Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell was a sole contributor on offense Monday night for Utah as they fell 109-94 to Indiana.

Eric Bledsoe Struggles Early Against Washington
Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe continues to transition into the Bucks offense, and against the Wizards he struggled to generate much offense early in the game.

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) will play about 20 minutes in Monday's contest against the Miami Heat. LaVine made his season debut Saturday, scoring 14 points with two assists in 19 minutes.

Kyle Lowry Will Start on Monday
Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry (tailbone) will start against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday. He's back after a three-game absence and shouldn't be under a minutes limit.

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker could not find the touch in a loss to Oklahoma City on Saturday. Walker shot 5-for-17 from the field and 2-for-7 from three. The Hornets as a team shot 40 percent, so it wasn't all Walker's fault, but he didn't help. The former Husky finished with 19 points thanks to […]
Fred VanVleet has Another Solid Outing After Career Night on Thursday
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet came off the bench on Saturday to score 13 points against the Warriors in a close one.

Allen Crabbe Back to his Usual Tricks
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe had a typical game against the Wizards on Saturday, shooting a poor percentage (5-for-15) to finish with 13 points with three triples.

Kyle Lowry is Out on Saturday
Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry (tailbone) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors.

DeMar DeRozan will […]
Yogi Ferrell Posts Double-Double Versus Lakers
Dallas Mavericks point guard Yogi Ferrell managed to post a double-double in rebounds and points against the Los Angeles Lakers, the league's second best rebounding team.
