  • Yang Hansen C | POR

    Trail Blazers' Yang Hansen: Cleared to play Sunday

    Hansen (face) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    Hansen didn't play in Thursday's loss to the Pelicans due to a face injury, but the rookie first-rounder has been cleared to play Sunday. He started in his last outing, but he'll likely come off the bench due to the returns of Donovan Clingan (lower leg) and Robert Williams (illness).

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Will play Sunday

    Clingan (leg) is good to go for Sunday's game versus the Warriors, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    Clingan is set to return from a three-game absence, which could result in Jerami Grant heading back to the second unit. There will also be fewer minutes available for Robert Williams, Duop Reath and Yang Hansen.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Good to go Sunday

    Williams (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    The Trail Blazers are getting some reinforcements for their frontcourt Sunday with Williams returning from a three-game absence. Donovan Clingan (leg) is also good to go, so Williams will likely reprise his role as the backup center.

  • Jusuf Nurkic C | UTA

    Jazz's Jusuf Nurkic: Will rest Monday

    Nurkic (rest) will not play Monday against Dallas, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

    This is simply a maintenance day for Utah's starting center. He'll likely be back in the lineup Thursday against the Lakers. With Nurkic resting, players such as Kevin Love, Kyle Filipowski and Taylor Hendricks could be more involved for the Jazz.

  • Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Questionable for Monday

    Gafford (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game in Utah.

    Gafford has missed the past three games for Dallas, but this is the first time he's received the questionable tag since aggravating his ankle injury. We'll have a better idea on Gafford's status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if he is able to get back out there, Dwight Powell's minutes would dip.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Iffy for Monday

    Davis is questionable to face the Jazz on Monday due to a left calf contusion.

    This is a new issue for the big man, and the Mavericks could proceed with caution. In addition to Davis, Daniel Gafford (ankle) is also questionable for Dallas. If the Mavericks are shorthanded in the frontcourt, the team could turn to Moussa Cisse and Dwight Powell.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Pacers' Jay Huff: Nets 13 points with four swats

    Huff recorded 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds and four blocks over 25 minutes during Sunday's 108-89 loss to the Wizards.

    This was Huff's eighth game this season with at least four swats, and his third over the past four. Not only does Huff lead the league in total blocks this season with 66, but he has 21 more blocks than the guy in the No. 2 spot, Victor Wembanyama.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Pours in 23 points in win

    Bagley produced 23 points (9-14 FG, 5-10 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 32 minutes of Sunday's 108-89 win over the Pacers.

    Bagley kept his foot on the gas Sunday and notched his second straight double-double, after he recorded 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and 13 rebounds during Friday's 130-126 loss to the Cavaliers. Alex Sarr (adductor) has missed six games in a row and is without a clear target date for a return, so Bagley's window to produce solid fantasy numbers remains open for the time being.

  • Joel Embiid C | PHI

    76ers' Joel Embiid: Available to play

    Embiid (knee) is available for Sunday's game in Atlanta, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

    Embiid will look to build off Friday's 39-point performance, and he should be busy on offense due to Tyrese Maxey (illness) being out again. With Embiid active, Andre Drummond will be a less attractive target in fantasy leagues, as he'll be confined to a reserve role. Sunday will mark the first time this season that Embiid will have appeared in two games in three nights.

  • Celtics' Chris Boucher: Available for Monday

    Boucher (illness) will be available for Monday's game against the Pistons.

    Boucher is no longer showing up on the injury report for Boston. He hasn't been a part of the team's recent rotation, however.
