Terry Rozier Downgraded To Out Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) has been officially ruled out Sunday against the Atlanta Hawks.

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (quadriceps) isn't expected to play on Sunday versus the Hawks.

Terry Rozier Doubtful On Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's meeting with the Atlanta Hawks. The 28-year-old sprained his right ankle during Friday's game versus the New Orleans Pelicans and was seen leaving the arena wearing a boot.

Cameron Johnson Practices On Saturday
Phoenix Suns forward Cameron Johnson (hip) was able to get up shots during practice on Saturday. It sounds like Johnson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

The veteran sniper logged 36 minutes in Friday's loss against Memphis and he's getting time off to nurse a right groin problem.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (ankle) will miss Saturday's clash with Boston after getting hurt Friday night.

Jamal Murray Questionable For Friday Night
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday as the team continues injury management for his left knee.

Cody Martin Exits During Wednesday's Game
Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin (quad) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's season opener. The 27-year-old left in the first quarter and didn't return to the contest. At the moment, Martin should be considered day-to-day with a sore left quad. This is a shame after Martin missed time in the preseason due to a […]
Alex Caruso Available Against Miami
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (calf) will play during the season-opener against Miami. He was trending in that direction all along, so his availability isn't a surprise.

Quentin Grimes Ruled Out Versus Memphis
New York Knicks guard Quentin Grimes (foot) won't play on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 22-year-old has been bothered by left foot soreness, an injury that could keep him out beyond the season opener. However, considering Grimes is deep down on the depth chart, his absence won't impact many fantasy managers.
Victor Oladipo Ruled Out Against Bulls
Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (knee) won't play in the season-opener against the Bulls. The veteran has a bout of tendonitis in his left knee, so it's certainly possible he will miss more time beyond Wednesday night. As a result, Max Strus and Duncan Robinson should see more minutes. However, with Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, […]
Alex Caruso Expected To Play Against Miami
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (calf) is expected to play on Wednesday versus the Miami Heat. Lonzo Ball (knee) is already out, and Zach LaVine (knee) is questionable, so Caruso may see even more minutes than anticipated.
