Jack Roslovic Out On Saturday

Columbus Blue Jackets center Jack Roslovic will miss Saturday's matchup against Detroit with an illness. He is set to be replaced in the lineup by Brendan Gaunce.

Jack Quinn Expected Back Saturday

Buffalo Sabres winger Jack Quinn (upper body) returned to practice Friday and is expected to play Saturday versus Toronto.

The […]

Tyrese Haliburton Hurts Right Ankle In Friday's Win

Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton hurt his right ankle in Friday's 99-91 win on Houston. This was a very unfortunate injury, as the game was basically already done when Haliburton decided to attack the rim with 40 seconds left in the game, and Usman Garuba, who attempted to block Haliburton's shot, landed on his […]

Cam Reddish Suffers A Groin Injury

New York Knicks forward Cam Reddish exited Friday's 111-101 loss to Golden State with a groin injury.

Saddiq Bey Exits With Injury Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Saddiq Bey rolled his right ankle and couldn't complete Friday's contest against the Lakers.

Bey is one of Detroit's […]

JaMychal Green Questionable Friday

Golden State Warriors forward/center JaMychal Green (wrist) is a late addition to the injury report ahead of Friday's matchup against the Knicks. He is dealing with right wrist soreness and is considered questionable for the game. Green has been a solid backup player for the Warriors, averaging 4.8 points a night with 4.5 rebounds in […]

Mitchell Robinson Misses Another Game

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) still won't be able to return Friday versus Golden State. He's been out for seven games and was regarded as doubtful for Friday, so ultimately his absence doesn't come as a surprise. Robinson has had a disappointing start to the season after getting re-signed in the summer, and […]

Jonathan Kuminga Ready To Play

Golden State Warriors forward/center Jonathan Kuminga (illness) is officially available for Friday's contest against New York. He missed Wednesday night's action versus Phoenix with a non-COVID illness but is now good to go.

Chris Paul Misses A Fifth Consecutive Game

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul (heel) will remain out for Friday's matchup against Utah. The veteran floor general is carrying a sore right heel and is sidelined for a fifth consecutive game.

Reggie Bullock Available Friday Night

Dallas Mavericks forward Reggie Bullock (neck) has been able to shake off a questionable tag and is ready to play Friday versus Denver. The 31-year-old sniper has been dealing with a neck strain for a bit, but it doesn't appear to be serious enough for him to miss any game time. Bullock is having a […]

Aaron Gordon Sits Out Friday's Action

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (illness) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against Dallas. His status for the game was already iffy when Gordon missed the morning shootout and he hasn't been able to recover well enough from a non-COVID illness to be game-ready. The Nuggets are very shorthanded right now and this should […]

Zion Williamson Still Out Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) will miss another game Friday versus Boston. He has a right foot contusion, which is a bit of a worry because the same foot has previously caused him serious trouble. Williamson plays a massive role for the Pelicans, but the team seems to be just fine without him, […]

Thatcher Demko Tries To End His Struggles Versus Kings

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will make his 12th start of the campaign Friday versus the Kings, hoping to record only his second victory of the season.

Aleksander Barkov Trending Towards Returning Saturday

Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov (illness) looks set to return to the lineup Saturday versus Calgary.

Nick Perbix Out Saturday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Nick Perbix (undisclosed) isn't expected to be in the lineup Saturday versus Nashville. The 24-year-old rookie suffered an undisclosed injury in Thursday's 4-1 win over Calgary and missed Friday's practice. He is considered day-to-day. Perbix is only a couple of games removed from an impressive four-game scoring streak, so he's gotten […]

Travis Konecny Dealing With A Hand Injury

Philadelphia Flyers right wing Travis Konecny missed the third period of Thursday's 4-1 loss to Boston with a hand injury. The 25-year-old was able to log 11:13 of ice time before being forced to call it a night because of an injury to his right hand. It's currently unknown if Konecny is forced to miss […]

Colton Parayko A Game-Time Decision Thursday
