  • Tari Eason PF | HOU

    Rockets' Tari Eason: Questionable for Thursday

    Eason (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the 76ers.

    Eason was a late addition to the injury report. With Thursday being the front end of a back-to-back set, the Rockets may err on the side of caution.

  • Anthony Gill PF | WAS

    Wizards' Anthony Gill: Available for Thursday

    Gill (neck/back) is available for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

    Gill will clear his questionable tag for this contest despite dealing with two injuries. He may be a candidate for maintenance Friday against the Heat, however.

  • Jaden Hardy SG | WAS

    Wizards' Jaden Hardy: Out against Chicago

    Hardy (back) is out for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

    Hardy will be sidelined for his second straight contest. He was previously considered questionable, so he'll have a chance to return Friday against Miami.

  • Wizards' Justin Champagnie: Available to play

    Champagnie (knee) is available for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

    Champagnie will clear his questionable tag ahead of this contest. The Wizards will be shorthanded Thursday with Bilal Coulibaly (heel) being one of several players out, meaning Champagnie could see a sizable workload.

  • Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Listed out against Bulls

    Coulibaly (heel) is out for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

    Coulibaly will miss the front end of this back-to-back set, but he'll have a chance to return Friday against the Heat. With Couliably out, Jamir Watkins, Will Riley and Anthony Gill could see more run for the Wizards.

  • Tre Johnson SG | WAS

    Wizards' Tre Johnson: Ruled out Thursday

    Johnson (foot) is out for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

    Johnson will be sidelined for his third straight contest, though he could return Friday against the Heat. Jamir Watkins and Bub Carrington could be more involved in the backcourt with this news.

  • Dean Wade PF | CLE

    Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Plays 21 minutes in return

    Wade (ankle) produced eight points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during Wednesday's 122-116 win over the Hawks.

    Wade took back his spot in the starting five Wednesday after he had missed the Cavaliers' previous seven games due to a sprained ankle. He took on a relatively standard minutes load in his return, so his playing time shouldn't be expected to dramatically increase over Cleveland's final two contests of the regular season. Through 58 appearances, Wade is averaging 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 22.4 minutes.

  • Zeke Nnaji PF | DEN

    Nuggets' Zeke Nnaji: Scoreless in seven minutes

    Nnaji supplied zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over seven minutes during Wednesday's 136-119 victory over the Grizzlies.

    Nnaji made his return to the lineup after previously battling a hamstring injury. He's averaging 11.8 minutes across 50 appearances this season.

  • Jahmai Mashack SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Jahmai Mashack: Logs big minutes in return

    Mashack (concussion) ended Wednesday's 136-119 loss to Denver with nine points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven assists and three rebounds across 33 minutes.

    Mashack missed the Grizzlies' previous two games while in concussion protocol, but after gaining clearance for Wednesday's contest, he moved into the starting five and saw heavy minutes while Memphis listed 13 players out. Over his last seven appearances, Mashack is averaging 7.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.6 three-pointers in 27.3 minutes per contest.

  • Gary Trent Jr. SF | MIL

    Bucks' Gary Trent: Limited run in return

    Trent (hip) finished with seven points (3-12 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and one assist in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 137-111 loss to Detroit.

    Cleared to play following a three-game absence due to a left hip pointer, Trent came off the bench after he had started in each of his previous four appearances. Though Trent took on a 31.8 percent usage rate in his return, his poor shooting from downtown resulted in a disappointing fantasy line.
