  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Teases triple-double in big win

    Sengun posted 16 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and one steal across 36 minutes during Monday's 125-105 win over the Jazz.

    The fifth-year center fell just short of his third triple-double of the season, and the 11th of his career. Sengun has seen his offense taper off a bit in February as the Rockets struggle to find enough shots for everyone, but through nine games this month, he's still averaging 17.7 points, 8.8 boards, 6.3 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.0 steals.

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Powers way to double-double

    Duren totaled 25 points (10-13 FG, 5-6 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and two steals across 29 minutes during Monday's 114-103 loss to the Spurs.

    Duren performed well on the offensive end yet again Monday and has now hit on 66.7 percent of his field-goal attempts in two games since returning from a suspension. The 22-year-old also impressed on the glass and has secured a double-double in four of six February appearances. Duren will face another tough test against the Thunder on Wednesday.

  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Delivers another stellar showing

    Wembanyama registered 21 points (6-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 17 rebounds, four assists, six blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during Monday's 114-103 win over the Pistons.

    Wembanyama struggled with Detroit's physicality at times on the offensive end, as he appeared to be more concerned about drawing fouls rather than focusing on finishing at the basket. However, he still managed to reach the 20-point threshold despite hitting only six attempts from the field. Wembanyama was far more impressive in other areas, as he secured his best rebounding performance since Oct. 30 and dominated as a rim protector.

  • Luke Kornet C | SA

    Spurs' Luke Kornet: Cleared to return

    Kornet (leg) has returned to Monday's game against the Pistons, NBA reporter Matthew Tynan reports.

    Kornet went to the locker room during the first half after picking up a leg contusion, but the team has since given him the green light to return. He should be available as needed down the stretch.

  • Jaxson Hayes C | UTA

    Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Tagged doubtful for Tuesday

    Hayes (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Magic, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Coach JJ Redick said earlier in the day that the team is considering Hayes day-to-day, but it doesn't appear as though he'll be cleared to suit up for Tuesday's clash. Maxi Kleber would slot in as the backup center if Hayes is downgraded to out.

    Spurs' Luke Kornet: Picks up leg injury

    Kornet is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Pistons due to a right leg contusion, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Kornet picked up the injury in the first half and was spotted walking to the locker room with the team trainer. Kelly Olynyk could pick up a few extra minutes if Kornet is unable to return.

  • Naz Reid PF | CHA

    Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Iffy for Tuesday

    Reid (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Reid is in danger of missing a second straight matchup due to a right shoulder injury. The team should have another update on his availability closer to game time.

  • Al Horford C | GS

    Warriors' Al Horford: Iffy for Tuesday

    Horford is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans due to left toe injury management.

    Horford hasn't appeared on the injury report lately for the Warriors, so this appears to be a precautionary listing. The club should have another update on his availability closer to tipoff.

  • Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner: Probable with ankle sprain

    Kalkbrenner is probable for Tuesday's game against the Bulls with a sprained left ankle.

    The rookie big man picked up the issue in Sunday's game against the Wizards, but it appears to be of minimal concern. Moussa Diabate is set to return from suspension Tuesday, which is likely to send Kalkbrenner to the bench. Kalkbrenner has started four straight games, averaging 8.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.8 blocks in 26.3 minutes per tilt.

  • Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Set for Tuesday return

    Robinson (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.

    Robinson received a rest day Sunday as the team finished off the second half of a back-to-back. He'll be available off the bench in his usual capacity Tuesday. Robinson is averaging 6.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per game over his previous five outings.
