Maurice Harkless Ruled Out For Sunday
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Maurice Harkless has been ruled out of Sunday's contest against the Boston Celtics. Harkless has now missed the previous eight games.

Wilson Chandler Out Against Grizzlies
Philadelphia 76ers forward Wilson Chandler (rest, hamstring) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Chandler is still recovering from a hamstring injury and isn't quite ready to play in back-to-back sets, but he did have his minutes increased to 15 for the last two games.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired forward Robert Covington from the Philadelphia 76ers.

Houston Rockets forward Carmelo Anthony (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs.

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (hip) continues to make solid progress each and every day. He's been out since late October and had surgery to repair his core and hip muscle issues.

Ersan Ilyasova is Questionable on Saturday
Milwaukee Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Thon Maker and Tony Snell would […]

Washington Wizards forward Jeff Green provided a scoring punch off the bench Friday night against the Orlando Magic. Green scored 14 points on 4-for-5 shooting in 24 minutes.
