RotoBaller NBA Recap: All Hail Jusuf Nurkic

When the Blazers and Kings took the floor Tuesday night, no player in the history of the NBA had ever recorded a 2o-plus point, 20-plus rebound, five-assist, five-steal, five-block game. 24 points, 23 rebounds, seven assists, five steals, and five blocks later, one of the most unlikely of candidates to accomplish this mystifying feat had […]

Rodney Hood Listed as Questionable on Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks.

Robert Covington Won't Play on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Robert Covington (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Covington is dealing with a sore right ankle, so he's not expected to miss a bunch of time. Both Josh Okogie and Dario Saric are going to see increased playing time.

Jonathon Simmons Ruled Out on Wednesday

C.J. McCollum Struggles From Beyond The Arc

Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum put up 16 points, two assists and one rebound on Tuesday against the Kings. McCollum was 0-for-5 from the three-point line.

Jeremy Lamb is Doubtful for Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks.
