  • Coby White PG | CHA

    Hornets' Coby White: Available Saturday

    White (heel) is available for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

    A bruised heel won't stop White from playing Saturday, but he remains difficult to trust in fantasy lineups with his workload limitations. Over his first seven games for the Hornets, the star guard has averaged 11.9 points, 3.6 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 18.6 minutes per contest.

  • Spurs' Victor Wembanyama: Optimism to play Saturday

    Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson said that he's optimistic that Wembanyama (ankle) will play against the Hornets on Saturday, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.

    Wembanyama was unable to play against the Nuggets on Thursday due to a right ankle injury. The third-year phenom can be considered a game-time decision for Saturday's contest, and if he can't play, he'll likely be available for Monday's game against the Clippers. If Wembanyama is ruled out, then Luke Kornet would likely remain in the Spurs' starting lineup.

  • Caris LeVert SG | DET

    Pistons' Caris LeVert: Limited output in return

    LeVert (wrist) tallied four points (2-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two assists, one rebound and one steal across 23 minutes Friday in the Pistons' 126-110 win over the Grizzlies.

    Back in action following a three-game absence due to a left wrist sprain, LeVert saw solid playing time off the bench but was highly ineffective. In addition to failing to connect from deep, LeVert tied for a team high with three turnovers. LeVert should be able to retain a spot on the second unit moving forward, but he'll likely see his minutes drop slightly if either or both of Tobias Harris (hip) or Ausar Thompson (ankle) are able to play in the Pistons' next game Sunday in Toronto.

  • Dalen Terry SF | PHI

    76ers' Dalen Terry: Goes to locker room after fall

    Terry went to the locker room during the second quarter of Saturday's game against the Nets, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.

    Terry had a scary fall on layup attempt after Ben Saraf inadvertently tripped the former mid-air. Terry was able to attempt both of his free-throw attempts (making one) before being taken to the locker room, where he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. MarJon Beauchamp would be slated for a larger role in the second half if Terry is unable to return.

  • Warriors' Quinten Post: Questionable for Sunday

    Post is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Knicks due to a sprained left ankle.

    Post sustained the injury during Friday's loss to Minnesota, but it appears that he didn't come away with a high-grade sprain. The Warriors are already very thin down low, with Kristaps Porzingis (illness) and Al Horford (calf) both ruled out for Sunday, so they'd likely be left with Gui Santos and two-way player Malevy Leons to soak up the bulk of the center minutes if Post cannot play.

  • Al Horford C | GS

    Warriors' Al Horford: Not playing Sunday

    Horford (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    Horford strained his right calf during the first quarter of Friday's loss to the Timberwolves. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told reporters after the game that he expects Horford will miss time, per Anthony Slater of ESPN.com. It comes as no surprise seeing Horford scratched for Sunday's lineup, and the veteran big man will likely be sidelined for Monday's game against the Wizards. The Warriors will also be without Draymond Green (back) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness) on Sunday, so Golden State's frontcourt depth would be completely depleted if Quinton Post (ankle) is also unable to play.

  • Warriors' Draymond Green: Out for Sunday's game

    Green (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    Green will miss his second consecutive game as he continues to manage a lingering lower-back issue. The veteran forward was a late scratch for Friday's loss to Minnesota, and with the Warriors entering a back-to-back set beginning Sunday in New York, the team has elected to hold him out for at least the first leg. His absence, combined with Kristaps Porzingis (illness management) and Al Horford (calf) also being ruled out, leaves Golden State's frontcourt severely depleted, and relying heavily on Quinten Post (ankle) and Gui Santos.

  • Seth Curry SG | GS

    Warriors' Seth Curry: Out with adductor strain

    Curry is out for Sunday's game versus the Knicks with a left adductor strain.

    Curry left Friday's loss the Timberwolves due to left adductor soreness, which has since been diagnosed as a strain. It's unclear if the veteran guard is facing an extended absence, though his void in the lineup shouldn't have a major impact on the Golden State rotation.

  • Moses Moody SG | GS

    Warriors' Moses Moody: Won't play Sunday

    Moody is out for Sunday's game against the Knicks with a right wrist sprain.

    Moody is sidelined for a sixth consecutive contest, but he's set to join the Warriors for their upcoming six-game road trip. The swingman's continued absence Sunday frees up more playing time for names like Will Richard, Pat Spencer and Gary Payton in Golden State's injury-ravaged backcourt.

  • Warriors' Kristaps Porzingis: Ruled out for Sunday

    Porzingis (illness management) is out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    Porzingis will sit out the first leg of the Warriors' back-to-back set as the team continues to manage his recovery from a persistent illness. While he notched a season-high 20 points in his first start for Golden State on Friday, the medical staff is sticking to a strict maintenance plan to navigate his illness. By resting him Sunday, the Warriors aim to have him available for Monday's matchup against the Wizards.
