wednesday's shootaround. Rodions Kurucs and Garrett Temple should be more involved if Chandler is unable to play.

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell departed a situation in Golden State where he was the primary offensive weapon on a nightly basis, just to arrive in Minnesota and find himself in nearly the same situation.
