    Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Remains out for Saturday

    Holmgren (knee) remains out for Saturday's road game against Houston, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.

    Holmgren will miss a third consecutive contest due to a right knee issue. His next chance to play will come Monday against Cleveland. Kenrich Williams, Jaylin Williams and Brooks Barnhizer are candidates for a significant bump in minutes due to the Thunder being shorthanded.

  • Quinten Post C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Quinten Post: Doubtful for Saturday

    Post (ankle) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Kings.

    A right ankle sprain is expected to cost Post at least one contest. Assuming he's eventually downgraded to out, more playing time should fall into the hands of Isaiah Stewart as the No. 2 center Saturday.

  • Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Cleared to play Friday

    Towns (wrist) is available for Friday's meeting with the 76ers, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

    Towns sustained a left wrist sprain in Wednesday's win over the Bulls. He was able to play through the injury and will now suit up for Friday's contest after drawing a probable tag. The star big man is averaging 21.8 points, 13.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 31.0 minutes per game across five regular-season outings.

  • Heat's Simone Fontecchio: Suiting up Friday

    Fontecchio (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Fontecchio will return from a one-game absence due to an illness. However, he isn't guaranteed to see meaningful playing time.

  • Santi Aldama C | DAL

    Mavericks' Santi Aldama: Out again Friday

    Aldama (knee) is listed as out for Friday's game against the Rockets.

    Aldama continues to make progress in his recovery from right knee surgery, though he won't be ready to suit up for Friday's meeting with Houston. Without Aldama on the floor, Zaccharie Risacher, Morez Johnson, Caleb Martin and Moussa Cisse should all continue to see extra minutes.

  • Mavericks' Tarik Biberovic: Ruled out Friday

    Biberovic (heel) is out for Friday's game against the Rockets.

    Right heel bursitis continues to plague Biberovic. Monday's tilt versus the Kings marks his next chance to make his league debut.

  • Naji Marshall SG | DAL

    Mavericks' Naji Marshall: Good to go Friday

    Marshall (illness) is available for Friday's game against Houston.

    Marshall initially drew a questionable tag before being upgraded to probable Friday afternoon, and he's since been cleared to play following a two-game absence. The 28-year-old forward is averaging 13.7 points, 5.7 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals across 27.7 minutes per contest in three regular-season games (one start). With Marshall back in action, Caleb Martin and Zaccharie Risacher could see fewer minutes.

  • Tre Johnson SG | WAS

    Wizards' Tre Johnson: Available Friday

    Johnson (Achilles) is available for Friday's game against Charlotte.

    Johnson will shed his questionable tag due to right Achilles tightness and return from a one-game absence. The second-year guard is averaging 12.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.8 triples across 22.8 minutes per contest in four regular-season outings.

  • Noah Clowney PF | BKN

    Nets' Noah Clowney: Available to play Friday

    Clowney (illness) is available for Friday's game against Detroit, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.

    Clowney popped up on the injury report due to an illness. However, he now has the green light to suit up for Friday's game versus the Pistons. The 22-year-old hasn't had a productive 2026-27 campaign, averaging 6.3 points and 4.0 rebounds over 21.5 minutes per contest in four regular-season appearances.

  • Hornets' Dennis Schroder: Will play Friday

    Schroder (foot) is available for Friday's game against the Wizards.

    After beginning the day with a questionable designation, Schroder was upgraded to probable Friday morning and is now fully cleared to suit up. The journeyman floor general has been serviceable filling in for the injured Coby White (calf) at point guard, averaging 14.0 points, 4.6 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 three-pointers in 32.4 minutes per game over five appearances thus far.
