Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (hip) is expected to play on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Nathan MacKinnon Deemed Game-Time Decision Due To Illness

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon is battling an illness and will be a game-time decision on Monday.

Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid had a walk in the park against Anaheim on Sunday, recording five points in a massive 8-2 win.

Nicolas Claxton Downgraded To Out On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) was originally listed as probable earlier Sunday afternoon, then was downgraded to questionable, then again to out in the matter of 20 minutes.

Nicolas Claxton Listed As Probable On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) was back on the injury report with an ankle sprain but he's expected to play through it as he was listed probable for the game against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday.

Kristaps Porzingis Won't Play Against Atlanta

Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (calf) isn't available for Sunday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The veteran lasted only 22 minutes in Friday's meeting against the Orlando Magic.

Deandre Ayton Expected To Play On Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (back) is expected to play on Sunday in Milwaukee.

Walker Kessler Available Off The Bench

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (elbow) is available off the bench for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
