  • Wizards' Anthony Davis: Ruled out for Wednesday

    Davis (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

    Davis hasn't played since Jan. 8 due to ligament damage in his left hand and remains without a clear timetable for a return. Considering the Wizards own a 17-58 record, it wouldn't be surprising to see the star big man miss the remainder of the season. For now, he can be considered doubtful for future contests until the club offers an update on his progress.

  • Joel Embiid C | PHI

    76ers' Joel Embiid: Not listed on injury report

    Embiid (illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

    Embiid was under the weather during Monday's loss to the Heat, when he posted 26 points (10-25 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block in 34 minutes. However, the illness won't cause him to miss Wednesday's contest. The star big man has appeared in three straight outings, averaging 30.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.3 blocks in 32.7 minutes per contest over that stretch.

  • Alex Sarr C | WAS

    Wizards' Alex Sarr: Game-time call for Wednesday

    Sarr (toe) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Philadelphia.

    Sarr was also listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Lakers before ultimately being downgraded to out, so it seems he's closing in on a return. The Wizards should have more to share on his status as tipoff approaches.

  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Hawks' Jock Landale: Iffy for Wednesday

    Landale (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Magic, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

    Landale is in danger of missing his second consecutive matchup due to illness. The team should have a clearer idea of his availability closer to tipoff.

  • Celtics' Neemias Queta: Removed from injury report

    Queta (thumb) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against Miami, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

    After sitting out Monday's loss to the Hawks with a thumb injury, Queta is ready to get back into the lineup Wednesday and will likely push Luka Garza to the bench. Queta has averaged 11.0 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 27.9 minutes per contest across his last eight games, shooting 69.1 percent from the field during this stretch.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Available Tuesday

    Allen (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Lakers.

    Allen is set to return after getting the night off Monday against the Jazz. In Allen's most recent performance Friday against Miami, he looked sharp with 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and one block over 18 minutes.

  • Suns' Mark Williams: Sitting out again

    Williams (foot) is out for Tuesday's game against the Magic.

    Williams hasn't played since March 3 due to a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot, though he was recently cleared for 5-on-5 at practice. His next chance to play comes Thursday against Charlotte. Until Williams is cleared to play, Oso Ighodaro should continue to start at center.

  • Mavericks' Marvin Bagley: Sitting out again

    Bagley (shoulder) is out for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

    Bagley will be sidelined for a second straight contest. With this news, Dwight Powell is likely to soak up the backup center minutes behind Daniel Gafford.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Probable for Tuesday

    Duren (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

    Duren is likely to get the green light to suit up for the second leg of this back-to-back set after missing Monday's game against the Thunder. With Duren expected back, Paul Reed could lose a lot of streaming appeal.

  • 76ers' Andre Drummond: Exits rotation

    Drummond (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Monday in the 76ers' 119-109 loss to the Heat.

    Drummond had appeared in each of the 76ers' last seven games, averaging 5.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 three-pointers in 19.6 minutes during that stretch. However, his role had been trending down in the latter two contests, which coincided with Joel Embiid's return from a long-term absence due to an oblique strain. Drummond played five minutes of garbage time in a 20-point win over Chicago on Wednesday, then played six minutes at the start of the fourth quarter in Saturday's 118-114 win over the Hornets. Head coach Nick Nurse opted to lean exclusively on Adem Bona as Embiid's backup in Monday's contest, resulting in Drummond dropping out of the rotation.
