Sacramento Kings forward Sasha Vezenkov (ankle) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Saturday's tilt against Orlando.

Vezenkov has only played a small […]

Gary Harris Unavailable On Saturday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Gary Harris (foot) won't play against Sacramento on Saturday. The veteran made an early exit on Thursday versus New Orleans and has been downgraded from a questionable status ahead of Saturday's action. Caleb Houstan will cover for him in the starting unit. The 21-year-old has received multiple opportunities as a starter in […]

Matisse Thybulle Listed As Questionable Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Nuggets.

Deandre Ayton With Doubtful Tag Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (elbow) could miss a second consecutive game on Saturday against Denver after the team listed him as doubtful on the injury report.

Jerami Grant Considered Doubtful Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's meeting with Denver. He missed a sixth straight game on Friday versus the Clippers, and it looks unlikely Grant will be ready to return to the lineup against the defending champions. Toumani Camara and Kris Murray should continue to benefit from […]

Onyeka Okongwu Won't Play Against Charlotte

Atlanta Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu (toe) will sit out Saturday's game against Charlotte. The team listed Okongwu as doubtful on the initial injury report, so he was always likely to miss the game. With Okongwu sidelined, Bruno Fernando is set to fill the minutes behind starting center Clint Capela. It's a wonderful matchup for Atlanta's […]

Anfernee Simons Misses Saturday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (knee) won't be in the lineup on Saturday against Denver. He was on the injury report with a left knee injury ahead of Friday's clash with the Clippers and ended up exiting the game early because of a knee ailment. Simons' absence will likely lift Dalano Banton back into […]

Jamal Murray Ruled Out For Saturday

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (ankle) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Saturday's contest against Portland. A left ankle injury brings an end to Murray's run of 13 consecutive appearances. Reggie Jackson should take over as the starting point guard.

Jrue Holiday Out On Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against Chicago on Saturday. The veteran sits out a fourth consecutive game. With Holiday missing, Payton Pritchard has strung together a nice run of good performances and should contribute well again on Saturday in a good matchup. The Bulls struggle to guard the three-point line, giving up […]

Kristaps Porzingis Won't Suit Up Against Chicago

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) won't play on Saturday night in Chicago. The veteran logged 26 minutes in Friday's massive win over the Pistons, finishing with 19 points. Yet, the C's have a firm grasp on the top spot in the Eastern Conference, so the team will start resting their stars to prepare for […]

Jayson Tatum Might Play On Saturday

Jaylen Brown Won't Play On Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) won't play on Saturday against Chicago. Most had expected this would happen, considering he has been battling a right ankle issue, but was in the lineup for Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons.

Immanuel Quickley Won't Play On Saturday

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't play on Saturday in Washington. He's dealing with a family matter, so he'll miss a third consecutive contest. Scottie Barnes (hand) and Kelly Olynyk (finger) have been sidelined. But with RJ Barrett (personal) also ruled out, Gary Trent Jr. (back), Kelly Olynyk, and Gradey Dick are the favorites […]

RJ Barrett Out Again On Saturday

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (personal) remains out on Saturday against Washington. Unfortunately, the passing of his brother has kept him off the floor for Toronto's previous five games. With the Raptors unlikely to make a Play-In spot, there's a chance the former Knick won't be back in the next 12 games, especially once the […]

Gary Trent Jr. Likely To Return On Saturday Night

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (back) is expected to suit up against the Wizards. He was a late addition to Friday's injury report and ultimately was ruled out heading into the Raptors' loss to Oklahoma City.

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) will once again come out of the lineup Saturday against Houston for injury maintenance purposes.

Onyeka Okongwu Unlikely To Face Charlotte

Atlanta Hawks forward/center Onyeka Okongwu (toe) is unlikely to suit up against the Hornets. He recently sat out a month because of a big toe injury. However, Okongwu has appeared in Atlanta's previous two games and logged nearly 20 minutes per contest. Yet, the 23-year-old is expected to get the night off to take a […]

Jamal Murray Uncertain For Saturday's Game

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is questionable heading into Saturday's game in Portland. He tweaked his ankle during Thursday's 113-100 win over the New York Knicks.
