  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Will play Saturday

    Wembanyama (ankle) will play Saturday against the Pacers, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

    Wembanyama will play through a questionable tag related to right ankle soreness. In his last outing Thursday against the Suns, Wembanyama had 34 points, 12 rebounds, one assist, three steals and one block.

  • Warriors' Quinten Post: Starting Saturday

    Post is part of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

    Post will start alongside Draymond Green in the frontcourt. In 34 starts this season, Post is averaging 9.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 20.6 minutes.

  • Warriors' Quinten Post: Good to go Saturday

    Post (foot) is listed as available for Saturday's game against the Hawks.

    Post had been previously considered questionable due to a right foot issue. However, the second-year center has been given the green light to suit up Saturday. With Al Horford (calf) and Kristaps Porzingis (back) sidelined, Post and Draymond Green will handle most of the center duties.

  • Yves Missi C | NO

    Pelicans' Yves Missi: Heading back to bench

    Missi won't start Saturday versus Cleveland.

    Missi started in two of the Pels' previous three contests, most recently amassing an 11-point, 11-rebound double-double in Thursday's win over the Los Angeles Clippers. However, with Dejounte Murray (Achilles) back in the equation, Missi will move to a reserve role versus a Cavs team that is still without Jarrett Allen (knee).

  • Goga Bitadze C | ORL

    Magic's Goga Bitadze: Bumped back to bench

    Bitadze will come off the bench for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

    Bitadze started in place of Wendell Carter on Thursday, but now that Carter is healthy, Bitadze will retreat to a reserve role. Bitadze has played eight or fewer minutes in each of his last five games as a reserve.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Cleared to face Miami

    Sengun (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

    Sengun will shed a questionable tag in time to face Miami on Saturday night. The star center was a late addition to the injury report Saturday due to back tightness. In his last 11 games, Sengun is averaging 19.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 5.5 assists across 31.7 minutes.

  • Magic's Wendell Carter: Cleared to face Lakers

    Carter (ribs) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

    Carter will shed a questionable tag to play in Saturday's contest. He had been dealing with a bruised left rib. Carter's return will likely push Goga Bitadze back to the second unit.

  • Naz Reid C | MIN

    Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Tabbed questionable

    Reid (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Boston.

    Reid has missed back-to-back games due to a sprained right ankle, but the 26-year-old big man has a chance to return Sunday. Reid's absence has allowed Joan Beringer and Kyle Anderson to see an uptick in playing time.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Nursing back injury

    Sengun is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Miami due to back tightness.

    Sengun missed two games earlier in the week due to a back issue but played in each of the Rockets' last two games, posting a double-double in both contests. If he's unable to play Saturday, then Clint Capela and Dorian Finney-Smith would be the top candidates to enter the Rockets' starting lineup.

  • Warriors' Quinten Post: Questionable versus Atlanta

    Post (foot) is questionable for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

    Post didn't play in Friday's loss to Detroit because of a nagging foot issue. The Warriors are already down Al Horford (calf) and Kristaps Porzingis (back) for this one. On top of that, Draymond Green (back) is also carrying a questionable designation. If Post can suit up, he could be looking at more action versus Atlanta. However, if Post and Green join Horford and Porzingis on the shelf, the Dubs should rely mostly on Gui Santos and Omer Yurtseven to handle the bulk of the work underneath the basket.
