Jokic (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pelicans. Jokic lands on the injury report for the first half of a back-to-back set. The MVP candidate has played both halves of the Nuggets' past two back-to-backs, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Denver give Jokic a night off to keep him fresh for the playoffs. If Jokic is sidelined, Zeke Nnaji and Thomas Bryant would be candidates for increased minutes, but Jamal Murray and Michael Porter would presumably be asked to handle the majority of the playmaking opportunities.

Milwaukee, WI

Ingles (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers. The Bucks have an upcoming back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Ingles take a seat for at least one of those contests, though he did play in both halves of Milwaukee's most recent back-to-back. If he sits, Pat Connaughton would be a candidate for an increased role.

Bucks' Joe Ingles: Iffy for Wednesday's contest

Durham, NC

Duke wing Dariq Whitehead declared for the 2023 NBA Draft on Wednesday after developing into a knockdown 3-point shooter for the Blue Devils during his freshman season. Whitehead was absent for the beginning of the campaign because of a foot fracture and missed time during the heart of ACC play because of a lower-leg injury. But, when healthy, Whitehead offered glimpses of what made him a five-star prospect in the Class of 2022.

Zegras (lower body) will travel with the Ducks to Seattle ahead of Thursday's contest versus the Kraken, per Lisa Dillman of The Orange County Register. There's no guarantee that Zegras will play Thursday, but at very least the possibility is still there. He left Monday's contest because of the injury. Zegras has 22 goals and 59 points in 74 outings this season.

Terry (personal) won't play Monday against Colorado, Lisa Dillman of The Orange County Register reports. Terry left Saturday's 6-3 loss to St. Louis after the second period due to a personal matter. He has generated 21 goals, 56 points and 174 shots on net in 66 contests this campaign. Frank Vatrano (personal) will return to the lineup Monday.

Minnesota State

Cincinnati, OH

Smith agreed to a one-year contract with Cincinnati on Monday, Peter Schrager of NFL Network reports. Smith appeared in eight games a season ago with Minnesota and finished with 25 catches for 182 yards and a pair of scores. He should have a chance to make an immediate impact with the Bengals if he can stay healthy, as he'll join the likes of Devin Asiasi, Tanner Hudson and Nick Bowers in the team's tight end corps, which no longer includes free-agent departure Hayden Hurst.

Florida State

Saint Louis, MO

DeJong (back) took some swings and fielded light grounders off a pitching machine in Florida on Wednesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports. DeJong is slowly ramping things back up after he had a setback with his back last week. He'll begin the season on the injured list and seems likely a good bet to be sidelined for a handful of weeks.

Baltimore, MD

Coulombe was acquired by the Orioles from the Twins on Monday for cash considerations, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports. Coulombe was going to come up short in his bid for a bullpen spot with the Twins, but he's been given a reprieve with the O's trading for him and promptly adding him to their relief corps. The veteran left-hander holds a 2.92 ERA over 41 appearances over the last three seasons.

Buffalo, NY

Rapp agreed Monday with Buffalo on a one-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Rapp is now in line to suit up for the Bills in 2023 following Monday's agreement. The 25-year-old has served as the Rams' starting strong safety since he was drafted as a second-round selection by Los Angeles in 2019, and he registered 92 tackles, six passes defensed and two interceptions across 16 contests last season. Although the Bills already have two prominent safety options in Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde (neck), Rapp is still more than likely to command a rotational role within the team's secondary.

Major League Baseball legend Alex Rodriguez and billionaire businessman Marc Lore completed a new $290 million payment towards their purchase of the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday, according to The Athletic. This was the second of three installments before they become majority owners, which is expected to happen in 2024. When...

It’s clear that the Indianapolis Colts are in need of a quarterback, and when Lamar Jackson announced on Monday that he had requested a trade from the Baltimore Ravens, the Colts were naturally among the teams suggested as potential destinations for Jackson. But even though Colts general manager Chris Ballard says the team will consider Read more...

San Diego, CA

Odor is expected to make San Diego's Opening Day roster, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports. The move has yet to be made official, and Odor isn't currently on the 40-man roster, but the veteran looks to have an inside track to a roster spot with Tim Lopes and Brandon Dixon moved to minor-league camp Sunday. Odor has made his case to break camp with the Padres with a standout spring, as he's slashing .316/.422/.474 with two homers, six RBI and two steals over 45 plate appearances. If he does indeed make the club, he'll likely work as a bench bat with the ability to play second base, third base and left field.

Major League Baseball umpires can oftentimes have a short fuse, but Monday's spring training game between the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays reached a new level of a player receiving their walking papers in quick fashion.

Misiewicz was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on Wednesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. The Cards need to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of phenom Jordan Walker. Misiewicz was acquired from the Royals back in February after being removed from their 40-man roster and will go through the waiver process again.

Iowa State

Chicago, IL

Wick cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Wick appeared on track to make the Opening Day roster, but the Cubs had other plans. Even so, he'll be a candidate to emerge with the big-league squad later on in the season after posting a 4.22 ERA and 1.69 WHIP with a 69:29 K:BB over 64 innings a season ago.

Cubs' Rowan Wick: Outighted to Triple-A

Adames went 2-for-3 with a double and a run in Tuesday's spring finale. Adames recorded just seven hits over his first 12 appearances of the spring -- which were sandwiched around a WBC stint with the Dominican Republic -- but he picked up three over the final two games he appeared in before the Brewers broke camp. Adames hit second or third in each spring game he appeared in, which all but locks him into a spot in the upper third of the order to begin the season.
