Eric Bledsoe Drops 30 Points On The Blazers In Win
Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe shot 11 of 21 against Portland on Thursday night to finish with 30 points, six assists and four rebounds.

It doesn't sound like Richardson will […]
Jeremy Lamb, T.J. McConnell Practice on Thursday
Indiana Pacers guards Jeremy Lamb (ankle) and T.J. McConnell (groin) were able to suit up for practice on Thursday. Lamb has missed the last seven games due to a left ankle sprain.

Malcolm Brogdon Doesn't Practice on Thursday
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) was unable to suit up for practice on Thursday. He's been sidelined since last Saturday due to back soreness. The Pacers don't play until Saturday, so there's a chance he does suit up for that one. However, the fact he wasn't able to practice on Thursday isn't a positive […]

Los Angeles Lakers guard Avery Bradley (leg) has been ruled out for the upcoming four-game road trip. Bradley is going to miss at least one more week of action.
