Paolo Banchero Making More Progress

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (oblique) remained out ahead of Wednesday's matchup versus the Pistons. However, he was spotted before the game getting "on-court" work.

Braden Shewmake Designated For Assignment

According to James Fegan of Baseball America, the Chicago White Sox designated shortstop Braden Shewmake for assignment to make room for left-handed pitcher Tyler Gilbert.

Fortunately, he's at least stayed healthy, missing just his second game of the year on Wednesday night. Without him, Trey Lyles […]

Dereck Lively II Will Play On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (hip) will play on Wednesday against the Rockets.

Gradey Dick Will Suit Up Versus The Nets

Toronto Raptors guard Gradey Dick (hamstring) will suit up on Wednesday versus the Nets. The 21-year-old is having a quality season, averaging 17.6 points. He missed the Raptors' 54-point loss to the Celtics because of hamstring tightness. Unfortunately for Dick's fantasy managers, he may have trouble staying as productive, considering Immanuel Quickley (elbow) will return […]

Brandin Podziemski Unavailable For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) won't play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday due to an abdominal strain. Podziemski's injury occurred during a Warriors win on Saturday against the Suns.

Even better, Immanuel Quickley (elbow) will return from a […]

Ladd McConkey, Joshua Palmer Miss Wednesday's Practice

Los Angeles Chargers wide receivers Ladd McConkey (toe) and Joshua Palmer (foot) were both listed as non-participants in the first practice of the week on Wednesday.

Dalen Terry Cleared To Play Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Dalen Terry (ankle) will remain in the lineup on Wednesday against Washington. There was a small question mark over him when Chicago placed Terry on the injury report with a probable tag. He's nursing a right ankle sprain. However, the injury isn't serious enough to keep Terry off the court. The 22-year-old […]

Jalen Smith Available On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward/center Jalen Smith (ankle) will play against Washington on Wednesday. The team has upgraded him from probable to available. Smith will continue to work as Nikola Vucevic's backup at the center position. This severely limits his fantasy appeal, but Smith did well in the role on Monday against Charlotte. He finished a 115-108 […]

Stephen Curry Listed As Questionable For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (thumb) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers due to a right thumb strain.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice session. Watson suffered a bruised left knee in the Week 16 win over the New Orleans Saints and didn't practice or play in last week's loss to the division-rival Minnesota Vikings.
