  • Nets' Michael Porter: Ruled out Wednesday

    Porter (ankle, hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

    Porter is missing a fourth consecutive contest due to ankle and hamstring injuries. The star forward's absence should free up more playing time for Danny Wolf and Ziaire Williams in the frontcourt Wednesday.

  • Nolan Traore PG | BKN

    Nets' Nolan Traore: Cleared to play

    Traore (eye) is available for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

    As expected, Traore has been upgraded from probable to available and should slide back into the starting five. He's started 22 straight appearances, but the production has been lackluster, averaging 10.6 points, 4.5 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 combined steals-plus-blocks while shooting 41.1 percent from the field during that stretch.

  • Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Listed as questionable

    Nembhard (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Nembhard remains day-to-day after missing the past two games for Indiana. With the Pacers submitting yet another lengthy injury report, Nembhard could see a heavy usage rate if he's cleared to return.

  • Aaron Nesmith SF | IND

    Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Questionable for Wednesday

    Nesmith (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    After playing 24 minutes during the first half of Indiana's back-to-back set, Nesmith is in danger of sitting out the second half. He was sidelined for the first half of the Pacers' back-to-back set last week, but his production has been trending up, scoring in double figures in four straight appearances. However, his 24 minutes Tuesday were his fewest since March 6, though his limited playing time was likely due to the blowout nature of the loss to New York.

  • Ben Sheppard SG | IND

    Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Questionable for Wednesday

    Sheppard (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Sheppard could receive a maintenance day for the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Tuesday's game against New York, Sheppard scored seven points with five rebounds, one assist and two steals.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Pacers' Ivica Zubac: Iffy for Wednesday

    Zubac is listed questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to low back soreness.

    Zubac has appeared in four straight games since making his Pacers debut, including playing both halves of a back-to-back set and notably seeing 29 minutes during the second night. If Zubac is sidelined for the second half of Indiana's current back-to-back set, Jay Huff, Kobe Brown and Micah Potter (triceps) would be candidates for increased roles.

  • Pacers' Quenton Jackson: Iffy for Wednesday

    Jackson (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Jackson remains day-to-day after appearing in the past two games for Indiana. With Wednesday being the second leg of a back-to-back set, the Pacers are considering a maintenance day.

  • Obi Toppin PF | IND

    Pacers' Obi Toppin: Not available Wednesday

    The Pacers list Toppin (foot) out for Wednesday's game against Portland.

    Toppin will receive some maintenance for his surgically repaired right foot for the second leg of the back-to-back set. During Tuesday's loss to the Knicks, Toppin produced 15 points, three rebounds and three assists across 18 minutes.

  • Pascal Siakam PF | IND

    Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Listed out for Wednesday

    Siakam (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Siakam will be sidelined for a sixth straight game, and there's been no indication that he's close to a return. He can be considered doubtful for Saturday's game against the Spurs for the time being.

  • John Konchar SG | UTA

    Jazz's John Konchar: Upgraded to probable

    Konchar (calf) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

    Konchar was previously listed as questionable after missing three straight games. The veteran is averaging 1.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.3 steals over his last four appearances, and his playing time could dwindle even more if Ace Bailey (concussion) is cleared to suit up.
