Blake Wheeler Remains Out On Saturday

Winnipeg Jets forward Blake Wheeler (upper body) has been medically cleared to return to action, but he won't play on Saturday against Edmonton. The Jets captain has been missing since April 5.

Killian Hayes Sits Out Saturday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Cory Joseph is expected to return after sitting out on Friday for rest purposes. He'll […]

Davis Bertans Sitting Out Versus Pistons

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

Mike Conley, Rudy Gobert Resting On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (rest) and center Rudy Gobert (rest) have been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's not shocking that the Jazz are playing it safe here. The Jazz will also be without Donovan Mitchell (ankle) and Derrick Favors […]

Donovan Mitchell Out At Least One Week

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is expected to miss multiple games after suffering a right ankle sprain.

Dennis Schroder, Markieff Morris Playing On Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder (foot) and forward Markieff Morris (ankle) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz.

Evan White Hits His First Homer

Seattle Mariners first baseman Evan White hit his first home run of the season Friday, off Astros reliever Blake Taylor, in the bottom of the eighth inning.
