Tre Jones Questionable On Saturday
San Antonio Spurs guard Tre Jones (foot) is questionable ahead of Saturday's game in Utah. Jones has played just once in the last eight games, so there's a good chance his lingering foot soreness will keep him off the floor again versus the Jazz.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Out Versus Phoenix
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle, hip) won't play on Friday night versus the Suns.

Nevertheless, without SGA in the lineup, Josh Giddey is the favorite to […]
Goran Dragic Won't Play Against The Nets
Chicago Bulls guard Goran Dragic (knee) won't play on Friday night against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran has a sore left knee, so he'll now miss his third straight contest.

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet remains away from the team for personal reasons, which causes his status for their weekend back-to-back to be questionable.

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (knee) missed Wednesday's practice and has officially missed Thursday's practice as well, but is listed as questionable on the injury report for Friday's game against the New York Knicks.
