Anthony Edwards Questionable For Monday's Action
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (hip) is regarded as questionable for Monday's clash with the Pelicans.

The Timberwolves have continued to win despite Edwards' […]
Jake LaRavia Questionable On Monday
Memphis Grizzlies forward Jake LaRavia (eye) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Mavericks. He hasn't played since Nov. 1 due to an eye issue, but LaRavia appears close to returning to action after previously having carried a doubtful tag. The 22-year-old didn't feature a lot for the Grizzlies when he was healthy […]
Grant Williams Misses Third Straight Game On Monday
Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams (knee) will miss a third consecutive game Monday against Memphis. He's battling a bone bruise on his right knee and still needs some time to heal.

Pat Connaughton Remains On The Shelf Monday
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Pat Connaughton (ankle) will remain on the sidelines Monday versus Chicago. This is going to be the fifth straight game he misses due to a right ankle sprain.

Patrick Williams Probable Monday
Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) is considered probable for Monday's visit to Milwaukee. He's carrying a sore left ankle but is expected to play as the Bulls look to continue their surge with a fifth consecutive win.

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) has been tagged as questionable against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday.

De'Andre Hunter Receives Questionable Tag Versus Nuggets
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (quad) received a questionable tag for the team's Monday night game against the reigning champs. He's experiencing some soreness in his right quad tendon, so it seems as though the training staff will see how he responds to shootaround and warmups to decide if he'll play or not. Hunter has […]
Aaron Nesmith Listed As Questionable Versus Pistons
Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (hip) has been tagged as questionable for the team's game against the Detroit Pistons. He's dealing with a right hip bruise that he must have picked up during the in-season tournament championship game on Saturday.

Jonathan Isaac Iffy To Play Against Cavaliers
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) received a questionable tag against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday. The 26-year-old has missed the last three games due to a right ankle sprain that he suffered against the Washington Wizards on December 1. He seems to be trending in the right direction so he may be back sooner […]

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) has officially been ruled out of the team's Monday night game against the Orlando Magic. This will be his fourth consecutive missed game due to left knee injury management. There still hasn't been any word about when he'll return from this "injury management."

He's been limited to only three games after missing time to begin the […]
LeBron James Listed As Probable For Saturday's Final
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) is considered probable for Saturday's NBA Cup final matchup against the Pacers. It's a slight upgrade on his status, as James has played in 13 consecutive games while being questionable with a left calf contusion. The injury hasn't limited him in any way, and James has looked outstanding […]
Nassir Little Lands In Concussion Protocol
Phoenix Suns forward Nassir Little logged just four minutes in Friday's meeting with Sacramento and will need to clear concussion protocol before being available to return to the lineup. He had to exit the contest after taking a heavy fall in the first quarter. Little's absence likely won't hurt the Suns much, but he put […]
Anthony Edwards Lasts Just Four Minutes On Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards was limited to only four minutes of action Friday versus Memphis after tweaking his previous hip injury. He recently missed two games with a right hip pointer problem. It was his second game back from the injury. Troy Brown Jr. logged a pair of starts in Edwards' absence and also […]
Lauri Markkanen Ruled Out On Friday Versus Clippers
Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hamstring) has been ruled out for the team's game on Friday against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Jerami Grant Remains In Concussion Protocol On Friday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) still hasn't cleared the league's concussion protocol, so he will miss his second consecutive game on Friday. In the team's last matchup, Anfernee Simons returned to the starting lineup and Deandre Ayton (knee) missed the game as well, so Duop Reath and Toumani Camara received the two vacant […]
Josh Green Ruled Out On Friday
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Josh Green (elbow) has been ruled out on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers while he deals with a right elbow sprain. He has been forced to miss the last two games as well and there hasn't been any word on his return just yet. Despite seeing around the same minutes he […]
Chris Duarte Considered Questionable Against Suns
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Chris Duarte (knee) has received a questionable tag for Friday's contest against the Phoenix Suns. The 26-year-old has missed the last two games due to left knee soreness and he possibly could miss a third. Since this game was added as a consolation from the in-season tournament, the start time is 11:00 […]
Torrey Craig Is Probable Against Spurs
Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig (knee) is dealing with some left knee soreness but he's still considered probable to go up against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night. The 32-year-old hasn't seen the floor as much as he did last season but currently averages 5.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game. Craig […]
Alex Caruso Expected To Play On Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) has been officially listed as probable for the team's Friday night game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's been dealing with the toe issue for a couple of weeks now and has only missed a couple of games from it so far. Since he's in line to play, he'll […]

Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (back) will have to miss his second game in a row due to a lower back contusion.

Both of them along with […]
Duncan Robinson Listed As Probable On Friday
Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (groin) is expected to play on Friday as he was listed as probable against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It seems as though the left groin strain that he's dealing with isn't limiting him too much as he's been able to play in the team's last four games. He also has been […]
Caris LeVert Won't Suit Up Against Heat
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out of his third consecutive game due to left knee injury management. Since he's listed as injury management, it doesn't seem as though he should miss that much more time. There hasn't been any clear word on when he's expected to return though. As he watches […]
Landry Shamet Ruled Out Again On Friday
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) will miss his second consecutive game on Friday with a right rib sprain. He doesn't have a firm timetable for his return right now, so Shamet could end up missing some more action after this game as well.

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero was on a roll against Cleveland on Wednesday and finished a 121-111 loss with a career-high 42 points on 16-for-26 shooting. Banchero's offensive game has been inconsistent throughout the season, but he certainly made up for it a bit with his performance on Wednesday. Defensively, Banchero contributed a pair of […]
LeBron James Questionable Again On Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (calf) continues to carry a questionable tag with him as the in-season tournament action is set to resume in Las Vegas on Thursday, with a semifinal against New Orleans scheduled for the team.
