NBA Player News

White (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Wizards, Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com reports.

White has been given the green light to return from a one-game absence due to a right knee contusion, which will likely result in Payton Pritchard reverting to a bench role for Saturday's contest. In his last outing against the Spurs on Tuesday, White finished with 34 points, seven assists, five rebounds, one block and three three-pointers over 40 minutes.

Thompson (rest) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Thompson is expected to sit out the front end of this back-to-back set, though he'd likely return for Monday's game in New Orleans if he's ruled out Sunday. If the veteran wing is ultimately ruled out, Naji Marshall and Khris Middleton would be candidates to see a bump in minutes.

Martin (finger) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Martin was able to play through a left finger sprain in Friday's 138-105 loss to Cleveland, and it appears as though he'll continue to do so in Sunday's rematch. Since the All-Star break, Martin has averaged 5.8 points, 2.6 rebounds and 0.8 assists over 18.5 minutes per game.

Washington (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

Washington missed Friday's loss to the Cavaliers due to left ankle soreness, though there's a chance he will return for Sunday's rematch in Cleveland. If the 27-year-old forward remains out, Khris Middleton, Caleb Martin (finger) and Naji Marshall would be candidates for increased minutes.

Sochan (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Golden State.

Sochan was unable to play against the Pacers on Friday due to an illness. He has a chance to come back Sunday, though Sochan has played single-digit minutes in each of his last seven outings, so his return would not influence the Knicks' rotation all that much.

Hart (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Hart didn't play in Friday's win over the Pacers, and the questionable tag means the veteran forward could be in line to miss a third consecutive contest. Hart has been a regular starter for the Knicks when available, though. He's averaging 10.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.4 assists across 28.0 minutes per game in 11 starts since the All-Star break.

Towns (knees) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Towns was held out of Friday's win over Indiana due to bilateral knee soreness, though he's set to return to action Sunday. With the star big man returning to the lineup, Mitchell Robinson will likely move back to the second unit. Through seven March appearances, Towns has averaged 21.1 points, 13.0 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 31.0 minutes per contest.

Murray-Boyles (thumb) is out for Sunday's game against the Pistons.

Murray-Boyles will miss an eighth consecutive game due to a nagging thumb injury. His absence means Sandro Mamukelashvili will likely continue to see extended minutes as Jakob Poeltl's primary backup, while Jamison Battle and Jonathan Mogbo could see more playing time as well.

Wolf closed with 15 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists across 26 minutes during Saturday's 104-97 loss to Philadelphia.

Wolf tied a season high with 10 boards during Saturday's game and finished as the Nets' leading scorer en route to the first double-double of his NBA career. The rookie first-rounder has started three of Brooklyn's last four games, but he'll likely come off the bench against the Trail Blazers on Monday if Nic Claxton (rest) and Michael Porter (ankle) are cleared to return.

Bona amassed nine points (2-5 FG, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and one steal across 33 minutes during Saturday's 104-97 victory over the Nets.

Bona was cleared to return from a one-game absence due to a back injury and drew the start at center with Joel Embiid (oblique) and Andre Drummond (back) both sidelined. Bona was energetic on the defensive end of the floor and posted his ninth game of the season with at least three blocks. He has started each of the Sixers' last five games, and over that span he has averaged 7.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks over 26.5 minutes per game. Bona should remain in the Sixers' starting five for as long as Drummond and Embiid are sidelined.
