Anthony Davis Expected To Face Milwaukee
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is probable for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee. The Achilles issue isn't anything new, and Davis will likely continue to deal with it for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign, including the playoffs, assuming the Lakers advance.

Anthony Davis Active Against Pacers
Los Angeles Lakers center/forward Anthony Davis (Achilles) has been upgraded to active, as expected, against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night.

Deandre Ayton Questionable Against Houston
Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (elbow) is questionable for Monday's matchup with Houston. He's missed Portland's previous two games with an elbow issue.

Nikola Jokic In Danger Of Missing Another Game
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (back, hip) is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

However, considering Memphis is one of the worst teams in the league, […]
Xavier Tillman Sr. Uncertain For Monday
Boston Celtics center Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) has been listed as questionable due to knee swelling for Monday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks.
