Cam Reddish Ruled Out For Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers forward Cam Reddish (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Reddish is back on the sideline after suffering a right ankle sprain during Tuesday's game.

Seth Curry Questionable Against Suns
Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry (ankle) is listed as questionable for the team's upcoming game against the Phoenix Suns. The 33-year-old sat out the last game, and in 2024, he has only played 20 minutes in a game once. Given the questionable status of several other Maverick guards, Curry might assume a more significant role […]
Dante Exum Could Return Against Suns
Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum (heel) could make his return to action on Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns. The 28-year-old has been sidelined for the past six games with a right plantar sprain, but he participated fully in the team's latest practice, indicating a potential comeback.

The Milwaukee Bucks have parted ways with first-year head coach Adrian Griffin this week, and according to Adrian Wojnarowski, they are set to hire Doc Rivers as his replacement.

Caris LeVert Iffy For Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) might be forced to sit out a third straight game on Wednesday, as the team considers him questionable for a trip to Milwaukee. Sam Merrill has had a pair of outstanding games with LeVert unavailable and figures to feature heavily again if LeVert remains out on Wednesday. It's been […]
Gordon Hayward Continues To Sit
Charlotte Hornets small forward Gordon Hayward (calf) will remain out on Wednesday against Detroit. Hayward resumed light on-court activities a week ago and appears to be nearing his return, but he will remain absent for a 14th consecutive game. With Terry Rozier now in Miami, Hayward should get more opportunities as a scorer when he's […]
Tari Eason Won't Play On Wednesday
Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (leg) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Eason was a limited participant during Tuesday's practice, so it's not shocking to see the Rockets hold him out for another game. Cam Whitmore figures to have an increased role while Eason sits out. Whitmore struggled […]
Taurean Prince Ready To Return On Tuesday
Los Angeles Lakers forward Taurean Prince (knee) isn't on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's clash versus the Clippers, meaning he should be back in the lineup after sitting out one game. Price was absent on Sunday against Portland due to left knee soreness. The veteran should assume his usual role in the starting unit […]
Michael Porter Jr. Still Under The Weather
Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (illness) is probable ahead of Tuesday's game in Indiana. The 25-year-old carried a questionable designation for the same reason before Sunday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. However, he was out there, finishing with 19 points, five rebounds, two blocks, and two steals in 32 minutes. Of course, that doesn't […]
Josh Green Returning On Monday
Dallas Mavericks forward Josh Green (illness) will make his return for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. Green will return to the starting five following a one-game absence due to a minor illness. Tim Hardaway Jr. will shift to the bench with Green cleared to play. Fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned about Hardaway's value taking […]

Robert Covington Remains Sidelined Monday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington (knee) will remain out of the lineup Monday versus San Antonio. Knee trouble will keep him off the court for a 10th consecutive game. Covington has made a minimal impact even when healthy this season, and his absence changes very little for the 76ers. The 33-year-old has averaged 4.4 points […]
Caris LeVert Might Miss Another Game On Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) is questionable for Monday's game against Orlando. The former Net has been plagued by a wrist sprain, most recently keeping him off the floor for Saturday's game versus the Atlanta Hawks. With bench minutes up for grabs in that one, Georges Niang and Sam Merrill got extra work, with […]
Franz Wagner Might Return On Sunday
Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (calf) is questionable to play in Sunday's matchup with the Miami Heat. The 22-year-old is averaging a career-high 20.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 3.9 assists this season. However, he strained his calf in a meeting with the Sacramento Kings on January 3, so the team has been without their second-leading […]
Cam Reddish Listed As Probable For Sunday
Los Angeles Lakers forward Cam Reddish (knee) is listed as probable ahead of Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team recently said that Reddish is expected to miss multiple games while he recovers from a knee issue. Well, Reddish appears to be on track to play after missing only three games. The expectation […]
Caris LeVert Sidelined Versus Atlanta
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) isn't available for Saturday's game against Atlanta. He's battled a lingering wrist issue for a while, although it will finally keep him off the floor. The 29-year-old is averaging 16 points this season, primarily from off the bench, meaning there will be scoring chances up for grabs. Although Donovan […]
Tari Eason Remains Out Saturday
Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (leg) will miss a 10th consecutive game on Saturday against Utah. He was ruled out for one-to-two weeks on Jan. 10 but still isn't game-ready. The team is trying to manage a left lower leg injury with him, and Rockets head coach Ime Udoka said on Friday that he wants […]
Luguentz Dort Listed As Questionable Saturday
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (illness) is in danger of missing a second consecutive game, as the team considers him questionable for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota. Dort missed his second game of the season Thursday versus Utah due to an illness, and he's still trying to get over the bug. Cason Wallace jumped into […]
Patrick Williams Questionable For Saturday
Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) is regarded as questionable for Saturday's home game against Memphis. He returned from a two-game absence against Toronto on Thursday, but it looks like Williams could land back on the shelf for the weekend due to a right ankle sprain. He had a solid 12-point outing in 23 minutes […]
Bennedict Mathurin Good To Go On Friday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (ankle) will play on Friday versus Portland. The 21-year-old carried a questionable tag on Friday, just like he did ahead of Thursday's win over the Sacramento Kings. But he's good to go, although the return of Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) and the debut of Pascal Siakam could significantly impact his production […]
Caris LeVert Doubtful Versus Atlanta
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (wrist) is doubtful ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The injury isn't anything new. However, he'll now miss his first game since December 23. The Cavs will also continue to operate without Darius Garland (jaw) and Evan Mobley (knee), so scoring chances will be up for grabs. Of […]
Cade Cunningham Expected To Return In A Week
Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (knee) is expected to return to action in five to seven days after being cleared for basketball activities, the team announced on Friday. The former number-one overall pick has missed each of the last five games with a knee strain and will be out for the next two games but […]
Duncan Robinson Questionable Friday With Ankle Sprain
Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (ankle) was a late addition to the injury report on Friday, and he is listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain. The 29-year-old has been consistently in the Heat rotation all season, getting minutes ranging from 20-30 minutes regularly. Robinson has started 17 games this season and remains a […]
Brandon Miller Questionable On Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs. The rookie second-overall pick is in danger of missing his third-straight game with a back injury. He's missed five games since November 30th, and his availability for Friday's game won't come until closer to game time. With Victor Wembanyama […]
Jaime Jaquez Jr. Not Expected To Play Friday
Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) is listed as doubtful on the NBA Injury Report, and he isn't expected to make his return on Friday against the Hawks. The 22-year-old rookie has missed each of the last two games with this injury and will likely miss a third. When he was healthy, the rookie […]
Aaron Gordon Expected To Go Friday
Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (shoulder) gets a probable tag heading into Friday's game against the Celtics. After fully recovering from a heel injury, the 28-year-old is back on the injury report for a shoulder injury this time, but he should be all good to go for their game tonight. Gordon has played a major […]
Mikal Bridges Probable To Play Friday
Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges (shin) is listed as probable to play on the NBA Injury Report and should be available to play Friday's game at the Lakers. The 27-year-old injured his shin in the team's loss at Portland Wednesday and had to exit the game. After returning to the game and earning a probable […]
