Devin Booker To Give It A Go Wednesday

Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Devin Booker is going to take the floor Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers despite being listed as doubtful with a toe injury relatively close to tip.

Walker went 6-for-19 from the field and 6-for-10 from the line, finishing with 19 points, five rebounds, four steals, three assists and a block in 34 minutes.

Jeremy Lin Out While Kevin Huerter In Wednesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (back) is available to play, but Jeremy Lin (ankle) will not suit up Wednesday night against the Charlotte Hornets. Lin suffered an ankle injury Tuesday night against the Miami Heat and was questionable to play, but on the second half of a back-to-back it makes sense to sit. Huerter will […]

Chris Paul And Gerald Green Remain Out Wednesday

Houston Rockets guards Chris Paul (hamstring) and Gerald Green (ankle) will remain on the sidelines Wednesday night against the Dallas Mavericks.

Lonzo Ball is Day-to-Day

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball (ankle) is considered day-to-day after tweaking his ankle during Tuesday's game versus the Nuggets.

George Hill Won't Play on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard George Hill (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. There was hope that Hill could play on Wednesday after going through full contact practice on Monday. Apparently Hill is just not ready for game action yet.
