Branham (recently traded) is out for Saturday's game against the Hawks.

After coming over in a trade from the Mavericks on Thursday, Branham has yet to join the Hornets. His next opportunity to do so comes Monday against the Pistons.

Love (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Magic.

Love is in danger of missing a third consecutive game while battling through an illness. Kyle Filipowski would be in line for an uptick in playing time if Love is not cleared to return Saturday.

Washington (concussion) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Washington is ready to return after missing two games with a concussion. Over his last six appearances, the forward has averaged 11.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 steals in 28.8 minutes per game.

George (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Magic.

George has a chance to return Saturday from a three-game absence due to a left ankle sprain. Isaiah Collier has filled in admirably over Utah's last three games and would presumably remain in the starting lineup if George is not cleared to play.

The Pelicans waived Terry on Friday, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Terry, who was traded twice in the span of two days, will now hit the open market. Across 204 career regular-season games, Terry holds averages of 3.3 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.2 assists.

Agbaji (recently traded) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

Agbaji appears ready to make his Nets debut Saturday. The forward should be available off the bench, but it's perhaps too early in his Brooklyn tenure to tell if he'll take the court in a meaningful way against Washington.

Minott is available for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

The Celtics traded Minott to the Nets on Thursday, and the forward will be available to make his Brooklyn debut Saturday. He fell out of favor in Boston, and it will be interesting to see if he can carve out a role with his new team.

Hardy (recently traded) is out for Saturday's game against the Nets.

Wednesday's trade centered around Anthony Davis (finger) still isn't official, so Hardy is unable to make his Wizards debut. His next opportunity to do so arrives Sunday against the Heat.

Russell (recently traded) is out for Saturday's game against the Nets.

Wednesday's Anthony Davis (finger) trade is still pending, which means Russell isn't ready to make his Wizards debut. His next chance to do so comes Sunday against Miami.

Johnson (ankle) is out for Saturday's game versus Brooklyn.

Johnson will be sidelined for a fifth straight game and remains without a target date to return. He should be considered highly questionable to return Sunday against the Heat.
