NBA Player News

Coach Darvin Ham said Tuesday that Davis (knee) will play in Wednesday's game versus the Wizards "in all likelihood," Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

Davis logged just 28 minutes against Toronto on Tuesday and should be able to suit up for the second leg of the Lakers' back-to-back. However, the star center will likely still appear on the Lakers' injury report.

Bagley (knee) finished Tuesday's 117-113 win over the Bucks with four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal in nine minutes.

After exiting Tuesday's contest with 7:59 remaining in the second quarter due to a right knee sprain, Bagley was unable to re-enter the game. In his absence, Tristan Vukcevic saw increased playing time. Bagley's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers.

Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd said Tuesday that Lively (knee) "could be out up two weeks," Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Lively had already been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game at Golden State with right knee soreness, but the timeline provided by Kidd suggests that the rookie center could be in danger of missing the remainder of the regular season. For whatever length of time Lively is sidelined, Daniel Gafford could see a boost in playing time as the Mavericks' starting center, while Maxi Kleber and Dwight Powell may also see expanded roles in Kidd's rotation.

Jokic (hip/wrist) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Spurs.

Jokic has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite continuing to deal with hip and wrist inflammation. The superstar big man should be able to handle his typical workload.

Bagley was helped to the locker room after suffering a knee injury on an awkward fall during Tuesday's game against Milwaukee, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

The Wizards have not offered a diagnosis yet, but the fact that Bagley was helped off the court while holding the outside of his right knee is not a good sign for his potential return. If he can't return, Eugene Omoruyi and Tristan Vukcevic would be in line for more prominent roles the rest of the game, especially considering Kyle Kuzma (heel) and Richaun Holmes (toe) remain sidelined.

Embiid (knee) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Thunder.

Embiid will return to action Tuesday after missing Philadelphia's previous 29 contests due to a left knee injury. With Mo Bamba (illness) out, the reigning MVP will reclaim his spot in the starting lineup. However, Embiid will operate under a minutes restriction, likely leaving increased playing time for Paul Reed.

Davis (knee) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Raptors, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

As expected, Davis has been upgraded from questionable to available despite dealing with a lingering knee injury. The star big man has recorded at least 22 points and 14 rebounds in each of his last six outings.

Robinson (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Heat, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Robinson will return to action Tuesday after missing the Knicks' previous contest with an ankle injury. The 25-year-old big man should continue to serve as the backup center to Isaiah Hartenstein until he is able to handle a full workload.

Hayes (calf) is active for Tuesday's game against Toronto, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

Hayes will return from one-game absence due to a left calf contusion. Anthony Davis (knee) remains questionable but is expected to suit up Tuesday as well, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Embiid (knee) has been upgraded to questionable and is expected to play Tuesday against the Thunder, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Embiid was initially ruled out for Tuesday's game, but he ascended to questionable a couple of hours before tipoff and is set to make his first appearance since Jan. 30. Coach Nick Nurse does expect the reigning MVP to have some restrictions during his first game back, per Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com, but the timing of Embiid's return should allow him to get back to 100 percent by the time the playoffs roll around, barring a setback.
