Evan Rodrigues Available On Saturday

Colorado Avalanche forward Evan Rodrigues (face) will be in the lineup Saturday versus Florida. His status for the game was initially in doubt after he left Thursday's battle against Tampa Bay early.

Joel Embiid Questionable Again Versus Brooklyn

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is questionable for Saturday's clash with the Brooklyn Nets. Embiid has dealt with left foot soreness for a while but has still played. However, considering he played 38 minutes on Friday night in the win over the Knicks, he may sit this one out. Nevertheless, if Embiid doesn't see […]

Nicolas Claxton Will Play Against Philadelphia

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) will suit up on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers. He didn't play in Thursday's win over the Chicago Bulls because of right hamstring tightness, which allowed Day'Ron Sharpe to get the start and finish two points shy of a double-double. However, with Claxton back in the mix, Sharpe's streaming […]

The 29-year-old […]

Tage Thompson Ready To Go Saturday

Buffalo Sabres forward Tage Thompson (upper body) is good to go for Saturday's game against Calgary.

Mo Bamba Joining The Lakers

The Magic traded center Mo Bamba to the Lakers on Thursday in exchange for Patrick Beverley. Bamba hasn't been a consistent contributor throughout his five seasons of service, averaging 7.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks. However, the 24-year-old should be the clear-cut No. 2 option behind Anthony Davis after Thomas Bryant was sent to […]

Rudy Gobert Uncertain For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. His absence would likely mean Naz Reid would move into the starting five.

Day'Ron Sharpe Available On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (foot) is available for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is good news for the Nets with Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) sitting out this contest.

Nicolas Claxton To Miss Thursday's Game

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It sounds like the Nets aren't going to push Claxton who is dealing with hamstring soreness. Day'Ron Sharpe and Ben Simmons should both see extended playing time with Claxton on the sideline. Neither player has great streaming appeal, […]

New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes (upper body) is set for a spell on the sidelines, with the team listing him as week-to-week.
