Dale Johnson 4 years agoDanilo Gallinari Is Questionable Against Miami
Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (foot) is questionable to play Friday against the Miami Heat. Gallinari has sat out the past week, but may make a return after dealing with foot soreness.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoClint Capela Questionable Against Miami
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (back) is listed as questionable Friday against the Miami Heat. The league-leader in rebounds, Capela has dealt with a plethora of injuries this season and now has a back contusion.

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (thigh) has been ruled out Friday against the Boston Celtics. Durant is dealing with a thigh contusion and there was some hope Durant would play after receiving a questionable tag.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Carter was questionable after dealing with a sore ankle, but the Magic will exercise caution here with nothing to play for.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoAnthony Davis Officially Questionable Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (calf) is questionable to play Thursday against the Dallas Mavericks. Davis could make his return since going down with a calf strain on February 14th, but would likely be hit with a ton of restrictions for his first couple games back.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoJaylen Brown Downgraded To Out Against Suns
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (shoulder) is out against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. Brown tested his injury in pregame, but is unable to go due to shoulder bursitis.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) popped up on the injury report and is questionable against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoJoel Embiid Good To Go Thursday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest candidate) will play Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoBen Simmons Will Continue To Sit With Illness
Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons (illness) is out Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Simmons will miss his third straight game with a non-COVID related illness, but did travel with the team which is encouraging regarding his return.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) and guard Seth Curry (hip) are expected to play Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Curry rested on Wednesday while Harris has not played since April 14th. Head coach Doc Rivers expects both to suit up and be available in this one, but check back before tip-off just to be […]
Dale Johnson 4 years agoJames Johnson Out Again Thursday
New Orleans Pelicans forward/center James Johnson (adductor) will not play Thursday against the Orlando Magic.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoJames Johnson Will Play Through Wrist Injury
New Orleans Pelicans forward/center James Johnson (wrist) is available to play Wednesday against the New York Knicks. Johnson was questionable, but will play through his injury against the Knicks.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoLonzo Ball Ruled Out Wednesday
New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) will remain out Wednesday against the New York Knicks. Ball was doubtful to play as he continues to deal with a hip injury and does not seem particularly close to returning.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoMo Bamba Ruled Out Against Chicago
Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba (hip) will not play Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. Bamba suffered a hip injury in their last game and was questionable to play here, but does not feel good enough to give it a go.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoDwight Howard To Miss First Game Of Season
Philadelphia 76ers center Dwight Howard (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Howard will miss his first game of the season as he sits out with knee soreness.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoDarius Garland Will Play Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Garland will only miss one game with the injury and will be good for managers to deploy in their season long leagues. Garland's return should push Matthew Dellavedova to the bench and erase his short-term value. If Garland experiences any setbacks, Dellavedova […]
Dale Johnson 4 years agoKhem Birch To Start Wednesday
Toronto Raptors forward/center Khem Birch will start Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Head coach Nick Nurse said they would be playing a lot of big lineups, but he doesn't have much of a choice with five guards out for this one.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) and forward Doug McDermott (ankle) are both questionable Wednesday against the Houston Rockets.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoGorgui Dieng And Trey Lyles Remain Out Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs big men Gorgui Dieng (shoulder) and Trey Lyles (ankle) remain out against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoTrae Young And Danilo Gallinari Questionable Thursday
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (calf) and forward Danilo Gallinari (foot) are both listed as questionable against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoAndre Drummond Good To Go Tuesday
Los Angeles Lakers center Andre Drummond (elbow) will play Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Drummond popped up on the injury report with an elbow injury he likely suffered on Monday against the New York Knicks, but it will not cost him any time.

Dale Johnson 4 years agoTerry Rozier To Sit Against Lakers
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Rozier is a little banged up and was doubtful coming into the contest with Charlotte entering a back-to-back set. Head coach James Borrego said "one of the Martin twins will start".

Dale Johnson 4 years agoTrae Young Downgraded To Out Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (calf) is now out Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. The Hawks will be heavily under-manned again with seven players out against the Raptors.
