  • Hornets' Mark Williams: Pulls down 13 rebounds

    Williams racked up eight points (4-7 FG), 13 rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 111-104 loss to the Magic.

    Williams wasn't much of an offensive weapon for the Hornets, but he made his presence felt on the glass and recorded double-digit boards for the sixth time over his last eight outings. A bit more consistency on the scoring side of things would be a boost for the Hornets, but overall, Williams has been getting the job done on both ends of the court. Over that aforementioned eight-game stretch, Williams is averaging 14.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and a combined 2.9 steals-plus-blocks per contest.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Double-doubles in loss

    Clingan amassed 18 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 122-111 loss to Cleveland.

    Clingan has been very inconsistent on the offensive end, but he's been an elite source of rebounds and blocks in recent games. Over his last five outings, Clingan has produced 10th-round value in nine-category formats in 26.5 minutes, averaging 9.0 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.8 blocks.

  • Jazz's Kyle Filipowski: Logs 13 points in loss

    Filipowski logged 13 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 140-103 loss to the Grizzlies.

    Although Filipowski has been effective amid John Collins's (ankle) absence, the former turned in a tepid line during a hapless performance by the team. The rookie is a critical part of Utah's future plans, so he'll get every opportunity to produce as the team languishes through the rest of the schedule.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Excels after Jackson's exit

    Huff contributed 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one block across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 140-103 win over the Jazz.

    Huff led a huge run in the third quarter after stepping in for Jaren Jackson. Huff posted 12 points, two rebounds and a block during the stanza and was a key factor in putting the game out of reach. He's buried on the depth chart, but the team's choice to use him immediately after Jackson's exit shows that he may have a leg up on Zach Edey in the rotation.

  • Zach Edey C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Posts 15 points in blowout

    Edey accumulated 15 points (5-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 140-103 victory over the Jazz.

    Although Jay Huff got the first crack at absorbing Jaren Jackson's missing production, Edey took over and contributed seven points in the fourth quarter. Although Edey has been relegated to backup duty, he has the ability to rack up rebounds quickly when given the opportunity.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Logs 21 minutes in loss

    Powell had four points (1-2 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 128-113 loss to New York.

    Powell delivered another underwhelming performance, scoring single digits for the sixth straight game. In fact, to this point, he has scored double-digits only once all season, averaging 2.2 points and 2.3 rebounds in 10.1 minutes per game.

  • Jalen Duren C | DET

    Pistons' Jalen Duren: Tallies seven assists in win

    Duren ended Tuesday's 122-96 win over San Antonio with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-5 FT), seven assists and four rebounds over 24 minutes.

    Duren tied his career-high mark in assists during his limited run in Tuesday's blowout win. The third-year big man has now dished out at least five dimes in 12 outings this season, including twice in his last five games. Duren's seven assists were also a game high, and he chipped in double-digit points for a fourth consecutive contest as well.

  • Chet Holmgren PF | OKC

    Thunder's Chet Holmgren: Good to go against Sacramento

    Holmgren (hip) is available and in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Kings.

    Holmgren has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday after missing the Thunder's previous contest due to a left hip strain. Holmgren is averaging 15.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 blocks in 28.0 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

  • Celtics' Xavier Tillman: Another absence coming

    Tillman (knee) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Suns.

    Tillman's absence streak will extend to four games Wednesday due to a left knee joint sprain. Tillman's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with San Antonio.

  • Al Horford C | GS

    Celtics' Al Horford: Off injury report for Wednesday

    Horford (toe) is off the Celtics' injury report for Wednesday's game against the Suns.

    Horford is slated to return to game action after missing Monday's win over the Kings due to a left big toe sprain. However, Monday's absence was likely just a day of rest during the second leg of a back-to-back set, as the veteran big man has yet to suit up in both halves of a back-to-back this season. Over his last five outings (all starts), Horford has averaged 10.0 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists across 31.0 minutes per game.
