Marcus Smart Probable To Suit Up On Christmas

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (hip) is listed as probable for Sunday's Christmas clash with Milwaukee.

Will Barton Listed Out On Friday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Will Barton (back) won't take the court Friday against Sacramento. The veteran is listed as out with lower back soreness.

Josh Okogie Ready To Go Friday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Josh Okogie (hip) is ready to play Friday against the Grizzlies. He is carrying a sore right hip and it forced him to miss Wednesday's battle with the Wizards.

Washington Wizards point/shooting guard Delon Wright (hamstring) has been cleared to take part in Friday's contest vs. the Kings, paving the way for his first game action since Oct. 25 due to a right hamstring strain.

Terry Rozier Earns Questionable Designation For Friday

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard Terry Rozier (hip) has been listed as questionable to play in Friday's contest vs. the Lakers due to a right hip contusion that has kept him sidelined for the past two outings. Rozier's absence has coincided with the team getting both LaMelo Ball and Gordon Hayward back in the mix, while […]

Memphis Lists Desmond Bane Questionable To Play Friday

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Desmond Bane (toe) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's contest vs. the Suns, as he works his way back from a sprained right big toe.

John Wall Questionable To Play On Friday Against 76ers

Los Angeles Clippers guard John Wall (ankle) has been given the questionable tag for their Friday night contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. Over the last month or so, Wall has seemed to get a night off after playing three consecutive games. He played in the team's last three games so he now popped up on […]

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson provided both the second-highest scoring and rebounding marks on the team during their home win on Thursday night.

Devin Booker Won't Play Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The star guard will miss his third game in a row due to groin soreness.

LaMelo Ball Collects His First Triple-Double Of The Season

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball took eight games to register his first triple-double of the season. Technically it was game number 32 for the team, but only his eighth so far this year.

Terry Rozier Downgraded To Out On Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (hip) won't play against the Clippers. He was listed as doubtful, so fantasy managers had expected this all along.

Alex Caruso Won't Return To Matchup Against Atlanta

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (shoulder) won't return to Wednesday's matchup against Atlanta. The 28-year-old was entering this contest on the injury report for another ailment, a right elbow sprain, so it's possible he'll miss some time moving ahead. He'd finish with five points and a steal in 10 minutes of work, so he didn't […]

Austin Reaves Sidelined On Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (ankle) won't play against Sacramento, marking his second consecutive absence because of a sprained left ankle. Russell Westbrook (foot) is out as well, so L.A. will be shorthanded in the backcourt on Wednesday night. As a result, Dennis Schroder, who had 30 points in the loss to Phoenix, should […]

Collin Sexton Questionable Against The Wizards

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. The 23-year-old has missed his previous seven games because of a hamstring strain. However, it appears he's at least moving in the right direction toward making his return. Sexton had been playing well while filling in Mike Conley in the […]

Franz Wagner A Game-Time Call Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Franz Wagner (ankle) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup against Houston. He sprained his right ankle Monday versus Atlanta and the early signs weren't good regarding his availability for Wednesday, but Wagner went through the shootaround and it looks like he is trending toward playing against the Rockets. However, if Wagner […]

Lamar Stevens Doubtful For Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Lamar Stevens (knee) is regarded as doubtful for Wednesday's game against Milwaukee. He has an issue with his right knee and could be forced to miss a third consecutive game. Isaac Okoro should remain in the starting unit if Stevens can't return. The 21-year-old has had a couple of strong outings, but […]

Quentin Grimes Considered Doubtful For Wednesday's Game

New York Knicks guard/forward Quentin Grimes (ankle) is considered doubtful for Wednesday's matchup against Toronto.

Grimes posted 19 points in Tuesday's win against Golden State, and he's also managed […]

Killian Hayes Questionable On Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Philadelphia. A troublesome left knee could force the 21-year-old to sit out his first contest of the season. Hayes has been very inconsistent in recent weeks, but he's done well overall this month, averaging close to 12 points per game with 3.4 rebounds […]
