Giannis Antetokounmpo Uncertain To Play Against Suns
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) has received a questionable tag for their matchup against the Phoenix Suns on Monday. The superstar big man has appeared on the injury report a lot with this hamstring issue, but recently he was popping up as probable instead of questionable. There could be some more pain involved this […]
Lauri Markkanen Misses Sixth Consecutive Game
Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) isn't ready to make his return to the lineup on Saturday against Minnesota, missing a sixth consecutive game. Utah's leading scorer remains on the shelf with a right quadriceps contusion. Markkanen's absence has boosted Brice Sensabaugh's role on the team, and the 20-year-old rookie has even begun to start […]
Herbert Jones Downgraded To Out Versus Portland
New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back/hip) has been downgraded from questionable to out after taking what looked like a pretty bad fall during their game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Deni Avdija Good To Go Versus Chicago
Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (knee) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Saturday's matchup against the Bulls. The 23-year-old is dealing with a right knee contusion but will remain in the lineup for a ninth consecutive game. Avdija has played a massive part for the Wizards lately and should be able to produce […]
Matisse Thybulle Won't Play On Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's meeting with New Orleans. The defensive specialist comes out of the lineup for just the second time in 28 games. Thybulle has averaged nearly 25 minutes per game for the month, meaning there will be a nice chunk of minutes to be […]
Jabari Walker Returns To Action On Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against the Pelicans. The team has upgraded him from a questionable status. Walker returns after missing five games with a right hip inflammation. The 21-year-old was rolling before getting hurt, and it will be interesting to see if he can carry on […]
Jerami Grant Downgraded To Out Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) won't make his return to action Saturday versus New Orleans. The team has downgraded him from doubtful to out, meaning the 30-year-old will be out for the fifth time in six games.

Tobias Harris Ruled Out For Saturday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) won't take the court against Charlotte on Saturday. The team has downgraded Harris from questionable to out. The veteran forward comes out of the lineup for only the seventh time this season. Harris has had a couple of miserable outings lately, so having some time off might even benefit […]
Dean Wade Back On The Injury Report
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against Houston. He missed the last three games because of a personal matter but was removed from the injury report heading toward this contest, so most had assumed he'd be available. However, Wade is now back on it because of knee soreness. With Max […]
Jabari Walker Upgraded On Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) was upgraded to questionable heading into Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans. The 2022 No. 57 overall pick has been a critical component of Chauncey Billups' rotation this season, averaging 8.5 and 6.6 rebounds in 22 minutes per contest. He's missed the last five games because of a hip […]
T.J. Warren To Ink Another 10-Day Deal
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, forward T.J. Warren has agreed to a second 10-day contract with the Timberwolves. The 30-year-old has appeared in four games for Minnesota this season, averaging 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds. While Warren is nowhere close to the player he once was, he might see an uptick in DFS […]
Tobias Harris Misses Morning Shootaround
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) didn't participate in shootaround on Saturday morning. He remains questionable heading into the meeting with Charlotte because of the ankle he tweaked in Thursday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Philadelphia has 16 games left before the playoffs and currently holds a Play-In spot. However, with Joel Embiid (knee) potentially […]
Doug McDermott Remains Sidelined On Saturday
Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) will miss a ninth consecutive contest on Saturday against Brooklyn. The veteran sniper has returned to practice but isn't quite ready to get back to work yet following a calf strain. However, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle has said that McDermott is getting close to his return, so he […]
Jabari Walker Listed As Doubtful For Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) is on the injury report as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against New Orleans. The 21-year-old has been out for five games, but Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups noted earlier in the week that Walker's return is getting close. However, Saturday's game might come too soon for […]
Kevin Huerter Questionable To Face Knicks On Saturday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (leg) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Knicks. He's in danger of missing a second consecutive game with a right leg contusion. However, Huerter was a full participant in Friday's practice session, which is a good sign regarding his availability. Huerter's return will likely send Keon Ellis back […]
Cam Reddish Will Remain Out On Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) will remain out on Saturday against Golden State. Reddish is nursing a right ankle sprain and won't be in the lineup for a third consecutive game. Spencer Dinwiddie has a chance to log extra minutes off the pine without Reddish. He's getting a big opportunity to impress, but […]
LeBron James Questionable To Play Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's big clash with Golden State. The NBA's all-time leading scorer continues to carry a left ankle problem, but he's missed only a handful of games over the last couple of months. In the last game against Sacramento, James even logged 40 minutes. It's a […]
OG Anunoby Questionable Against Sacramento
New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) is tagged as questionable heading into Saturday's game in Sacramento. He's not injured. But considering the 26-year-old recently returned from a lengthy layoff, head coach Tom Thibodeau could keep him out for this one. That said, Anunoby has played well in his two games since returning, averaging 13.0 […]
Lamar Stevens Set To Miss Third Consecutive Game
Memphis Grizzlies forward Lamar Stevens (groin) will remain out for a third consecutive game on Saturday against Oklahoma City. Following a string of solid performances, Stevens picked up an adductor strain, leaving Memphis without another frontcourt option. The trio of Trey Jemison, GG Jackson II, and Jake LaRavia has put in a lot of work […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Won't Play Against Utah
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (illness) will sit out Friday's game against Utah. The talented scorer played through an illness Wednesday versus Portland but won't be able to do the same in Friday's matchup, with the team downgrading him from questionable to out. Bogdanovic also struggled against the Trail Blazers with 3-for-15 shooting, so it's […]
Jalen Johnson Back On Friday
Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (ankle) will return to action on Friday against Utah. Atlanta's rising star will be back after missing three games with a right ankle sprain. Johnson only recently faced the Jazz and had a great night with 22 points, 13 rebounds, six assists, and one steal. We could see something similar […]
Vince Williams Jr. Doubtful For Saturday's Action
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) will likely remain sidelined for Saturday's meeting with the Thunder, as the team considers him doubtful for the game. The 23-year-old is set to miss a fourth straight game with left patellar tendonitis. Luke Kennard, John Konchar, and Jake LaRavia have taken on larger roles during Williams Jr.'s […]
Dean Wade Available To Return On Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (personal) is expected to return to action in Saturday's matchup against Houston. Following a three-game absence, Wade rejoined practice on Friday and isn't on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game. With Evan Mobley (ankle) missing from the frontcourt, Wade made two consecutive starts before exiting the lineup for personal […]
Max Strus Sitting Out Another Game On Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Max Strus (knee) won't be available for a seventh consecutive contest on Saturday against Houston. He's been kept off the court by a right knee strain. Isaac Okoro should continue to play a larger role with Strus on the shelf, although the return of Donovan Mitchell limits his impact on the offensive […]
Matisse Thybulle Questionable For Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Blazers are seemingly banged up everywhere ahead of this matchup. Thybulle hasn't been a great scoring option for them, but he has been a reliable defensive player. His absence would probably mean more minutes […]
Kawhi Leonard, Paul George Expected To Play On Friday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) and guard Paul George (knee) have been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. There was some uncertainty that the two superstars would sit given it's the second night of a back-to-back set. Despite that, both players are expected to suit […]
Eric Gordon Returns To Suns Lineup Friday
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) will return from a two-game absence on Friday versus Charlotte. The veteran sniper has recovered from a left knee contusion. Gordon's addition boosts the quality of Phoenix's second unit, which remains without Josh Okogie (abdomen). The 2017 NBA Sixth Man of the Year has been in a shooting slump […]
Deni Avdija Uncertain To Play Against Bulls
Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (knee) has been tagged as questionable for Saturday after escaping their game on Thursday without picking up a severe injury. Avdija talked about the relief that his injury wasn't worse, but it's not surprising that he would appear on the injury report until the knee soreness went down a bit. […]
Doug McDermott Getting Close To Returning
Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) participated in practice on Friday and seems to be close to returning to game action. The veteran shooter hasn't played since February 26 and there has never been an official timetable for his return. The Pacers don't seem to be in a hurry to get him back on the […]
Tobias Harris Receives Questionable Tag For Saturday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle late in their game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday and is now considered questionable for Saturday night. The veteran wing planted awkwardly and fell in pain, but he was able to stay in the game and finish it out. The team will likely have […]
