Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (knee) won't suit up against the Bulls on Saturday. With the team playing the front half of back-to-back outings, the 34-year-old will get the night off to rest his right knee.

Terry Rozier Remains Questionable Friday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) is questionable to play the Miami Heat on Friday. Rozier remains day-to-day given the consistent questionable tag and should be returning to the lineup at any moment after a three-game absence.

Bam Adebayo, Kyle Lowry Probable For Friday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (knee) and Kyle Lowry (elbow), listed as probable, are expected to suit up for Friday's game against the Hornets. Both Adebayo and Lowry should be out there, though the team could opt to sit one or both of them, as it is the first leg of a back-to-back. Adebayo has […]

Fred Vanvleet Not Bothered By Heavy Minutes

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet has mentioned that he is not concerned with the heavy minutes this season. He continued by saying he put in a ton of work during the offseason to prepare his body for this situation. The increased minutes should come with a higher usage as well.

Ja Morant Falls Just Shy Of Triple-Double

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant fell one rebound shy of a triple-double in Wednesday's loss to Portland.

Russell Westbrook Gets An Unwanted Quadruple-Double

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Russell Westbrook rolled through with his first triple-double of the season in Wednesday's loss to the Thunder, but he also ended up with a quadruple-double by recording 10 turnovers.
