  • Thunder's Isaiah Hartenstein: Not listed on injury report

    Hartenstein (calf) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Wizards.

    Hartenstein is set to return from a rest day, which should result in Aaron Wiggins heading back to the second unit. Hartenstein is averaging 9.7 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game this season.

  • Caleb Martin SF | DAL

    Mavericks' Caleb Martin: Iffy for Saturday

    Martin is questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers due to a bruised right heel.

    Martin is at risk of missing a third consecutive contest with the issue. If the veteran forward is unable to play once again, Khris Middleton and Klay Thompson could pick up a few extra minutes on the wing Saturday.

  • Jalen Williams SF | OKC

    Thunder's Jalen Williams: Remains out for Saturday

    Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.

    Williams hasn't played since Feb. 11 due to a right hamstring strain and remains without a clear timetable for a return. The star forward should be considered doubtful for future contests until the Thunder offer an update on his progress. His next opportunity to play will come in Philadelphia on Monday.

  • Mavericks' Brandon Williams: Ruled out with concussion

    Williams is out for Saturday's game against the Clippers due to a concussion.

    Williams is remaining in the league's concussion protocol for a second consecutive contest. His next chance to play comes Monday, when the Mavericks face the Warriors. Max Christie appears to be worth streaming in shallow fantasy formats and Ryan Nembhard in deeper settings Saturday.

  • Will Riley SF | WAS

    Wizards' Will Riley: Questionable for Saturday

    Riley is questionable for Saturday's game against Oklahoma City due to right adductor soreness.

    The rookie first-rounder is in jeopardy of missing his first contest since Jan. 9. A potential absence for Riley would likely free up a spot in the starting lineup for either Justin Champagnie or Jamir Watkins Saturday.

  • Leaky Black SF | WAS

    Wizards' Leaky Black: Won't play Saturday

    Black (ankle) will not play Saturday against the Thunder.

    Black will remain on the shelf for a fifth straight game and remains without a timetable to return. Consider him questionable at best for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

  • Tre Johnson SG | WAS

    Wizards' Tre Johnson: Iffy for Saturday

    Johnson is questionable for Saturday's game against the Thunder due to right foot soreness.

    The rookie swingman is in danger of sitting out for the first time since Feb. 8. If Johnson cannot play Saturday, more playing time would open up for Bub Carrington and Jaden Hardy in the backcourt.

  • Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Good to go Saturday

    Coulibaly (heel) is off the injury report for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

    The third-year forward has the green light to return from a two-game absence due to right retrocalcaneal bursitis. Coulibaly should take back a spot in the starting five, but his playing time could be volatile in a game in which the Wizards will be heavy underdogs. Over eight appearances in March, Coulibaly is averaging 15.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 2.1 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in 29.6 minutes per contest.

  • Trae Young PG | WAS

    Wizards' Trae Young: Ruled out for Saturday

    Young (quadriceps) is out for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

    Young will be sidelined for a third straight contest. At this point, it remains unclear if he will be able to return for the second leg of this back-to-back set Sunday against the Knicks. In the games that Young does play, he'll likely continue to see modest workloads.

  • Franz Wagner PF | ORL

    Magic's Franz Wagner: Listed out for Saturday

    Wagner (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

    Orlando hasn't yet clarified Wagner's timeline for a return with an ankle sprain. Barring any changes to his status, the star forward can be tentatively considered doubtful for future contests.
