Andre Drummond Doubtful For Thursday's Action
Chicago Bulls center Andre Drummond (ankle) is considered doubtful to play against the Pistons on Thursday. He hurt his left ankle on Tuesday in a matchup against the Knicks and might be done for the rest of the regular season, with only three games remaining on the Bulls' calendar. Adama Sanogo grabbed a few extra […]
Draymond Green Questionable Thursday
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Portland. The four-time All-Star made an early exit on Sunday against Utah due to an apparent back problem, and he's now on the injury report with a knee contusion. Jonathan Kuminga and Trayce Jackson-Davis have the most to gain […]
Dario Saric Questionable Versus Portland
Golden State Warriors power forward/center Dario Saric (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. Saric has been a solid bench player for Golden State, but he has missed the last 11 games while dealing with right-knee soreness. The Warriors would benefit from Saric's return since Draymond Green is also […]
Nikola Jokic Cleared To Suit Up Wednesday
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hip) is available for Wednesday's pivotal clash with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 29-year-old had a 28-point, 13-rebound double-double in Tuesday's win over the Utah Jazz. However, he once again made an appearance on the injury report, although that's been a theme over the last few weeks. But now that Jokic […]
Al Horford Questionable Against The Knicks
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Knicks. This injury has bothered him for at least a few weeks, and with the C's coasting to the postseason, he could get another night off to rest. With Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) also on the injury report, […]
John Collins Ruled Out For Thursday
Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) is officially ruled out for Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. Collins will miss his sixth consecutive game after back spasms started limiting his availability. Utah falling out of playoff contention led them to play it safe with Collins and other banged-up players sitting out. Brice Sensabaugh has benefited […]
Kristaps Porzingis Back On The Injury Report
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Knicks. He's been getting routine days off to rest, and with Boston sitting comfortably as the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference, the C's may start resting their starters. But with Porzingis, Al Horford (toe), and Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) on […]
Walker Kessler Ruled Out For Thursday
Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (nose) will miss his fourth consecutive game on Thursday versus the Houston Rockets. Kessler is dealing with a nose fracture, and Utah is playing it safe with injuries since they have no chance of making the playoffs. The Jazz will have a limited roster against Houston with Kessler and multiple […]
Nicolas Claxton Back In Action Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) will return to the court on Wednesday versus Toronto. He missed Sunday's blowout loss to Sacramento with an ankle sprain. Noah Clowney looks set to relinquish his spot in the starting unit, although he could still play a fairly significant role off the bench. It's a good matchup for […]
Mets-Braves Postponed On Wednesday
The contest between the New York Mets and Atlanta Braves on Wednesday has been postponed in Atlanta due to a forecast of inclement weather. The game will be made up on Sept. 26 at 7:20 pm ET, and Thursday's originally scheduled 12:20 pm ET game will be played as planned. It means that Wednesday's scheduled […]
Nick Foligno Out On Wednesday
Chicago Blackhawks forward Nick Foligno will miss Wednesday's contest against the St. Louis Blues due to personal reasons. He will, however, rejoin the lineup for Friday's contest against the Nashville Predators. The 36-year-old has had a nice impact in his first season in Chicago, tallying 17 goals and 37 points across 70 games, his best […]
Jeferson Quero To Have Season-Ending Surgery
Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (shoulder), who is ranked by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 3 prospect, will have season-ending shoulder surgery for a torn labrum in his right shoulder.

Logan O'Hoppe, Anthony Rendon Resting Against Rays
Los Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe, third baseman Anthony Rendon and first baseman Nolan Schanuel are all on the bench on Wednesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Zack Littell. Matt Thaiss is catching and batting eighth, Miguel Sano is at third base and hitting fifth, and Brandon Drury is at first base and […]
Keibert Ruiz, Joey Meneses Sitting On Wednesday
Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz and first baseman/designated hitter Joey Meneses are not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the San Francisco Giants. It's the second straight day that Ruiz has been on the bench, and the Nats also called up catcher Drew Millas, so don't be surprised if an injury pops […]

Connor McDavid Unlikely For Wednesday
Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid (lower body) is unlikely to suit up on Wednesday when his team plays host to the Vegas Golden Knights.

Elias Lindholm Could Suit Up Wednesday
Vancouver Canucks center Elias Lindholm (undisclosed) could return to the lineup on Wednesday when the team hosts the Vegas Golden Knights. The veteran has missed the past seven games due to an undisclosed ailment but practiced with the team on Tuesday. "Possible for tomorrow but he's getting close," Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet said on […]
Danny Jansen Starting Rehab Assignment Wednesday
Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen (wrist) is serving as the designated hitter for Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, and if all goes well with that, he'll catch on Friday for the Bisons.

Gabriel Moreno, Joc Pederson Sitting Out Wednesday
Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno and outfielder/designated hitter Joc Pederson are both out of the team's starting lineup on Wednesday as they face the Colorado Rockies.

J.T. Realmuto Active After Injury Scare
Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (neck, throat) is catching and batting cleanup for the Phillies on Wednesday versus the St. Louis Cardinals and right-hander Lance Lynn.

Will Smith Sitting For Day Game
Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is getting the day off for the matinee game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Twins. Austin Barnes will catch right-hander Bobby Miller and will hit ninth against Twins right-hander Chris Paddack. Smith will head to the bench after starting each of the team's last three games.
