  • Jock Landale C | ATL

    Hawks' Jock Landale: Pops for 17 points off bench

    Landale amassed 17 points (6-11 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Sunday's 115-104 win over Brooklyn.

    Landale didn't log heavy minutes, but he made the most of his opportunities off the bench in Sunday's victory. After coming up empty in four attempts from beyond the arc in Friday's blowout loss to Miami, the big man bounced back with a perfect showing from deep. Through seven appearances since being traded to Atlanta, Landale has reached double figures in scoring on four occasions.

  • Jalen Suggs SG | ORL

    Magic's Jalen Suggs: Won't play Sunday

    Suggs (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Clippers.

    Suggs will miss a second consecutive game due to back spasms. Jevon Carter, Jett Howard and Tristan da Silva are candidates for increased minutes with Suggs out.

  • Dyson Daniels SG | ATL

    Hawks' Dyson Daniels: All-around effort in win

    Daniels ended with seven points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists and three steals across 33 minutes in Sunday's 115-104 victory over the Nets.

    Daniels didn't reach double figures as a scorer, but he contributed double-digit rebounds while posting game highs in assists and steals in a win. Although his scoring output has dipped this season -- he entered Sunday averaging 11.5 points across 55 games after posting 14.1 points in 76 regular-season contests last year -- this performance highlights the value the young guard provides beyond putting the ball in the basket.

  • Bulls' Patrick Williams: Good to go

    Williams (hand) is available for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

    Williams was on the injury report due to a left hand injury, but he will be able to play through it Sunday. Over his last five appearances, Williams holds averages of 7.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.2 steals in 23.2 minutes per contest.

  • Hawks' Onyeka Okongwu: Double-double in win

    Okongwu logged 13 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 32 minutes during Sunday's 115-104 win over Brooklyn.

    Okongwu did his part in Atlanta's victory, anchoring the paint while scoring efficiently. Sunday marked the big man's 12th double-double of the season and his first of February. The 25-year-old entered the contest averaging 15.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.2 blocks while shooting 54.0 percent from the field and 54.2 percent from beyond the arc over his previous five appearances, production that reflects his scoring uptick and improved perimeter efficiency this year.

  • Jalen Johnson SF | ATL

    Hawks' Jalen Johnson: Double-double in win

    Johnson accumulated 26 points (11-22 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and one block across 38 minutes during Sunday's 115-104 win over the Nets.

    Johnson delivered a strong performance, leading all scorers and securing double-digit rebounds in a win. The Duke product has been dominant on the glass this season, recording at least 10 boards in 34 of 53 games and in eight of his past nine appearances. Entering Sunday averaging 8.2 assists per contest this campaign, the 24-year-old isn't just a double-double threat, but a legitimate triple-double candidate on a nightly basis.

  • Jalen Green SG | PHO

    Suns' Jalen Green: Available Sunday

    Green (hamstring) is available for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.

    Green was deemed questionable ahead of Sunday's contest due to a lingering hamstring issue, but he will be able to play through it. With Devin Booker (hip) and Dillon Brooks (hand) sidelined, Green figures to see high volume on the offensive end.

  • Grayson Allen SG | PHO

    Suns' Grayson Allen: Ruled out for Sunday

    Allen (ankle) won't play Sunday versus the Trail Blazers.

    Allen will join Devin Booker (hip), Dillon Brooks (hand) and Jordan Goodwin (calf) on the sidelines for Sunday's game, leaving the Phoenix backcourt quite thin. Expect major minutes and hefty usage for Collin Gillespie and Jalen Green. Allen's next chance to play will come Tuesday versus the Celtics.

  • Josh Giddey PG | CHI

    Bulls' Josh Giddey: On minutes restriction Sunday

    Giddey will be on a minutes restriction during Sunday's game against the Knicks, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

    Giddey recently returned to action after missing eight games due to a hamstring injury, and head coach Billy Donovan stated pregame that Giddey will have a minutes restriction for Sunday's game, as it is the second half of a back-to-back set. With Tre Jones also on a minutes restriction, Rob Dillingham and Collin Sexton could see slightly expanded roles off the bench.

  • Bulls' Nick Richards: Will play Sunday

    Richards (foot) will play Sunday against the Knicks, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports.

    Richards will continue to operate as Jalen Smith's primary backup Sunday evening. Through five games with the Bulls this season, Richards has mustered averages of 8.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per contest.
