Anaheim Ducks winger Rickard Rakell (upper body) will make his first appearance of the month in Friday's clash with the Avalanche. He re-enters the lineup on the second line.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Raimel Tapia went 1-for-3 with a single in a 3-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Friday.

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Landry Shamet (ankle) has not been listed on the team's injury report ahead of Saturday's contest versus the Lakers.

Jamal Murray Will Miss Third Straight Game Friday

Denver Nuggets point/shooting guard Jamal Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against San Antonio due to persistent knee issues.

Rajon Rondo, Reggie Jackson Questionable For Friday

Los Angeles Clippers point guards Rajon Rondo (groin) and Reggie Jackson (eye) have both picked up questionable tags for Friday's contest versus the Rockets.

Khris Middleton, Brook Lopez Out Friday

Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Khris Middleton (knee) and center Brook Lopez (back) have been ruled out for Friday's game against Charlotte.

All healthy Bucks will be in […]

Gary Harris Faces Short-Term Minutes Restriction

Orlando Magic shooting guard/small forward Gary Harris (groin) will be eased back into action after making his team debut Friday.

Brandon Clarke Will Suit Up For Friday’s Game

Memphis Grizzlies power forward/center Brandon Clarke (calf) has been given the green light to get back into action Friday against the Knicks. Clarke missed the team's two previous outings due to a left calf ailment, but he will reclaim his second unit role, with fantasy managers hopeful that he also finds some of his early-season […]

Lonzo Ball Will Miss Friday’s Contest

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Lonzo Ball (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's game versus Philadelphia as he continues to battle a right hip flexor.

Brandon Ingram, Kira Lewis Jr. Will Suit Up Friday

New Orleans Pelicans small/power forward Brandon Ingram (toe) and point/shooting guard Kira Lewis Jr. (calf) have both been given the thumbs up to get back into action Friday against Philadelphia.

Logan Couture A Game-Time Call For Friday

San Jose Sharks center Logan Couture is a game-time decision for Friday's battle with the Kings. The Sharks captain got hurt in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to Anaheim by blocking a shot. He looks probable for Friday's action, with Sharks head coach Bob Boughner saying that he thinks Couture will play, so it seems like fantasy […]

Clint Capela, Danilo Gallinari Will Suit Up For Friday’s Game

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (Achilles) and small/power forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) have both been given the green light to take the floor for Friday's outing against Chicago. Capela, the league's leading rebounder at 14.2 per game, will have missed just one game due to a sore Achilles before reclaiming his spot in the starting […]

Sodiq Yusuff Looking To Break Into Top 10

With a huge chance in Saturday's co-main event to put his stamp on the division, Sodiq Yusuff (11-1) can go 5-for-5 with a victory. Currently ranked 11th in the featherweight division, a win over the 10th-ranked Arnold Allen would bolster his standing in the division. With the ability to end the fight with his dynamic […]

Trent Grisham Activated From Injured List

The San Diego Padres have activated Trent Grisham (hamstring) from the injured list. He is leading off and playing center field in Friday's game against Kohei Arihara and the Texas Rangers.
