Hayes has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against Orlando due to a left finger injury, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports. He finished with one assist in two minutes.

Hayes appeared to suffer the injury at some point during the first quarter, and the Kings have since elected to shut him down for the rest of evening. The Kings will likely turn to Devin Carter and Malik Monk to cover the minutes at point guard while Hayes is sidelined.

Wolf (ankle) won't play Friday versus the Lakers.

This will be Wolf's third consecutive game on the inactive list, and it's not encouraging that he continues to get ruled out a full day in advance of tipoff. For now, he should be considered doubtful for Sunday's matchup with Sacramento.

Clowney (wrist) is probable for Friday's game against the Lakers.

Clowney is on track to return from a four-game absence Friday, but he'll likely have some minutes restrictions in his first game back. If Clowney is cleared, there will be less minutes available for Terance Mann, Ziaire Williams and Chaney Johnson.

Traore (rest) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Lakers.

Traore received a scheduled night off Wednesday, but he's been given the green light to suit up for Friday's tilt. The 19-year-old is averaging 9.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in his last five outings.

Krejci (calf) is listed doubtful for Friday's game against Dallas.

Krejci hasn't appeared in a game since March 15, and that appears unlikely to change while he takes a doubtful designation into Friday's contest. With Krejci trending toward another absence, the Trail Blazers should have spots on the second unit available for all of Matisse Thybulle, Kris Murray and Sidy Cissoko.

Williams (knee) is questionable to play Friday versus the Mavericks.

Williams logged only 13 minutes in Wednesday's win over Milwaukee, and Friday's game is not part of a back-to-back set, so it would be somewhat surprising to see Williams receive a rest day. However, if he is ruled out, that will open up minutes for Yang Hansen.

Leons (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's meeting with the Wizards.

Leons is set to return following a two-game stint on the sidelines, and he'll help fill minutes at the forward spots behind Gui Santos and Draymond Green. Leons is averaging 2.6 points and 2.0 rebounds per game this season.

Curry (thigh) is out for Friday's game against Washington.

Curry will miss another matchup due to a left thigh strain. His next chance to return will arrive Sunday in Denver.

Post (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Post is slated for a third straight absence due to right foot injury management. Al Horford (calf) has also been downgraded to out Friday, which could once again open up more chances for Omer Yurtseven and Malevy Leons in the frontcourt.

Horford (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Horford is set to sit out his eighth straight game, but the Warriors are expected to release an update on his rehab Friday. Kristaps Porzingis, Draymond Green and Omer Yurtseven will continue to hold down the center spot while Horford is out.
