Dewayne Dedmon Will Make Season Debut Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon (ankle) will make his season debut against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday.

He's worth […]

John Collins Expected to Miss Several Weeks

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (ankle) won't suit up for Wednesday's home opener and will reportedly be sidelined multiple weeks. Collins suffered his ankle injury in early October.

Brandon Knight Remains Without Timetable

Houston Rockets guard Brandon Knight (knee) says his rehab work is going well, but does not have a timetable for his return.

Mario Hezonja Expected to See Increased Role

New York Knicks forward Mario Hezonja is expected to see an increased role in the rotation going forward. Kevin Knox (ankle) is sidelined, so Hezonja should benefit from that.

Aron Baynes Has Been Ruled Out on Monday

Boston Celtics center Aron Baynes (hamstring) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. Hamstring issues have a tendency to linger, so Baynes could be sidelined for a bit. Daniel Theis should see an increased workload with Baynes out on Monday. However, Theis shouldn't get enough minutes to make him valuable in […]

Marcus Morris is Questionable on Monday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. Morris finished with 16 points, six rebounds, two assists and two treys in 26 minutes on Saturday versus the Knicks.

Courtney Lee Will Undergo Tests on Monday

New York Knicks guard Courtney Lee (neck) will undergo tests on Monday in an attempt to determine what is causing his neck pain.

Rodions Kurucs Appears to be Fine

Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs (ankle) appears to be fine after suffering a sprained ankle during Saturday's contest. Kurucs was helped off the court during Saturday's loss to the Pacers.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Expected to Play Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) is expected to make his season debut against the Cavaliers on Wednesday, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Simmons was unable to practice on Monday due to back tightness.

Harrison Barnes, Devin Harris Will Miss Next Two Games

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes (hamstring) and guard Devin Harris (hamstring) will miss at least the next two games, according to head coach Rick Carlisle.

Tyreek Hill Hauls in Seven Receptions

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill had an explosive game against the Patriots in Week 6, so there was no way he was going to match that this week.
