NBA Player News

Coulibaly (illness) is questionable for Wednesday against the Hawks.

Coulibaly was a late addition to the injury report after waking up under the weather. If the Wizards end up holding Coulibaly out, the team could turn more to Khris Middleton and/or Will Riley.

Aldama (knee) was spotted at Wednesday's morning shootaround, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Aldama, who is listed as questionable, could potentially make his season debut against the Spurs. Aldama was spotted getting up some shots alongside Cooper Flagg and appeared to be in good spirits. He could face restrictions in his first game back, however.

The Warriors have stopped issuing salary payments to Porzingis, who remains away from the team and is considering retirement, Anthony Slater and Shams Charania of ESPN reported Wednesday.

Porzingis has not returned to the Warriors' facility since leaving in October, and his absence is no longer considered excused by the organization. Golden State continues to explore trading the 31-year-old center's contract ahead of the Feb. 11 deadline rather than voiding his deal. With Porzingis reportedly leaning toward retirement and no timetable for his return, he remains an extremely risky fantasy investment with little reason to expect meaningful production this season.

Memphis recalled Lopez from the G League's Memphis Hustle on Tuesday.

Lopez has rejoined the parent club ahead of Wednesday's game against the Pacers following his short assignment to the G League affiliate. Lopez was inactive for a few days earlier in the season due to a knee bruise and has since logged seven minutes of play for the Grizzlies, racking up two points and two rebounds over that span. While his contribution could be useful in the Memphis rotation, he's likely to retain limited involvement off the bench for now.

Gardner (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Gardner is in danger of missing his fourth contest of the 2026-27 campaign. However, he has logged three minutes or less in his four regular-season appearances, so his absence wouldn't have much of an effect on the rotation.

Antetokounmpo is probable to play Wednesday against the Clippers due to a sprained right wrist.

Antetokounmpo is dealing with a sprained wrist on his shooting hand, but it doesn't appear he has any intention of sitting out Wednesday's game. Check back closer to Wednesday's tipoff for official confirmation on his status.

Hachimura (quadriceps) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against Miami.

Hachimura didn't suit up for Monday's 125-118 loss to Toronto, the second of a back-to-back for the Clippers. He will return for the meeting with the Heat, meaning Gradey Dick will head back to the bench.

Jones (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Heat, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Jones will be back in action Wednesday following a one-game stint on the sidelines, which should result in Kobe Sanders returning to the second unit. Jones is averaging 11.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.2 triples and 1.2 steals per game this season.

Cardwell (calf) is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's meeting with the Lakers.

It appears Cardwell will be making his regular-season debut Wednesday evening, which could translate to fewer minutes for Precious Achiuwa. Cardwell showed last season he's capable of racking up the defensive stats when given the minutes, but his upside will be muted as long as Domantas Sabonis is healthy.

Achiuwa (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

Achiuwa is currently bothered by left ankle soreness, though it doesn't appear as if it will be enough to keep him off the floor against Los Angeles. The 27-year-old has played well in his seven regular-season appearances in 2026-27, averaging 11.6 points and 1.9 steals, both career highs, along with 6.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 blocks over 28.6 minutes per contest.
