  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Late addition to injury report

    Duren is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Nets due to a left ankle sprain.

    It's unclear when Duren suffered his ankle injury, but he is now in danger of missing Saturday's contest. If Duren is ruled out, James Wiseman will likely draw the start against Brooklyn.

  • Mo Bamba C | UTA

    76ers' Mo Bamba: Active at shootaround

    Bamba (illness) participated in shootaround ahead of Saturday's game versus the Grizzlies, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Bamba is listed as questionable after missing Philadelphia's previous contest with a non-COVID illness. If Bamba is upgraded to available, his playing time will depend on Joel Embiid's (knee) status.

  • Joel Embiid C | PHI

    76ers' Joel Embiid: Goes through shootaround

    Embiid (knee) went through shootaround ahead of Saturday's game versus the Grizzlies, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Embiid is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Grizzlies. However, the superstar big man's participation in shootaround is a good sign of his availability.

  • Bam Adebayo PF | MIA

    Heat's Bam Adebayo: All-around performance in win

    Adebayo chipped in 18 points (7-12 FG, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Friday's 119-104 victory over the Rockets.

    Adebayo recorded his second straight double-double during Friday's win over Houston. The 26-year-old big man's season average of 10.7 boards per contest ranks 10th in the NBA. Across his last 10 outings, Adebayo is shooting 59.0 percent from the field and 53.3 percent on 1.5 three-point attempts per game.

  • Lakers' Anthony Davis: Good to go

    Davis (knee) will play and start in Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

    Although he has been an injury report regular, Davis has missed just one game since Feb. 3. Thus, it is not surprising to see him get the green light here. Barring any setbacks with his knee, look for the star big man to take on his usual workload in the frontcourt.

  • Grizzlies' Brandon Clarke: Considered questionable

    Clark is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup with the 76ers due to left Achilles maintenance.

    Clarke made his season debut March 27 and subsequently played four straight games. He sat out Memphis' previous game for rest purposes and is in danger of missing his second straight, as the Grizzlies could opt to again err on the side of caution. More clarity on his status should come closer to tipoff.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Rockets' Jock Landale: Provides spark off bench

    Landale accumulated 10 points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 26 minutes during Friday's 119-104 loss to the Heat.

    Landale recorded his second double-digit scoring outing in his last six appearances during Friday's loss to Miami. Across his last 10 games coming off the bench, Landale is averaging 8.1 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.1 blocks in 20.7 minutes on 54.0 percent shooting from the field.

  • Taj Gibson PF | MEM

    Pistons' Taj Gibson: Expected to return Saturday

    Gibson (hamstring) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Nets.

    Gibson is expected to return to action Saturday after missing Detroit's last nine contests with a right hamstring injury. However, the veteran big man has seen inconsistent playing time, even when available.

  • Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: First career double-double Friday

    Jemison registered 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Friday's 108-90 win over Detroit.

    Jemison started for the second consecutive game, and the former UAB standout delivered one of his best outings of the season Friday, posting his first double-double while notching a career-high mark in rebounds. Jemison is expected to remain in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against the 76ers if Santi Aldama (foot) or Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) end up being ruled out.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Double-double in Friday's loss

    Duren accumulated 17 points (6-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds and one steal across 24 minutes during Friday's 108-90 loss to Memphis.

    Duren notched his third double-double over his last five appearances, and the big man continues to put up quality numbers as one of the best two-way players in The Association. Duren has recorded 42 double-doubles across his 59 appearances.
