  • Sam Merrill SG | CLE

    Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Won't suit up Sunday

    Merrill (hamstring) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Indiana.

    Merrill has been dealing with a left hamstring injury of late. Although he managed to suit up for Thursday's 118-111 win over the Warriors, he will take the night off versus Indiana before likely returning Monday in Memphis. Without Merrill in the rotation, Keon Ellis should see more work from off the bench.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Available to play

    Duren (illness) is available for Saturday's meeting with the 76ers.

    Duren will power through the illness and make himself available for Saturday's match. In two games against the 76ers this season, Duren has averaged 17.5 points, 13.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.5 swats per contest.

  • Tobias Harris PF | DET

    Pistons' Tobias Harris: Suiting up Saturday

    Harris (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the 76ers.

    Harris was initially given a questionable tag, but the veteran forward will suit up and should handle his regular workload in the Pistons' frontcourt next to Jalen Duren. Harris, who was limited to just six minutes in the win over the Timberwolves on Thursday, is averaging 13.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.0 blocks per game over his last 10 appearances.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Sitting versus Indiana

    Allen (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Indiana.

    Allen will take the night off Sunday before likely returning Monday in Memphis. With Evan Mobley (calf) out as well, Thomas Bryant will presumably find himself in the starting lineup, with Larry Nance in line for more work behind him from off the bench.

  • Paul George SF | PHI

    76ers' Paul George: Available to play Saturday

    George (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

    As expected, George will suit up and should handle a big role on offense due to the absence of Joel Embiid (knee). George is averaging 27.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 3.2 steals per game since returning from a 25-game suspension in late March.

  • Jaylon Tyson SF | CLE

    Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Won't play Sunday

    Tyson (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

    Sunday will mark Tyson's eighth straight game on the inactive list. With no positive updates on his progress, we wouldn't expect him to play Monday in Memphis.

  • Evan Mobley PF | CLE

    Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Ruled out against Indiana

    Mobley (calf) is listed as out for Sunday's game against Indiana.

    The Cavaliers are gearing up for what the team hopes is a deep playoff run. As such, Mobley will take the night off before presumably returning Monday in Memphis. With Dean Wade (ankle) out as well, Keon Ellis, Larry Nance and Nae'Qwan Tomlin could be spending more time than usual at the power forward position, with one of those players in line to start.

  • Dean Wade PF | CLE

    Cavaliers' Dean Wade: Ruled out for Sunday

    Wade (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Pacers.

    Wade continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff, which is not encouraging. For now, he should be considered doubtful for Monday's meeting in Memphis.

  • Jarace Walker PF | IND

    Pacers' Jarace Walker: Questionable for Sunday

    Walker (back) is questionable to play Sunday against the Cavs.

    Walker has missed the past three games, but it looks like there's a chance he could get back out there for Sunday's game. If Walker is cleared, Ben Sheppard might head back to the second unit. Check back for official confirmation on Walker's status closer to Sunday's tipoff.

  • Gui Santos SF | GS

    Warriors' Gui Santos: Probable for Sunday

    Santos (pelvis) is probable for Sunday's game against the Rockets.

    The probable tag suggests that Santos won't have an issue being available and handling his regular workload. The Brazilian forward is averaging 17.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game over his last 10 appearances.
