  • Yves Missi C | NO

    Pelicans' Yves Missi: Listed out for Saturday

    Missi (illness) is out for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

    Missi is set to miss a third consecutive game with an illness. The second-year big man should remain day-to-day prior to Monday's matchup with the Suns. With another absence looming for Missi, Kevon Looney and Derik Queen should share the center minutes once again.

  • Suns' Mark Williams: Secures another double-double

    Williams contributed 13 points (4-8 FG, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals across 28 minutes during Thursday's 115-102 victory over the Clippers.

    Williams turned in yet another strong showing across the board, notching his second double-double in as many games. He's posted four double-doubles through eight appearances this season and should continue to be a consistent source of points and rebounds now that he's officially taken over the starting center role.

  • John Collins C | LAC

    Clippers' John Collins: Submits another solid showing

    Collins logged 13 points (5-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in 23 minutes during Thursday's 115-102 loss to Phoenix.

    Collins was a definite bright spot off the bench for the Clippers, posting an efficient scoring line while also contributing on the defensive end. He's now scored in double figures in four straight matchups, knocking down 52.5 percent of his tries from the field during that stretch. Collins continues to be deployed as a reserve while Derrick Jones maintains hold of a spot in the starting lineup.

  • Ivica Zubac C | LAC

    Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Posts third double-double

    Zubac collected 23 points (8-14 FG, 7-8 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Thursday's 115-102 loss to the Suns.

    Zubac was the clear bright spot among LA's starting five, leading the team in both points and rebounds on the way to his third double-double of the season. This was a nice bounce-back performance across the board from the 28-year-old, who had totaled 16 points in his previous two appearances to begin November.

  • Kings' Domantas Sabonis: Officially questionable for Friday

    Sabonis (ribs) is questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Sabonis missed his second game of the season Wednesday due to a left ribcage contusion and is in danger of missing a third after being tagged as a game-time call for Friday's clash. The team should have a better idea of the big man's availability after he goes through shootaround and pregame warmups.

  • Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Off injury report for Friday

    Holmgren (lower back) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Kings, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

    Holmgren was held out of the second half of a back-to-back Wednesday as a precaution after he previously returned from to a lower back strain. He'll be ready to roll for Friday's matchup and will aim to continue his strong start to the year, averaging 20.6 points, 9.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.6 blocks through five appearances.

  • Zach Edey C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Listed out for Friday

    Edey (ankle), who was recalled from the G League's Memphis Hustle to the Grizzlies on Wednesday, is out for Friday's game against the Mavericks.

    Edey has been getting some practice reps with the G League club as he enters the final stages of his recovery from offseason ankle surgery. The second-year big man is closing in on a return, which could come as soon as Sunday's showdown with the Thunder. Until Edey is good to go, Jock Landale should continue to start at center while Charles Bassey holds down the backup role.

  • Luke Kornet C | SA

    Spurs' Luke Kornet: Another absence coming

    Kornet (ankle) won't be available for Friday's game against Houston, per NBA reporter Matthew Tynan.

    Friday will mark a sixth straight absence with an ankle sprain for Kornet. The veteran big man has no timetable for a return prior to Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans. With Kelly Olynyk (heel) questionable, it's possible Bismack Biyombo will need to play the backup center role behind Victor Wembanyama.

  • Steven Adams C | HOU

    Rockets' Steven Adams: Questionable vs. Spurs

    Adams (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs.

    The veteran big man is in jeopardy of missing a second consecutive game with a hip flexor. Clint Capela would likely take on the backup center role if Adams is out, with Tari Eason also being a candidate to soak up additional center minutes behind Alperen Sengun in this case.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Not expected to play Friday

    Davis (calf) is unlikely to play in Friday's game against Memphis.

    Davis is considered day-to-day with a low-grade calf strain, but he's not likely to suit up Friday. With the superstar big man in line for a fourth consecutive absence, P.J. Washington and Daniel Gafford should both play an expanded role.
