Injury report

Milwaukee Bucks

  • Ryan RollinsDay to day· back Nov 13Report updated ·
    Report note

    Rollins (head) exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's 123-112 loss to the Lakers and did not return, finishing with eight points (3-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal across 24 minutes. Rollins bumped heads with Collin Sexton with 6:51 remaining in the contest, and both players exited to the locker room. Rollins' status will be worth monitoring ahead of Friday's game at Orlando. If he needs to miss time, AJ Green and Kasparas Jakucionis could see increased playing time.

  • Myles TurnerOut· back Nov 13Report updated ·
    Report note

    Turner has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers due to rest. Turner will miss his first game of the season after totaling only three points in 27 minutes during Tuesday's blowout loss in New York. In Turner's absence, Kel'el Ware and Jericho Sims are candidates for increased roles. Turner should return to action Friday in Orlando.

Cleveland Cavaliers

  • Sam MerrillOut· back Nov 16Report updated ·
    Report note

    Merrill (elbow) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks. Merrill has battled a lingering elbow issue since the preseason. He will now miss a third consecutive contest, with his next opportunity to suit up coming Friday in Miami. While Merrill is sidelined, Craig Porter, Meleek Thomas and Tyrese Proctor should see more minutes.
