However, he came through 31 minutes of action on […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable For Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against Chicago.

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (thumb) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Oklahoma City. The talented big man is nursing a sore left thumb.

It's been 23 months since the last time Simmons played on consecutive nights. […]

Kristaps Porzingis Out Versus Indiana

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) won't suit up on Friday versus the Pacers. The veteran tweaked his ankle in the Christmas Day loss to the 76ers.

Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews (upper body) will not rejoin the lineup this week as the team gets ready to face Detroit on Friday and Washington on Saturday.
