NBA Player News

Miller (groin) is available for Wednesday's regular-season opener in Toronto.

Miller made some noise in December last season, averaging 16.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.6 triples and 0.9 blocks per contest on 58/41/67 shooting splits through the final seven games of the year. It'll be interesting to see what his role looks like in the rotation while Nic Claxton (hamstring) is out.

Okoro (knee) is available for Wednesday's season opener against the Raptors.

The Bulls are giving Okoro the green light to play through a knee issue and make his season debut. With a couple of players sidelined for Opening Night, Chicago's rotation, particularly in the second unit, will be one for fantasy managers to monitor.

Collins (quadriceps) is available for Wednesday's game against Toronto.

As expected, Collins will ditch his probable tag for Wednesday's regular-season opener after sitting out the team's entire preseason schedule. The big man figures to operate as Jalen Smith's primary backup until Nic Claxton (hamstring) returns to the lineup.

Awaka (knee) is available to play Wednesday against the Raptors.

Awaka was listed as probable, and now we have official confirmation that he'll be out there. With Nic Claxton (hamstring) out to begin the year, Awaka will have a chance to get into the rotation for Chicago.

Ament (ankle) is available for Wednesday's season opener against the Wizards.

Ament sustained a left ankle sprain in a preseason game two weeks ago, but he's recovered in time for Opening Night. Although the rookie first-rounder is a big part of the rebuilding Bucks' long-term plans, Ament is unlikely to play meaningful minutes in the early stages of 2026-27 while Milwaukee is healthy.

Goldin (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Goldin will shed his questionable tag and suit up for Miami's regular-season opener. However, the two-way player isn't guaranteed to see the floor.

Merrill (elbow) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's regular-season opener in Philadelphia.

Merrill skipped Cleveland's preseason finale due to some soreness in his shooting elbow, but he's been fully cleared for Opening Night. Merrill will be battling Jaylon Tyson and Mario Hezonja for reserve minutes on the wings this season.

Diop (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the 76ers.

Diop will be held out of Thursday's regular-season opener due to left knee injury management. His next chance to play will come Saturday against the Nets.

Allen (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the 76ers.

Allen is in danger of missing the Cavaliers' first game of the 2026-27 campaign. If Allen can't suit up, Evan Mobley would presumably slide to the five, with Jaylon Tyson the favorite to move into the starting lineup.

Fall (quadriceps) is out for Thursday's game against Cleveland.

Fall remains sidelined with a left quadriceps strain. Once cleared to make his season debut, the two-way player could see most of his action come with the G League's Delaware Blue Coats.
