Anthony Davis Active Versus Trail Blazers
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) will play against Portland on Sunday. As usual, the team has upgradEd Davis from probable to available.

Kyle Filipowski Ready To Return On Sunday
Utah Jazz forward/center Kyle Filipowski (lower leg) will return to action on Sunday against Sacramento. He's missed seven games with a lower leg injury.

Victor Wembanyama Returns To Spurs Lineup
San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) will return from a two-game absence on Sunday against New Orleans. A back problem has kept Wembanyama on the sidelines for a couple of games, but he's good to go again on Sunday in a juicy matchup. The Pelicans have a weak frontcourt, resulting in the team allowing […]
Joel Embiid Looks Good In Return On Sunday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) was available for Sunday's meeting with the Bulls. His last appearance was back on November 20 in the loss to the Grizzlies. However, after weeks of uncertainty, the 30-year-old was back on the floor to post one of his best showings of the 2024-25 campaign, finishing the win by […]
Nick Richards Uncertain For Sunday
Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (ankle) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Richards sat out on Saturday due to a right ankle sprain, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss both games of the back-to-back set. The absence of Richards should mean that Taj Gibson gets […]

Alexandre Sarr Out On Saturday
Washington Wizards forward/center Alexandre Sarr (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against Denver. He was already iffy for the game after the team gave him a questionable designation on the injury report. Sarr's injury gives Jonas Valanciunas another opportunity to start, and we might have another Marvin Bagley III sighting on the Wizards' […]
Will Smith Out On Saturday
San Jose Sharks center Will Smith (upper body) will not be in the lineup on Saturday against Florida. He's considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury Smith sustained in Thursday's matchup against Tampa Bay.

Victor Wembanyama Remains Out On Friday
San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (back) will remain sidelined on Friday against Sacramento. A back problem will keep the French phenom out for a second consecutive contest after he was labeled as a game-time decision earlier in the evening. Jeremy Sochan moved to the first unit as Wembanyama's replacement on Thursday against Chicago, with […]
Anthony Davis Cleared To Play On Friday
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) will take the court on Friday against Atlanta. He has been upgraded from probable to available.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (ankle) will suit up against Orlando on Friday. The 31-year-old rebounding machine will return from a two-game absence.
