There are various players absent and while some may make a comeback tonight, there are others who are still out. This injury report lists all the players who will be available for tonight’s games and more. So let’s get right into it.

Orlando Magic vs Charlotte Hornets

The Orlando Magic are currently sitting at the eight seed but are trying to push themselves to the seventh seed and knock off the Atlanta Hawks. They are currently on a two-game win streak and are trying to hang on despite losing essential pieces such as Jalen Suggs and Moritz Wagner to injuries. Whereas the Hornets are missing a lot of key players from their rotation, who significantly contribute to the scoring column such as Brandon Miller and Tre Mann. They lost back-to-back games against the Thunder and the Heat and at this point of the season, they will not be participating even in the play-in tournament, given that they are 18-53 for the season.

It is a great opportunity for the Magic to pick up a win on the road but the Hornets have beaten some strong teams at times.

San Antonio Spurs vs Detroit Pistons

After Wemby and Fox’s injury, the Spurs do not have much to play for this season. The Spurs are currently sitting at the 13th spot in the West and this seasons has not gone the way they had expected it to go originally. Injuries have derailed the Spurs and that continues to be the story. However, they’ve won the last three games against the Knicks, 76ers, and the Raptors and are battling to finish a little higher in the rankings than they currently are.

The Pistons are currently in a great spot in the East as they sit at 40-32 and could still give the Bucks a run for their money. This season will be the first time we’ll see the Pistons in the playoffs since the 2018-19 season and they could certainly make some noise with Cade Cunningham leading the way.

San Antonio Spurs	Current Status

Stephon Castle	Questionable

Dallas Mavericks vs New York Knicks

The Mavericks picked up a win last night against the Brooklyn Nets after Anthony Davis made his return from the injury that he had suffered in his debut game for the Mavs. The Mavs are currently sitting at the 11th spot in the West and are currently tied with the Phoenix Suns with a 35-37 record. Even though most of their players are out with injuries, they could at least try to get themselves in the first round of the playoffs.

The New York Knicks are the 3rd seed in the East and after their star Jalen Brunson went down with an injury, they are now in danger to lose their seed to the Indiana Pacers. The Knicks are 4-6 in their last 10 games and they desperately need a win against the Mavs to keep themselves right where they are.

Dallas Mavericks	Current Status
Anthony Davis	Out
Dante Exum	Out

Golden State Warriors vs Miami Heat

The Warriors have been on a role, ever since Jimmy Butler was traded to Dubs. However, their superstar Stephen Curry is still battling a left pelvic contusion. He is listed as questionable for tonight’s game against the Heat and it is also the first time that Butler will play against the Heat after getting traded away from the team.

The Miami Heat have been struggling to win games despite a really good stretch of performances from Andrew Wiggins. They are currently sitting at the 10th spot in the East and will most likely play in the Play-In Tournament. After Butler’s recent comments on the Heat culture, we expect Miami to put on a show, even though the Warriors are the favorite to win the matchup.

Golden State Warriors	Current Status
Stephen Curry	Questionable
Gary Payton II	Available

Miami Heat	Current Status

Atlanta Hawks vs Houton Rockets

The Hawks are currently in 7th in the East and are a lock to compete in the play-in tournament. They are few games in front of the Orlando Magic and riddled with a lot of injuries. Meanwhile, the Rockets are currently battling for the second seed in the West and are 9-1 in their last 10 games. The Rockets definitely have the upper hand in the contest and should be able to put the Hawks away to get back in the winning column after losing against Denver the previous game.

Atlanta Hawks	Current Status
Kobe Bufkin	Out
Clint Capela	Out
Jalen Johnson	Out
Larry Nance Jr.	Out
Daeqwon Plowden	Out
Jacob Toppin	Out
Keaton Wallace	Out

Memphis Grizzlies vs Utah Jazz

The Grizzlies are currently playing without Ja Morant and are still currently sitting in the 5th spot in the West. Meanwhile the Jazz are the at bottom of the Western Conference and having only won 15 games this season. Even with the Grizzlies down with injuries, they should be able to come up with a win.

Memphis Grizzlies	Game Status
Marvin Bagley III	Out
Brandon Clarke	Out
GG Jackson	Out

Cleveland Cavaliers vs Portland Trail Blazers

The Cleveland Cavaliers are the 2nd best team in the NBA this season with a record of 57-14. They are the number one seed in the east but are 6-4 in their last 10 games. It should be an easy win over the Portland Trail Blazers who are currently sitting at 12th in the West.

Cleveland Cavaliers	Current Status
Emoni Bates	Out
Donovan Mitchell	Out
Nae’Qwan Tomlin	Out
Luke Travers	Out
Jaylon Tyson	Out

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Sacramento Kings

It is clear that the OKC Thunder are the team to beat in the West as they are above and beyond anybody’s reach in the western conference. The have a great chance to reach 60 wins tonight and they will be taking on the Kings team who are currently 9th in the western conference. After the Kings’ outstanding season a couple of years ago, they have been mightily struggling to win games, and that is one of the main reasons why De’Aaron Fox left the team to join the Spurs.

Oklahoma City Thunder	Current Status
Ousmane Dieng	Out
Alex Ducas	Out
Isaiah Hartenstein	Available
Chet Holmgren	Questionable
Ajay Mitchell	Out
Nikola Topic	Out
Jalen Williams	Questionable
