Memphis, TN

Morant is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Magic due to soreness in his right thigh. It looks like Morant will be skipping the first leg of Memphis' upcoming Tuesday-Wednesday, back-to-back set, which will presumably result in another start for Tyus Jones and more usage for Desmond Bane and Dillon Brooks. Morant managers should check back closer to Tuesday's 8:00 p.m. ET tip for official word on his status.

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.

Brooks racked up 30 points (12-24 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 141-132 loss to the Clippers. For the first time in 2023 Brooks topped the 20-point and 30-point plateaus. Memphis sat Desmond Bane (foot), Jaren Jackson (calf) and Tyus Jones (foot) on the second night of a back-to-back, which allowed Brooks to take 24 shots, only trailing Ja Morant. The former second-round pick had 30 points, nine rebounds and six assists in his last three games combined, making Wednesday's performance even more impressive. With the Grizzlies nearly locked into the two seed, there may be more rest coming that could give Brooks opportunities like he had Wednesday.

Denver, CO

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.

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.

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.

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.

North Carolina State

Chapel Hill, NC

Junior guard Caleb Love, North Carolina's leading scorer this season, has decided to enter the transfer portal. Love, who averaged 16.7 points per game, helped lead the Tar Heels to a 20-13 (11-9 ACC) record as they failed to reach the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2010. UNC already has a possible lineup replacement, though, as Brown guard Paxson Wojcik announced his commitment shortly after Love's decision.

The Toronto Blue Jays and St. Louis Cardinals will begin the 2023 MLB season at Busch Stadium. This interleague affair features a pair of 2022 playoff teams. The visiting Blue Jays won 92 games a year ago, finished second in the tough American League East, and claimed a wild-card berth. However, they were swept in the best-of-three Wild Card Series by the Mariners. As for the Cardinals, they won 93 games and the National League Central title under first-year manager Oliver Marmol, but they were also swept in the first round. In their case, the eventual NL-champion Phillies did the damage.

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.

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.

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.

Cardinals manager Oli Marmol confirmed Wednesday that Walker will be in the Opening Day lineup Thursday against the Blue Jays, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports. Marmol's announcement comes as no surprise after the 20-year-old top prospect was informed Saturday he had made the 26-man major-league roster. Walker will start in one corner-outfield spot Thursday, with Lars Nootbaar covering the other. Tyler O'Neill or Dylan Carlson will patrol center field.
