  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Available Wednesday

    Duren (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

    Despite being a late addition to the injury report, Duren is playing through knee soreness Wednesday. The All-Star big man has recorded six double-doubles in the past seven games, during which Duren has averaged 23.9 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 27.1 minutes per contest while shooting a potent 70.9 percent from the floor.

  • Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Ruled out Wednesday

    Ayton (back) has been downgraded to out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, Ryan Ward of SI.com reports.

    Ayton was a late addition to the Lakers' injury report Wednesday morning due to back soreness. The issue will prevent the veteran big man from suiting up, which will likely allow Jaxson Hayes and Jarred Vanderbilt to step into larger roles. Ayton's next chance to play will come Friday against Brooklyn.

  • Knicks' Ariel Hukporti: Rejoins parent club

    The Knicks recalled Hukporti from the G League's Westchester Knicks on Thursday.

    As expected, Hukporti will rejoin the Knicks ahead of their next game Thursday in Charlotte after a brief stint in the G League. The second-year big man suited up for Westchester in Tuesday's 114-104 win over the Long Island Nets, finishing with 32 points (13-23 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, four blocks and one steal in 37 minutes.

  • Myles Turner C | MIL

    Bucks' Myles Turner: Added to injury report

    Turner is questionable for Wednesday's game against Portland with right calf soreness.

    Turner is a late addition to the injury report, and he's been nursing calf issues for the past week or so. With Bobby Portis' (wrist) status also up in the air Wednesday, the Bucks may need to turn to Jericho Sims and Pete Nance to both take on a featured role in the frontcourt.

  • Kings' Dylan Cardwell: Pulls down 11 rebounds

    Cardwell finished Tuesday's 134-90 loss to the Hornets with six points (3-8 FG), 11 rebounds, one assist and one block across 24 minutes.

    Cardwell was part of an eight-man rotation for the injury-depleted Kings. His fantasy appeal remains limited to deeper leagues, as he's averaging 4.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.3 blocks in 17.8 minutes over his last six appearances.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Will remain out Wednesday

    Allen (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Heat.

    Allen's streak of absences will extend to double digits. He's battling right knee tendinitis, and the team continues to treat him as day-to-day. His next chance to suit up will come during Friday's rematch against the Heat before Cleveland starts a three-game road trip. Thomas Bryant should continue to see elevated minutes off the bench until Allen is cleared to play again.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Probable for Wednesday

    Duren (knee) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

    Duren was a late addition to the injury report for this contest with knee soreness, but he intends to play through it. Wednesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, however, so a maintenance day could be on the table for Thursday.

  • Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Questionable for Wednesday

    Ayton (back) is questionable for Wednesday against Indiana.

    Ayton was a very late addition to the injury report, though his injury is being described as soreness, which sounds minor. Given the opponent, the Lakers may be contemplating a maintenance day here. If Ayton is held out, Jaxson Hayes and Jarred Vanderbilt would likely be more involved for the Lakers.

  • Zach Edey C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Gets surgery on elbow

    The Grizzlies announced that Edey (ankle) underwent a procedure Tuesday to address lingering discomfort in his left elbow.

    Since he's already been in rehab mode and was ruled out for the rest of the season after undergoing surgery March 3 to address ongoing discomfort and bone stress in his left ankle, Edey opted to get his aching elbow taken care of with another procedure. Edey is expected to make a full recovery from both the ankle surgery and elbow procedure prior to the start of training camp. Before being shut down in mid-December due to the ankle issue, Edey looked to be in line for a second-year breakout, as he had converted at a 63.3 percent clip from the field and posted averages of 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, 1.1 assists and 0.6 steals in 25.8 minutes per game over his 11 appearances. The Grizzlies view the 7-foot-3 big man as a key building block and will plan for him to settle back in as their starting center in 2026-27 so long as he's able to stay healthy.

  • Warriors' Omer Yurtseven: Re-signs with Warriors

    Yurtseven signed a second 10-day contract with the Warriors on Wednesday, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

    This is an expected signing for Golden State's depleted frontcourt. Across five appearances, Yurtseven has averaged 11.2 minutes per contest.
