Austin Rivers Not Playing Against Timberwolves

New York Knicks guard Austin Rivers (illness) is sitting out Sunday's game against Minnesota.

Minnesota Twins catcher Mitch Garver said he realized just how much his swing was affected by injury last season.

However, the 30-year-old noted that he compensated for his […]

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and forward Kyle Kuzma (back) are probable for Saturday's game against the Heat. Forward Markieff Morris (ankle) is also probable.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder will be out on Saturday against the Heat.
