Jordan Clarkson Misses Another Game

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (thigh) will be absent for a second straight game on Saturday against the Trail Blazers. The 31-year-old is dealing with a right thigh contusion.

Tyrese Haliburton Questionable Saturday

Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton (knee) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Heat.

Haliburton […]

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) has been ruled out indefinitely. The 30-year-old suffered a torn right calf in Tuesday's game against Sacramento.

Jamal Murray Returning On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is great news as Murray is set to return after missing each of the last 11 games due to a strained hamstring. He'll certainly be under a minutes limit during his first game back in the rotation. That […]

Aaron Holiday To Start On Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Aaron Holiday will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Rockets have made the move to start Holiday with Fred VanVleet (thumb) sidelined for this game.

CJ McCollum Remains Out On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (lung) will miss a 12th consecutive game Monday versus the Jazz as he continues to recover from a small pneumothorax in his right lung.

Jaden Springer Continues To Battle An Illness

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jaden Springer (illness) could be unavailable for a second consecutive game Monday versus the Lakers, with the team listing him as questionable for the matchup.
