Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (nose) is expected to be available for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls, according to head coach Nate McMillan.

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) is reportedly not as bad as his last adductor strain, but has no timetable to return, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson.

Andy Webb 6 years agoJeremy Lamb is Doubtful for Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Lamb suffered a hamstring injury during Monday's game against the Magic. Malik Monk should benefit the most if Lamb is sidelined on Wednesday.

Andy Webb 6 years agoJoel Embiid is Questionable for Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Embiid did not play on Sunday, but it sounds like the issue is a day-to-day type of deal. Amir Johnson would likely draw the start if Embiid is sidelined.

Andy Webb 6 years agoJonathon Simmons is Questionable for Monday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Andy Webb 6 years agoDewayne Dedmon Ruled Out on Monday
Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon (knee) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Alex Len will draw another start on Monday and played fairly well during his last start.

Andy Webb 6 years agoElfrid Payton is Questionable for Tuesday
New Orleans Pelicans guard Elfrid Payton (finger) is questionable for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Payton was listed as probable, but is now considered a game-time decision.

Andy Webb 6 years agoKyle Lowry Ruled Out for Tuesday
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Lowry has missed seven of the last eight games, but head coach Nick Nurse hopes that Lowry returns soon.

Andy Webb 6 years agoDevin Booker Will Play on Monday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (back) is available for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. However, head coach Igor Kokoskov said Booker is a game-time decision, so fantasy owners need to check back before tip-off. It would likely be a committee approach to fill the void if Booker is out.
Andy Webb 6 years agoJeff Teague, Derrick Rose Doubtful on Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guards Jeff Teague (ankle) and Derrick Rose (ankle) are listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

New York Knicks guard Emmanuel Mudiay (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Mudiay said he'd be ready to play, but he still remains listed as questionable.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. Rose and Jeff Teague (ankle) are likely both going to be sitting out on Sunday.
