    Heat's Kel'el Ware: Huge performance off bench Saturday

    Ware supplied 24 points (10-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 19 rebounds, two assists and seven blocks in 36 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 152-136 win over the Wizards.

    The double-double was the 24th of the season for the second-year center, and the points and boards were his best performances in those categories since a 28-19 effort against the Knicks on Dec. 21. The seven rejections also tied his career high, a mark he first set March 5 against the Nets. Ware has been locked in from long range over the last couple weeks, averaging 10.9 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.9 threes and 1.4 blocks in 20.0 minutes a contest while shooting 48.1 percent (13-for-27) from beyond the arc.

  • Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Erupts for game-high 32 in win

    Jaquez totaled 32 points (12-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 32 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 152-136 victory over the Wizards.

    The third-year wing set a new season high in points and led all scorers on the afternoon, taking advantage of the defensive attention Washington paid to Bam Adebayo after the center poured in 83 points the last time the two teams met. Jaquez has scored in double digits in six straight games as the engine of the Heat's second unit, averaging 19.0 points, 5.2 boards, 3.5 assists, and 1.8 threes in 26.7 minutes over that stretch.

  • Amir Coffey SF | PHO

    Suns' Amir Coffey: Questionable for Sunday

    Coffey (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game in Chicago.

    Coffey hasn't played since March 19, so if he is cleared for Sunday's game, he'll likely have some minutes restrictions. Check back closer to Sunday's tipoff for official word on Coffey's status.

  • Jordan Goodwin SG | PHO

    Suns' Jordan Goodwin: Available for Sunday

    Goodwin (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Bulls.

    After leaving Thursday's game against the Hornets early, Goodwin is not even listed on the injury report. Over his last six games, he's averaging 8.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 2.3 steals.

  • Suns' Haywood Highsmith: Another absence coming

    Highsmith (knee) is out for Sunday's game against Chicago.

    Highsmith will miss a ninth straight game and remains without a timetable to return.

  • Grizzlies' GG Jackson: Doubtful for Sunday

    Jackson is doubtful to play Sunday in Milwaukee due to left knee soreness.

    Taylor Hendricks will likely be starting and getting all the run he can handle Sunday evening with Jackson out. There should also be more minutes available for Taj Gibson.

  • Javon Small PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Javon Small: Ruled out for Sunday

    Small (thigh) is out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

    Small is going to miss the front end of this back-to-back set, and it's likely maintenance related. If that's the case, he could be back to face the Cavaliers on Monday.

  • Cedric Coward SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Doubtful for Sunday

    Coward (back) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bucks.

    With Sunday's game being the front end of a back-to-back set, the Grizzlies are leaning towards a maintenance day. With the way the team has handled rotations in recent weeks, it's not a lock that Coward plays the second leg either.

  • Cam Spencer PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cam Spencer: Won't play Sunday

    Spencer (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Milwaukee.

    Spencer is in danger of missing his second straight game, which could result in major minutes for Adama Bal. Check back for official word on Spencer's status closer to Sunday's tipoff.

  • Jahmai Mashack SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Jahmai Mashack: Out with concussion

    Mashack is listed out for Sunday's game against the Bucks after being placed in concussion protocol.

    Mashack was diagnosed with the concussion after exiting Friday's 128-96 loss to the Raptors due to what the Grizzlies initially labeled as neck soreness. Sunday's contest marks the first of a back-to-back set, so the rookie second-round pick could have a tough time clearing the protocol ahead of Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
