Ayo Dosunmu PG | CHI
Bulls' Ayo Dosunmu: Expected to play
Dosunmu (thumb) is probable for Friday's game against Cleveland.
Dosunmu, who has missed four of Chicago's last five games, was previously labeled as questionable for this contest. If he can get through warmups without any setbacks, he could be in line to reprise his sizable role in the rotation.

Tre Jones PG | CHI
Bulls' Tre Jones: Upgraded to probable
Jones (hamstring) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
Jones was previously considered questionable, but he's on track to suit up against Cleveland. Over his last three outings, he has produced averages of 7.7 points, 7.0 assists and 1.7 steals.

Bucks' Myles Turner: Tallies 21 points in defeat
Turner accumulated 21 points (6-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 31 minutes during Thursday's 111-105 loss to the Raptors.
Turner put on a solid display, scoring more than 20 points for the first time in nine games. His first season in Milwaukee hasn't gone as planned, but Turner is more than capable of stringing together a handful of excellent results and should continue to see increased usage until Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) returns to action.

Danny Wolf PF | BKN
Nets' Danny Wolf: Quiet outing against Heat
Wolf ended with nine points (4-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 20 minutes during Thursday's 106-95 loss to the Heat.
Wolf failed to reach double digits in scoring for the second straight game, slowing down after a few interesting performances in early December. The forward has been a frequent backup option in recent matchups, averaging 11.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 22.8 minutes per game over his last nine contests.

Trey Jemison C | NY
Knicks' Trey Jemison: Makes rare appearance Thursday
Jemison ended with five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block in 18 minutes during Thursday's 114-113 win over the Pacers.
Jemison took advantage of his few opportunities and recorded his most minutes this season. The Knicks were without Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) on Thursday, so it's unlikely Jemison, who's operating on a two-way deal, will take on a major role moving forward. However, he could be a reliable option for rebounds when included in the rotation.

Anthony Edwards SG | MIN
Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Goes through shootaround
Edwards (foot) participated in Friday's morning shootaround, Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Edwards remains questionable on the official injury report for Friday's game against the Thunder, but his participation in the morning bodes well for his chances of suiting up at night. He's been sidelined for three straight games, and the team could be mindful of his minutes if he gets the green light to suit up.

Moussa Diabate PF | CHA
Hornets' Moussa Diabate: Logs six rebounds Thursday
Diabate ended with five points (2-4 FG, 1-4 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 18 minutes during Thursday's 133-126 victory over the Hawks.
Diabate managed to lead his team in rebounds despite having limited playing time off the bench in the win. He has made a limited impact in recent action, but his involvement on the boards and occasional shooting numbers make him a decent second-unit option going forward.

Moe Wagner C | ORL
Magic's Moritz Wagner: Back to NBA
Orlando recalled Wagner (knee) from the G League's Osceola Magic on Thursday.
Wagner hasn't played since December 2024 due to an ACL injury, but he's now aiming to return at some point in the current season. While not guaranteed to get minutes in the near future, Wagner has rejoined the NBA squad as he continues to ramp up his workload.

Desmond Bane SG | ORL
Magic's Desmond Bane: Posts dud in loss
Bane produced six points (3-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds, eight assists and two blocks across 36 minutes during Thursday's 126-115 loss to the Nuggets.
For the sixth time this season, Bane was held to single-digit points. His usage rate fluctuates a lot in Orlando, but this can simply be chalked up to an off night during a tough matchup. For the season, Bane holds averages of 18.5 points, 4.7 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 0.7 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.

Jay Huff C | IND
Pacers' Jay Huff: Extends block streak on Thursday
Huff ended Thursday's 114-113 loss to the Knicks with six points (2-7 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 18 minutes.
Huff recorded two blocks in Thursday's loss to the Knicks and now has at least two swats in 21 straight games, including 13 consecutive games with two or more blocks. The 28-year-old center also pulled down double-digit boards for the first time since Nov. 9 against the Warriors. The Virginia product has started the past nine games for the Pacers, averaging 10.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.4 blocks, 2.0 threes and 1.9 assists in 24.6 minutes per game over that stretch.
