NBA Player News

Potter (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Potter will miss the second leg of this back-to-back set due to a left hip contusion, and his next opportunity to play will come Friday versus Milwaukee. With the Pacers extremely shorthanded Tuesday, Jay Huff, Jarace Walker and Johnny Furphy are candidates to see increased playing time due to Potter being sidelined.

Love (illness) is out for Tuesday's game against the Pacers.

Love was added to the injury report as doubtful due to an illness, and he's since been downgraded to out. Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh could pick up a few additional minutes in the frontcourt in Love's absence.

Sochan (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Sochan will miss a fourth consecutive contest due to a left quadriceps strain. The fourth-year forward's absence shouldn't affect the San Antonio rotation, though his next opportunity to suit up will come Thursday against the Mavericks.

Waters is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder with a left knee hyperextension.

Waters faces a short turnaround if he wants to be available for Thursday's tilt in Dallas. However, the forward has totaled a mere 14 minutes across his last four appearances, so Waters' absence doesn't appear to shake up the San Antonio frontcourt mix.

Castle (adductor) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Castle is in danger of missing a second straight game due to left adductor tightness. The Spurs should have a better idea of whether he'll go closer to Wednesday's tipoff at 9:30 p.m. ET.

Wiggins is out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks with left hamstring tightness.

After being a late addition to the injury report, Wiggins has been downgraded from questionable to out Tuesday. Friday's matchup in Boston marks the veteran forward's next chance to play. With Norman Powell (personal) doubtful, Nikola Jovic and Jaime Jaquez are both in line to handle an expanded role against Atlanta.

Randle (thumb) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Randle was also listed as questionable ahead of Monday's loss to Memphis due to left thumb soreness, though he was ultimately cleared to play. If he's unable to suit up Wednesday, Naz Reid would likely join the starting five, while Leonard Miller could enter the rotation.

Shannon (foot) is out for Wednesday's game against Toronto.

Shannon is still on the mend after suffering a left foot strain at the end of December. His next chance to suit up will arrive Friday against New Orleans.

Edwards is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors due to left elbow soreness.

Edwards dropped 39 points in his last appearance Monday against the Grizzlies but evidently picked up a minor elbow injury along the way. The team should have a better idea of his availability closer to tipoff.

Murray (ankle) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Murray has been cleared to resume on-court activities amidst his recovery from a left ankle sprain. However, the timetable for his return now appears likely to put him out of action until sometime after the mid-February All-Star break. Until De'Andre Hunter is ready to make his Kings debut, Malik Monk and Nique Clifford should both continue to occupy a sizable role in the rotation.
