Karl-Anthony Towns Questionable Thursday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against Luka Doncic and the Mavericks. Towns returned from a one-game absence on Tuesday, but he still isn't 100 percent healthy and might need to take some more time off due to left knee soreness. Kyle Anderson made his first start of the campaign […]

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (toe) won't take the floor Thursday against Boston. He managed to play through a big toe sprain Tuesday versus the Nets, but the injury will keep him sidelined on Thursday. The 22-year-old will miss his third game of the season.

Deandre Ayton Unavailable On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The big man continues to miss time due to right knee tendinitis.

Victor Wembanyama Expected To Play On Thursday

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama is not on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is noteworthy because head coach Gregg Popovich said the prized rookie would not play in both games of the back-to-back set.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo is considered questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Brooklyn.

Joel Embiid Remains Out On Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) will sit out a second consecutive game Wednesday versus Orlando. The Sixers will face one of the toughest defenses in the league without the reigning scoring champion, but Embiid's absence opens up opportunities for others.

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The big man continues to miss time due to a lingering right knee issue.
