Chris Paul, Jae Crowder Headline Suns Questionable Wednesday

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul (hamstring), small/power forward Jae Crowder (foot), and small forward Abdel Nader (ankle) have all been deemed questionable to suit up for Wednesday's contest versus Milwaukee.

Juuse Saros Faces Tampa On Tuesday

Nashville Predators goaltender Juuse Saros is the team's starter for Tuesday's rematch against Tampa. Pekka Rinne had a 31-save effort against the champions on Monday in a 4-1 loss and now it's Saros' turn to try and cool down the Bolts, who sit on a five-game winning streak.

Jaylen Brown Will Suit Up For Tuesday’s Contest

Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown (knee) has been cleared to return for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, stemming his absence due to knee soreness at two contests.

Jake Oettinger Gets Another Start

Dallas Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger will make his second consecutive start on Tuesday against Chicago. The rookie netminder took his first L of the season at the weekend against the Blackhawks in a 2-1 overtime loss despite a solid 33-save performance.

Mikko Koskinen Returns To Edmonton's Crease

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mikko Koskinen will get the nod for Tuesday's rematch with the Senators.

It's a great […]

Thomas Greiss Likely To Start On Tuesday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Thomas Greiss is the likely starter in goal for Tuesday's matchup with the Florida Panthers.

Greiss started the season with a nine-game losing run but […]

He's hit .281/.344/.449 with 21 home runs […]

Patrick Cantlay The Top Option At Pebble Beach

Patrick Cantlay is set to return to action this week in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Cantlay posted a runner-up finish in his most recent start at the American Express.

Jrue Holiday Won't Travel With Bucks

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday will not travel with the team for their upcoming matchup against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday.

Although, Khris Middleton is likely going to […]

De'Andre Hunter To Miss Significant Time

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is expected to miss around seven to 10 weeks, according to general manager Travis Schlenk.

Kyrie Irving Probable For Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (finger) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo (rest) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Derrick Rose Unlikely To Play Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose is unlikely to be cleared in time for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. Rose was recently acquired by the Knicks from Detroit in exchange for guard Dennis Smith Jr., but it's unclear if Smith will pass his physical in time for Rose to play. His absence would likely […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Making Progress

Derrick White Resting On Tuesday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (rest) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors.

Devonte' Graham Ruled Out For Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He continues to be ruled out a day in advance, which means Graham is likely going to miss more time. LaMelo Ball has been outstanding since joining the starting five.
