Davis is healthy and participating in training camp after dealing with injury issues during the 2025-26 campaign, according to Wizards reporter Greg Finberg.

Davis was spotted going through on-court work alongside Trae Young during Wednesday's practice, providing further confirmation that he's healthy entering his first full season with Washington. The veteran big man should have the opportunity to ramp up throughout camp and the preseason without injury-related limitations.

Young (quadriceps) has been cleared for training camp and was spotted participating in on-court work during Wednesday's practice, according to Wizards reporter Greg Finberg.

Young's 2025-26 campaign ended with him sidelined by a right quadriceps contusion and lower-back irritation after appearing in just five games for Washington following his midseason arrival. His participation during the second day of camp indicates he's moved past those issues and enters the preseason healthy.

Clayton (knee) has been a full go at training camp, according to Grizzlies reporter Matt Infield.

Clayton missed the entire Summer League due to a sprained right knee, but he made no mention of it during Media Day. Clayton is competing for a roster spot in Memphis and is looking to make an impact in the preseason.

Wells (toe) has been a full participant to begin training camp, Grizzlies president of basketball operations Zach Kleiman said, according to Memphis reporter Landon Speck.

Wells has been cleared for full basketball activities after undergoing toe surgery in March and is practicing without restrictions during camp. His availability should give him plenty of time to ramp up during the preseason while competing for a prominent role on the wing.

Pippen is a full participant to begin training camp, Grizzlies president of basketball operations Zach Kleiman said, according to Memphis reporter Landon Speck.

Pippen continues to go through camp without any health-related restrictions, clearing the way for him to compete normally throughout the preseason. The guard's full participation is an encouraging after he underwent a toe procedure back in March. As Memphis begins sorting out its backcourt rotation ahead of the regular season, Pippen's battle with Ty Jerome will be one to watch.

Porter has been participating in training camp after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in April.

Porter's procedure ended his 2025-26 campaign after 38 regular-season appearances, during which he averaged 17.4 points, 7.4 assists, 5.2 rebounds and 2.2 steals in 33.2 minutes per game. His clearance for camp indicates he's moved past the knee issue entering 2026-27, though Porter will face increased competition for backcourt minutes following the offseason addition of Tyler Herro.

Herro is participating in training camp after undergoing a foot procedure back in April.

Herro's availability at the start of camp is an encouraging sign after he dealt with injury issues during the 2025-26 campaign. The veteran guard should have an opportunity to ramp up his workload throughout the preseason as Milwaukee prepares for its regular-season opener.

Jackson is still developing chemistry with Utah's core after having limited time alongside his teammates following his arrival last season, according to Jazz reporter Eric Spyropoulos.

Head coach Will Hardy said Tuesday that Jackson's familiarity with the roster doesn't change the fact that he's still early in the learning process after appearing in only three games for Utah last season. Hardy was encouraged by Jackson's communication during the Jazz's opening practice and highlighted the big man's versatility as something that gives the team several options. Developing chemistry with Lauri Markkanen and Keyonte George should be a point of emphasis throughout training camp.

Caldwell-Pope has made a strong impression during the early stages of his first training camp with Philadelphia, according to teammate Tyrese Maxey, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Maxey described Caldwell-Pope as "fantastic" Tuesday and highlighted the veteran wing's potential value as an example for younger players such as Justin Edwards. Caldwell-Pope's championship experience and defensive ability should give him an opportunity to carve out a regular role in Philadelphia's rotation while also providing a veteran presence for the team's younger wings.

Towns could see his playmaking responsibilities expand this season as New York looks to build on an adjustment that proved effective during last year's playoffs, Jared Schwartz of the New York Post reports.

Head coach Mike Brown indicated that the Knicks intend to feature Towns at the elbow more frequently, allowing the big man to facilitate with the ball in his hands. The approach could give Towns more opportunities to create for teammates while opening additional actions for OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges away from the ball.
