Kyle Lowry Remains Sidelined

Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry (hip) will miss his fifth straight game on Tuesday, and it also seems unlikely he'll be ready to turn around and play in the second game of the Sixers' back-to-back on Wednesday against the Knicks.

Ayo Dosunmu Could Return On Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu (calf) seems to be on the verge of a return since he has been ramping up on-court activity and is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Pelicans.

Trae Young Battling An Illness, Might Sit On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (illness) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Phoenix. He is feeling under the weather and may be out for only the third time in 2024-25.

Malik Monk Carrying A Questionable Tag Ahead Of Tuesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Malik Monk (groin) is considered questionable for Tuesday's tilt against Milwaukee. After sustaining a groin injury, he might be absent for an eighth time this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (illness) was listed as doubtful for Tuesday's rematch against the Pacers, who beat the Cavs on Sunday, snapping Cleveland's 12-game winning streak.

Dejounte Murray Expected To Play On Tuesday Night

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow) is probable for Tuesday's matchup with the Bulls. The 28-year-old missed over a month to begin the season because of a fractured hand.

Tyrese Haliburton Doubtful Tuesday Against The Cavaliers

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) only played 19 minutes in his team's win over the Cavs on Sunday night, and it looks unlikely that he'll be available Tuesday for the rematch in Indianapolis.

Jamal Murray Expected To Play Against Dallas

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is expected to play in Tuesday's matchup with Dallas. As expected, he's on the injury report. However, barring a setback, the 27-year-old should be out there against the Mavericks.

Ja Morant Good To Go Monday

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (illness) has been cleared to play on Monday against Houston. Morant has not been feeling well and was a late addition to the injury report.

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (foot) will miss a fifth straight game on Monday when the Wizards finish their back-to-back with a home game against the Timberwolves.

Immanuel Quickley Will Not Play Against The Warriors

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (hip) was added to the injury report early in the day on Monday and was downgraded to out shortly before tip-off Monday night. The former Knick has been limited to just nine games this season due to multiple injuries, so any new injury is cause for concern. Without Quickley, Scottie […]

Immanuel Quickley Listed As Questionable For Monday

Vivek Jacob of the Raptors official site reports that guard Immanuel Quickley (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors due to left hip soreness.

Ja Morant Questionable For Monday's Matchup With Houston

Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports that Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Houston Rockets due to an illness.

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (back) has been tagged as questionable for their Monday night contest against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Ty Jerome Ruled Out For Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Indiana.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow, shin) will be active against Boston on Sunday.
