Notable Injuries

Denver Nuggets

All eyes are on the Denver Nuggets tonight, as Nikola Jokic is once again questionable with an illness. Head coach Mike Malone described him as "very questionable," so look for Mason Plumlee to once again see big minutes. Danilo Gallinari also looks probable after missing Wednesday's game.

Dallas Mavericks

Nerlens Noel will not play tonight, so look for Dwight Powell and Salah Mejri to pick up some minutes. However, the Dallas Mavericks will get a return from J.J Barea tonight, so that could take away some minutes from Yogi Ferrell.

Charlotte Hornets

Nicolas Batum is probable according to the Charlotte Hornets' official Twitter feed, but they will be without Johnny O'Bryant III, who has been eating up minutes with the injury to Frank Kaminsky. This should once again force Cody Zeller to play huge minutes after playing 42 against the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Houston Rockets

It looks like both Ryan Anderson and Nene Hilario will be available for the Houston Rockets. Anderson missed Wednesday with back spasms, but he's listed as probable.

Dwyane Wade, Chicago Bulls

Dwyane Wade has missed two games in a row for the Chicago Bulls with a thigh injury, but he will be back in action against Houston.

Brook Lopez, Brooklyn Nets

Brook Lopez will sit out Friday night with an ankle injury, which opens up a lot of playing time in the Brooklyn Nets frontcourt. Quincy Acy, Justin Hamilton and Trevor Booker are all candidates to see more minutes.

Nikola Vucevic, Orlando Magic

Nikola Vucevic is a game-time decision after doing some individual work at shootaround. If he is out again, Bismack Biyombo and Aaron Gordon gain some nice appeal.

DeMarre Carroll, Toronto Raptors

DeMarre Carroll had to miss Wednesday's game, but he went through practice on Thursday and it looks like he will play on Friday.

Lesser Injuries

Shaun Livingston, Golden State Warriors

Shaun Livingston is getting Friday night to rest, which could help both Ian Clark or Patrick McCaw see a good chunk of minutes.

Mirza Teletovic, Milwaukee Bucks

Mirza Teletovic hurt his hamstring in practice on Thursday and it's unclear how serious the injury is. If he sits out, we could see the Milwaukee Bucks debut of Terrence Jones.

Brandon Rush, Minnesota Timberwolves

Brandon Rush is expected to be back tonight, so Shabazz Muhammad and Lance Stephenson will lose out on some minutes.
