  • Jalen Johnson SF | ATL

    Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Triple-doubles vs. Milwaukee

    Johnson finished Saturday's 122-99 win over the Bucks with 23 points (10-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 12 assists and 10 rebounds over 35 minutes.

    Johnson once again did a little bit of everything during Saturday's win. He had two triple-doubles in his career prior to the 2025-26 regular season, but Saturday marked his 12th triple-double of the season and second since the All-Star break. Johnson has taken a huge leap in his fifth year in the NBA, partly due to the absence and subsequent trade of Trae Young. Johnson has averaged 21.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.3 threes and 1.3 steals over 32.9 minutes per game since the All-Star break.

  • Cavaliers' Craig Porter: Won't play Sunday

    Porter has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Dallas due to a left groin strain.

    The groin injury is a new concern for Porter, who is set to miss his first game due to injury since Jan. 30. With the 26-year-old guard out, Keon Ellis and Dennis Schroder are candidates for a slight bump in minutes.

  • Isaiah Stewart PF | DET

    Pistons' Isaiah Stewart: Ruled out for Sunday

    Stewart has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raptors due to a left calf strain.

    The calf injury is a new concern for Stewart, and it's not a positive sign that he's being ruled out a day in advance of tipoff. With the 24-year-old big man unavailable, Paul Reed is expected to see increased burn behind Jalen Duren.

  • Tyrese Proctor PG | CLE

    Cavaliers' Tyrese Proctor: Not playing Sunday

    Proctor (quadriceps) is out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

    Proctor will be sidelined for a fifth straight game and doesn't have a clear timetable to return to action. The floor general hasn't played regularly for the Cavaliers, however, so his absence won't have much of an impact on the rotation.

  • Julian Reese PF | WAS

    Wizards' Julian Reese: Not available Saturday

    Reese (two-way) will be inactive Saturday for the Wizards' game in Boston.

    After signing a two-year, two-way contract with the Wizards on Feb. 28, Reese suited up for four of the Wizards' ensuing five games, averaging 8.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 steals in 31.3 minutes per contest over that stretch. However, with the Wizards recently getting the likes of Alex Sarr and Tristan Vukcevic back from injuries, Reese will now be inactive Saturday for a third straight contest. Per the terms of his two-way deal, Reese is eligible to play in just nine of the Wizards' remaining 16 games of the season after Saturday's contest, so he'll be in line for some more planned absences down the stretch.

  • Ausar Thompson SF | DET

    Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Probable for Sunday

    Thompson (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

    Thompson is on track to end a five-game absence due to a right ankle sprain, which would likely send Marcus Sasser back to the second unit. In his past seven outings before picking up the injury March 5, Thompson had averaged 11.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.0 blocks in 28.1 minutes per contest.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Out vs. Dallas

    Allen (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

    Allen will miss a fifth straight game Sunday, and the fact that he's once again being ruled out a full day before the game isn't encouraging, as there's no clear timetable for his return. Thomas Bryant should continue to see an expanded role in the frontcourt in Allen's absence.

  • Leaky Black SF | WAS

    Wizards' Leaky Black: Sitting out Saturday

    Black (two-way) will be inactive Saturday for the Wizards' game in Boston.

    In the Wizards' most recent game Thursday, Black played 28 minutes in a 136-131 overtime loss to the Magic, finishing with 12 points (4-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal. Though he's typically received meaningful minutes for the Wizards when he suits up, Black's availability for the rest of the season will remain limited while he's signed to a two-way contract. Washington will opt to hold Black out Saturday, and the third-year forward will now be eligible to suit up for 10 of the Wizards' remaining 16 games of the campaign.

  • Tobias Harris PF | DET

    Pistons' Tobias Harris: Off injury report for Sunday

    Harris (hip) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

    Harris sat out Friday's win over Memphis -- the second leg of a back-to-back -- due to left hip soreness. However, the veteran forward is set to return to action Sunday. With Harris returning to the lineup, Javonte Green should slide back to the second unit.

  • Max Strus SG | CLE

    Cavaliers' Max Strus: Trending toward debut Sunday

    Strus (foot) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

    Given the probable tag, it looks like Strus will make his 2025-26 regular-season debut Sunday. The seventh-year pro underwent surgery in late August to repair a Jones fracture in his left foot, but he has ramped up his activities and has been practicing with the G League's Cleveland Charge of late. Strus started 37 of his 50 regular-season games for the Cavaliers last season and averaged 9.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists over 25.5 minutes per game. He's likely to operate under a heavy minutes restriction off the bench when he returns.
