76ers coach Nick Nurse said Bona (foot) will be re-evaluated in a couple days, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Bona has been recovering from a foot sprain he suffered during the offseason. According to Nurse, there's a chance he could be back for a portion of the preseason. Bona is currently penciled in as Joel Embiid's backup for the upcoming season.

Fall was diagnosed with a left hip strain Thursday and will miss at least two weeks, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

This is a tough blow for Fall, as he's already facing an uphill battle to make the final roster. A return Oct. 16 isn't out of the question based on this timetable.

Hartenstein dropped nearly 10 pounds ahead of the 2026-27 season, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Hartenstein has been a full go for several weeks after tweaking his ankle for Germany during the offseason. He's expected to play a similar role in 2026-27 and is fresh off a three-year, $75 million extension.

Conwell has made a strong early impression on teammate Klay Thompson during his first training camp with Miami, according to Heat reporter Brendan Tobin.

Thompson praised Conwell's conditioning, defense and left-handed jumper, noting that the rookie picked up full court defensively during practice and had previously beaten him in a shooting drill this summer. The No. 37 overall pick averaged 18.8 points while attempting 9.6 three-pointers per game during his final collegiate season at Louisville, and his combination of shooting and defensive effort could help him compete for a rotation role as a rookie. The hip issue that flared up during Summer League is seemingly behind him.

Smith will miss a couple weeks with a strained right calf, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

This is a tough blow for the point guard who was penciled in as the top backup behind Davion Mitchell. If he indeed misses a couple weeks, he could be back in time for their final preseason contest Oct. 16.

Davis is healthy and participating in training camp after dealing with injury issues during the 2025-26 campaign, according to Wizards reporter Greg Finberg.

Davis was spotted going through on-court work alongside Trae Young during Wednesday's practice, providing further confirmation that he's healthy entering his first full season with Washington. The veteran big man should have the opportunity to ramp up throughout camp and the preseason without injury-related limitations.

Young (quadriceps) has been cleared for training camp and was spotted participating in on-court work during Wednesday's practice, according to Wizards reporter Greg Finberg.

Young's 2025-26 campaign ended with him sidelined by a right quadriceps contusion and lower-back irritation after appearing in just five games for Washington following his midseason arrival. His participation during the second day of camp indicates he's moved past those issues and enters the preseason healthy.

Clayton (knee) has been a full go at training camp, according to Grizzlies reporter Matt Infield.

Clayton missed the entire Summer League due to a sprained right knee, but he made no mention of it during Media Day. Clayton is competing for a roster spot in Memphis and is looking to make an impact in the preseason.

Wells (toe) has been a full participant to begin training camp, Grizzlies president of basketball operations Zach Kleiman said, according to Memphis reporter Landon Speck.

Wells has been cleared for full basketball activities after undergoing toe surgery in March and is practicing without restrictions during camp. His availability should give him plenty of time to ramp up during the preseason while competing for a prominent role on the wing.

Pippen is a full participant to begin training camp, Grizzlies president of basketball operations Zach Kleiman said, according to Memphis reporter Landon Speck.

Pippen continues to go through camp without any health-related restrictions, clearing the way for him to compete normally throughout the preseason. The guard's full participation is an encouraging after he underwent a toe procedure back in March. As Memphis begins sorting out its backcourt rotation ahead of the regular season, Pippen's battle with Ty Jerome will be one to watch.
