Russell Westbrook Likely Out A Week

Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook (quad) is expected to miss at least a week of action. This is a big blow to the Wizards who just lost Thomas Bryant (knee) to a season-ending injury.

John Wall Sits Out Of Practice

Houston Rockets guard John Wall (head) was unable to practice on Monday. He sat out with a migraine and is listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest.
