Malcolm Brogdon To Start On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon will move into the starting five ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards.

The move to the starting five […]

Seth Curry Questionable For Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. The veteran guard was tagged as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game, but was eventually cleared to play. However, Curry didn't suit up for Wednesday's game, but should play plenty if he's active on Friday. The Mavs are extremely […]

Dante Exum Ruled Out For Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum (leg) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is a tough blow considering the Mavs are already without Kyrie Irving, Josh Green, and Luka Doncic for Friday's game. That means, Seth Curry (back) and Jaden Hardy should see heavy minutes in the rotation. If both […]

Bones Hyland Questionable Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Bones Hyland (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Dallas. He's had trouble with his right knee and could be unavailable for a third straight game. However, Hyland has played in only one of the last eight games, logging nine minutes in a cameo against Sacramento, so his absence doesn't affect […]

Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul Active On Tuesday

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (illness) and guard Chris Paul (illness) will both suit up for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. It appears both players are dealing with minor illnesses, but that won't stop them from suiting up for this game. The expectation is that both players should be fully available for this […]

Shaedon Sharpe Available On Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe (groin) is available for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The young guard was questionable coming into this game due to a groin issue.

James Harden Catches Fire Against Indiana

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden had a vintage performance against the Indiana Pacers on Monday, hitting 8-for-11 from deep for a 35-point effort in a 151-127 win. He finished 12-for-16 overall from the field and ended up just one assist short of a third consecutive double-double despite logging only 28 minutes in a blowout […]

Shaedon Sharpe Questionable For Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe (groin) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Sharpe popped up on the injury report with right groin soreness, so he could very well sit this one out. His absence would likely mean that Malcolm Brogdon would slide into the starting five. Also, Scoot Henderson […]

Chris Paul Questionable For Tuesday

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The veteran guard lands on the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. His presence is more important now with Draymond Green being suspended. Paul hasn't started any of the games Green has been absent, but […]

De'Aaron Fox Will Play On Monday

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (shoulder) will suit up for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Bones Hyland Continues To Be Bothered By Knee Soreness

Los Angeles Clippers guard Bones Hyland (knee) is questionable for Monday's contest against Indiana. He's on the injury report with right knee soreness and could remain on the sidelines after already missing time with the ailment. With that said, Hyland hasn't been part of the Clippers' plans anymore since the James Harden trade. He's earned […]

Alex Caruso Collects Another Questionable Tag Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against Philadelphia.

He logged 41 minutes last timeout […]

Jamal Murray Listed As Probable Against Mavericks
