  • Anthony Davis PF | WAS

    Lakers' Anthony Davis: Iffy against Utah

    Davis (Achilles/hip) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Jazz.

    Davis has only missed four games so far this season but continues to deal with nagging Achilles and hip injuries. If the Lakers opt to hold out the star big man for the second leg of their back-to-back Wednesday, Jaxson Hayes and Christian Wood should receive increased playing time.

  • Celtics' Xavier Tillman: Won't play Wednesday

    Tillman (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nets, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

    Tillman continues to deal with a knee injury and will be unable to suit up for his new team before the All-Star break. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action.

  • Al Horford C | GS

    Celtics' Al Horford: Out Wednesday

    Horford will miss Wednesday's game against the Nets due to a left big toe sprain, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

    This injury likely isn't something fantasy managers need to worry about going forward, as Horford doesn't play in both games of back-to-back sets to keep him fresh for the postseason. Kristaps Porzingis (back) has been removed from the injury report and will reclaim his starting center role.

  • Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis: Not on injury report

    Porzingis (back) isn't listed on Boston's injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Nets, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

    Porzingis missed Tuesday's win over Brooklyn to rest his back but will return to action for Wednesday's rematch. Al Horford (toe) and Xavier Tillman (knee) are both out, so Porzingis will likely need to play heavy minutes in Boston's frontcourt.

  • Bam Adebayo C | MIA

    Heat's Bam Adebayo: Records triple-double in rout

    Adebayo ended Tuesday's 123-97 win over the Bucks with 16 points (8-14 FG), 12 rebounds, 11 assists and two steals in 31 minutes.

    With each of Jimmy Butler (personal), Terry Rozier (knee) and Josh Richardson (shoulder) out of action, Adebayo stepped up with one of the best all-around games of the campaign. The triple-double was the big man's second of the season and seventh of his career. Adebayo has averaged 17.7 points, 10.8 boards, 4.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks through six contests in February.

  • Magic's Wendell Carter: Hits for 22 against OKC

    Carter closed with 22 points (9-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 loss to the Thunder.

    The 24-year-old center produced at least 20 points for the first time since Jan. 26, and the third time this season. Since moving into the starting lineup 12 games ago, Carter is averaging 13.1 points, 6.7 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.3 threes while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor.

  • Raptors' Jontay Porter: Doubtful for Wednesday

    Porter is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pacers with a right ankle sprain.

    The Raptors will likely play it safe with the All-Star break looming. Porter's expected absence probably won't affect the rotation much, as he's played a total of 21 minutes across three February appearances.

  • Myles Turner C | MIL

    Pacers' Myles Turner: Questionable for Wednesday

    Turner is questionable for Wednesday's game against Toronto due to an illness.

    Turner was a late addition to Wednesday's injury report, and it's unclear whether he'll be available for the Pacers' final game before the All-Star break. If he's sidelined, Isaiah Jackson and Pascal Siakam are candidates to see increased work.

  • Pistons' James Wiseman: Surprises with 18 points

    Wiseman had 18 points (8-12 FG, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 125-111 loss to the Lakers.

    Wiseman was an unexpected surprise considering Jalen Duren's form hold on the starting job. The duo split even minutes in the loss, but the metrics suggest that the increase is just a blip on the radar. The Pistons have little to play for, so we may see increased tinkering with the lineup after the All-Star break, and that could have a positive affect on Wiseman's totals.

  • Kings' Domantas Sabonis: Dominates with triple-double game

    Sabonis finished Tuesday's 130-125 loss to the Suns with 35 points (14-22 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 18 rebounds, 12 assists, three blocks and one steal in 39 minutes.

    Sabonis impressed while leading all players in Tuesday's contest in rebounds and assists to go along with a team-high trio of blocks en route to ending as one of two Kings players with 35 or more points in a triple-double outing. Sabonis has recorded at least 35 points in two games this season, adding at least 10 boards and 10 assists in both of those games. He has tallied a triple-double in 18 outings, including in five of his last six appearances.
