Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague is questionable to suit up Sunday versus the Los Angeles Lakers due to left ankle soreness.

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Allen Crabbe has been listed as questionable to participate in Sunday’s contest versus the Charlotte Hornets due to a sore right knee.

Los Angeles Clippers power forward JaMychal Green has missed each of his team’s two previous games due to a tailbone contusion and is questionable to return to the mix for Sunday’s contest versus the Washington Wizards.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Rodney Hood (Achilles) will miss the rest of the season after suffering an injury against the Lakers.

Bazemore likely […]

Dillon Brooks is Questionable for Saturday
Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz.
