Stephen Curry Sidelined On Friday For Injury Management

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) will miss Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers while the team manages his knee injury.

Joel Embiid Ruled Out Friday Against Pelicans

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) will miss another game due to the foot sprain he suffered against the Brooklyn Nets.

Dejounte Murray Uncertain To Suit Up On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow/shin) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
