LaMelo Ball Won't Return On Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. The young guard left in the third quarter due to a right ankle injury.

Jamal Murray, Bones Hyland Available On Wednesday
Denver Nuggets guards Jamal Murray (foot) and Bones Hyland (ankle) are available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Murray will take […]
Austin Rivers Downgraded To Out
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Austin Rivers (knee) has been downgraded to out for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran guard was listed as questionable coming into this game due to a left knee contusion. His absence should mean more playing time for Jaylen Nowell.

Jamal Murray And Bones Hyland Probable Wednesday
Denver Nuggets guards Jamal Murray (ankle/foot) and Bones Hyland (ankle) are listed as probable to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves Wednesday.

Kevin Porter Jr. Out Again Wednesday
Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (foot) will not play Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Porter is still experiencing pain in his left foot and will miss his fourth straight game.

Luka Doncic Good To Go Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Doncic was listed as probable after missing a game with ankle soreness, but will make his return to the lineup and figures to see his usual workload.

Kevin Porter Jr. In Danger Of Missing Another Game
Houston Rockets point guard Kevin Porter Jr. (foot) is once again regarded as questionable ahead of Wednesday's contest against Charlotte. He has already missed three games with a left foot contusion. Porter Jr.'s absence has pushed Kenyon Martin Jr. to the starting five and Alperen Sengun has started to play a much bigger role on […]
Kyle Lowry Back For Miami Wednesday
Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry (knee) will return from a four-game absence Wednesday versus New Orleans. The veteran floor general has been troubled by a left knee issue but is ready to return against the Pelicans. Lowry's best days are clearly behind him, but he has still put in solid work this season with […]
Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) won't play Wednesday against Memphis.

Jamal Murray Starting Tuesday
Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (ankle/foot) will play and start Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Murray was originally slated to play before being downgraded to questionable, but ultimately will play against Portland as he deals with ankle and foot inflammation. Murray should slide in to his normal starting role, but if he were […]
Bones Hyland Available On Tuesday
Denver Nuggets guard Bones Hyland (ankle) is available to play Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Hyland was questionable to play with ankle soreness after leaving Sunday's game with the injury, but he will not miss any additional time.

Seth Curry Starting Tuesday, Kyrie Irving Hopeful For Thursday
Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry will start in place of the injured Kyrie Irving (calf) on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs.

Kyle Lowry Upgraded To Questionable Wednesday
Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry (knee) has been upgraded to questionable to play Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Tuesday
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) will not play Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs.

Jamal Murray Downgraded To Questionable
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) has now been downgraded to questionable to play Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Murray was originally listed as probable as he's played through an ankle sprain in each of the last two games, but the injury report states there is now some inflammation Murray is dealing with. The […]
Kyrie Irving Questionable Against Spurs
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) is questionable to play Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Irving is listed with calf soreness, something that wasn't reported until later on Tuesday.

Garland's points […]
Bones Hyland Questionable Against Portland
Denver Nuggets guard Bones Hyland (ankle) is questionable to play Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Hyland left Sunday's game with an ankle sprain and may be in danger of missing Tuesday's game. If Hyland is unable to go, Bruce Brown would likely take most of the extra minutes. Readers should check back before gametime […]
Jamal Murray Probable To Play Tuesday
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is probable to play Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is the third straight game with Murray gaining the probable tag and he's been able to suit up in each of the last two. There should be no doubt in Murray's game status, however if he were to […]

The expectation is that Morant is going […]
Chris Paul Ruled Out For Monday
Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard will miss at least one more game due to hip soreness.

Trae Young, Bogdan Bogdanovic Available On Monday
Atlanta Hawks guards Trae Young (shoulder) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (quad) are both available for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. Young was originally probable, but has now been upgraded to available for this game.
