Atlanta Hawks point guard Isaiah Taylor, playing in place of starter Dennis Schroder (ankle), scored 26 points on 10-for-17 shooting in Sunday's loss to the Rockets.

Eric Bledsoe Gets Going Again On Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe got going again on Sunday against the Spurs, recording his first 20-plus point outing in the last five games.

Shabazz Napier is Questionable Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Shabazz Napier (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He did not play on Friday due to a toe issue.

Dennis Schroder is Questionable on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. He left Friday's game versus the Warriors due to a left ankle injury.

Chris Paul Remains Sidelined on Sunday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He's missed the last two games due to a hamstring strain, but it does not appear to be serious.
