  • Jerami Grant PF | POR

    Trail Blazers' Jerami Grant: Remains out for Thursday

    Grant (calf) won't play in Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

    Grant will miss another game as a result of a calf strain. While he is on the shelf, Scoot Henderson is expected to remain with the first unit after starting the last two contests.

  • Vit Krejci SF | POR

    Trail Blazers' Vit Krejci: Ruled out for Thursday

    Krejci (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

    Krejci will miss a 10th straight game due to a left calf contusion and is without a clear timetable for a return. His next opportunity to suit up will come Monday against the Nuggets.

  • Shaedon Sharpe SG | POR

    Trail Blazers' Shaedon Sharpe: Ruled out for Thursday

    Sharpe (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

    Sharpe will remain sidelined as he continues to recover from a stress reaction in his left fibula. The young guard has been out since early February, and while the initial four-to-six-week re-evaluation timeline provided by the team Feb. 24 has essentially passed, the Trail Blazers have yet to issue a formal update on his progress. With the regular season winding down, Portland will likely continue to exercise extreme caution. Scoot Henderson should maintain his expanded role in the backcourt while Sharpe remains out.

  • Gui Santos SF | GS

    Warriors' Gui Santos: Won't suit up Wednesday

    Santos (pelvis) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

    Santos will miss the front end of this back-to-back set due to a right pelvic contusion, marking his first absence since Jan. 19. His next chance to play will come Thursday against the Cavaliers. With the Warriors set to be very shorthanded in the frontcourt, Malevy Leons and Nate Williams could see a significant bump in minutes.

  • Obi Toppin PF | IND

    Pacers' Obi Toppin: Playing versus Chicago

    Toppin (foot) is available for Wednesday's game against Chicago.

    Toppin will shed his probable tag and suit up versus the Bulls. The 28-year-old has played relatively well of late, combining for 47 points, 13 rebounds, nine assists and three steals in his last three appearances.

  • Pascal Siakam PF | IND

    Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Available Wednesday

    Siakam (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bulls.

    As expected after being listed as probable, Siakam will power through his lingering right knee issue to suit up for a sixth consecutive contest. Siakam has thrived against Chicago throughout this campaign, averaging 26.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists across three previous meetings.

  • Garrett Temple SF | TOR

    Raptors' Garrett Temple: Available against Sacramento

    Temple (shoulder) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Kings, per Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic.

    Following a whirlwind day of status updates in which he went from ruled out to questionable and then probable, the veteran is officially available for the second leg of Toronto's back-to-back set. Despite gaining clearance, Temple functions almost exclusively as an emergency depth piece, so he remains well off the fantasy radar.

  • Scottie Barnes PF | TOR

    Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Available versus Sacramento

    Barnes (shoulder) is available for Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.

    Barnes was initially listed as questionable for this contest. However, he was later upgraded to probable and has now been given the green light to suit up. Barnes has dished out at least 10 assists in each of his last five appearances, although he is coming off a five-point effort in Tuesday's 127-116 loss to Detroit. With that said, he has an excellent chance of turning it around Wednesday versus one of the worst defensive squads in the Association.

  • Rayan Rupert SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Rayan Rupert: Inactive Wednesday

    Rupert (two-way) is listed out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

    Rupert will hit the inactive list for a second consecutive contest as the Grizzlies aim to preserve his eligibility for the remainder of the season. The two-way player's next chance to suit up will come Friday against Toronto. After Wednesday, he'll be eligible to play in four of Memphis' final six games.

  • Sam Hauser SF | BOS

    Celtics' Sam Hauser: Starting Wednesday

    Hauser will start Wednesday's game against the Heat.

    After shifting to a bench role for Monday's matchup against the Hawks, Hauser will rejoin the first unit Wednesday. The sharpshooter has been in a slump recently, averaging just 5.4 points while shooting 30.3 percent from deep in his past eight games. Hauser will look to get back on track and provide his usual floor spacing alongside Jayson Tatum against Miami.
