  • Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Dominant off bench Wednesday

    Robinson finished with 25 points (9-19 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds and six assists over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 118-105 victory over the 76ers.

    Robinson shifted to the bench Wednesday due to the return of Jakob Poeltl. That didn't limit Robinson's impact on the floor, as he played more minutes than Poeltl (17) while finishing second on the team in both rebounding and points. Robinson has registered a double-double in two consecutive games and will look to extend that streak to three against the Pacers on Friday.

  • Rudy Gobert C | MIN

    Timberwolves' Rudy Gobert: Available vs. Denver

    Gobert (back) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.

    Gobert is coming off a 16-point performance in the blowout win against the Spurs and will be back on the floor Wednesday in Denver. The veteran big man has seen his numbers dip this season, averaging 11.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.5 blocks per game while shooting 65.8 percent from the field.

  • Suns' Mason Plumlee: Ejected against Houston

    Plumlee has been ejected from Wednesday's game against the Rockets after an on-court altercation with Steven Adams, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Plumlee and Adams got into a physical altercation during Wednesday's matchup in Houston, which resulted in both players being ejected. The veteran big man logged 13 minutes for Phoenix before being sent to the locker room, finishing with four points and six rebounds.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Officially available

    Jokic (elbow/ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

    Jokic is playing through multiple injuries, but he's been deemed available Wednesday. The 29-year-old averaged 26.4 points, 16.2 rebounds and 10.8 assists across his last five games.

  • Steven Adams C | HOU

    Rockets' Steven Adams: Ejected Wednesday

    Adams has been ejected from Wednesday's game against the Suns after getting into a physical altercation with Mason Plumlee, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Adams and Plumlee locked arms after a missed shot and did not separate, resulting in a shove by Plumlee before Adams dragged them both to the floor. Adams logged one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, and one assist in 11 minutes before the ejection. Look for Jock Landale and Jeff Green to see more minutes behind Alperen Sengun in the second half. Adams should be back in action Friday against Dallas.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Cleared to return Wednesday

    Williams (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

    A left knee sprain caused Williams to miss Portland's last 10 games, but the 2018 first-round pick has progressed enough in his recovery to return to the floor Wednesday. He's appeared in just 20 games this season, averaging 5.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.7 blocks over 17.6 minutes per contest.

  • Bol Bol C | PHO

    Suns' Bol Bol: Coming off bench

    Bol is not part of the Suns' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

    Bol's streak of eight consecutive starts comes to a close Wednesday, as Phoenix opted to start Royce O'Neale in Bol's place. The 25-year-old averaged just 13.3 minutes during his last four games. Bol should still see a decent run off the bench.

  • Kings' Domantas Sabonis: Questionable for Thursday

    Sabonis (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors.

    Sabonis has missed the last five games for the Kings due to a hamstring injury and may miss another game Thursday in San Francisco. If the star big man can't play against Golden State, Sacramento will likely continue to turn to Jonas Valanciunas to pick up the slack in the frontcourt.

  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Not starting vs. Utah

    Huff is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

    Huff will return to his regular role off the bench due to the return of Zach Edey (ankle). Huff is averaging 7.0 points and 2.0 rebounds per game when coming off the bench this season.

  • Suns' Mason Plumlee: Inserted into starting lineup

    Plumlee is in Phoenix's starting lineup against Houston on Wednesday.

    Plumlee will make his 19th start of the season Wednesday (and his first since Jan. 18) due to the absence of Nick Richards (ankle). Plumlee has scored in double digits over his last four games, and over that span he has shot 76.9 percent from the field and averaged 13.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 24.5 minutes.
