Curry has retained minimal […]

Ricky Rubio Unlikely To Make Return Saturday

The Phoenix Suns are facing the likelihood that point guard Ricky Rubio will miss Saturday’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to back spasms.

Damian Lillard Should Return Against Cavs

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (back) is probable to return against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday. He's been battling back issues lately and has missed the last two games. Anfernee Simons, Rodney Hood and Carmelo Anthony have been getting increased minutes without Lillard on the court. Simons is going to take the biggest hit […]

Malcolm Brogdon Doesn't Practice Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) was unable to suit up for Friday's practice. He tweaked his back last weekend and has missed the last couple of games because of it.

Eric Bledsoe Drops 30 Points On The Blazers In Win

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe shot 11 of 21 against Portland on Thursday night to finish with 30 points, six assists and four rebounds.

C.J. McCollum Fills It Up Against The Bucks

Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard C.J. McCollum had the stage all to himself Thursday against Milwaukee and wasn't one to disappoint, dropping 37 points to go with 10 assists, six rebounds and five three-point makes.

Lonzo Ball Will Come Off The Bench Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Lonzo Ball (groin) will play but will come off the bench Thursday night against the Phoenix Suns. Ball has been sidelined for almost two weeks and will have a 20-minute restriction, per head coach Alvin Gentry. Ball's return will likely lower the value of J.J. Redick and Nickeil Alexander-Walker moving […]

Ricky Rubio Remains Out Against Pelicans

Phoenix Suns point guard Ricky Rubio (back) will not play Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans.

[…]

Ricky Rubio Might Sit Against Pelicans

Phoenix Suns guard Ricky Rubio (back) is listed as a game-time decision for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Rubio was able to play on Tuesday despite his back issues. However, he played only 16 minutes, so he'd be a risky DFS option for Thursday. Tyler Johnson and Elie Okobo would see more minutes […]

Kyrie Irving is Ruled Out for Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He wasn't able to practice on Thursday and will continue to be sidelined due to a right shoulder issue. Spencer Dinwiddie has been starting and getting a heavy usage without Irving available.

Justise Winslow is Not Traveling for Weekend Series

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (head) will not travel with the team for their upcoming back-to-back set this weekend.

Derrick White Might Sit on Friday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young tallied 25 points, two rebounds, eight assists, and three steals in Wednesday's 135-127 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

Patrick Beverley Collects Career-High 16 Rebounds

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Patrick Beverley recorded his second double-double of the season on Wednesday, finishing a 107-104 overtime win against Boston with 14 points and a career-high 16 rebounds.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams provided a big spark off the bench Wednesday night against the Celtics, scoring a team-high 27 points on 10-for-21 shooting.

James Harden Scores Just 27 Points In Loss

Houston Rockets guard James Harden managed to record just 27 points, which is kind of crazy to say, in the 105-95 loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday. Harden did make half of his 16 shot attempts with seven of ten makes at the line and added seven boards, seven assists, three steals with four makes […]

Russell Westbrook Inefficient In The Loss To The Nuggets

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook connected on just 8-for-22 shooting from the floor to score 25 points in the loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Spencer Dinwiddie Dishes Eight Assists Against Charlotte

Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie put up 20 points, four rebounds, eight assists, and two steals in his team's 101-91 win over the Charlotte Hornets.

Alec Burks Struggles With His Shot Against Dallas

Golden State Warriors combo guard Alec Burks was one of the few players on either side who struggled to score the basketball against the Mavericks, registering just 11 points on three of 11 shooting.

Luka Doncic Keeps The Good Times Rolling

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic was at it again versus the Golden State Warriors, continuing to rewrite the record books with 35 points on 11 of 17 shooting, 11 assists and 10 rebounds.

Coby White Will Play Through Ankle Injury

Updating a previous report, Chicago Bulls point guard Coby White (ankle) says he will play Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. White tweaked his ankle during his pregame routine, but the injury is not enough to keep him out of the lineup. White will resume his normal role off the bench.
