Andre Drummond Available Wednesday Against Brooklyn

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (wrist) is expected to play Wednesday night against the Brooklyn Nets.

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee, quad) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He's expected to come off the bench for his season debut.

Al Horford is Questionable for Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Al Horford (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
