San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox is listed as questionable for Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals against Minnesota due to right ankle soreness. Fox injured the ankle in Game 4 when Ayo Dosunmu landed on it, though he finished with 24 points in 37 minutes.

Wembanyama ejected in Game 4
11.5.26 San Antonio Spurs: Injuries & Suspensions
San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was ejected for the first time in his career after a flagrant foul 2 on Minnesota's Naz Reid during Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals. The elbow to Reid's jaw came early in the second quarter, leading to an automatic ejection in the Spurs' 114-109 loss. Coach Mitch Johnson criticized the lack of protection for Wembanyama against constant physical play.
Steve Kerr agrees to two-year deal with Warriors
10.5.26 Golden State Warriors
After three weeks of deliberation, Steve Kerr has signed a two-year contract to remain head coach of the Golden State Warriors, keeping him the NBA's highest-paid coach. Kerr, who has led the team to four championships since 2014, returns for his 13th season amid roster uncertainty and the twilight of the Steph Curry era. Despite speculation about his departure, Kerr and team leadership aligned on basketball philosophy and future direction.
Knicks dominate Sixers despite Embiid's return
9.5.26 Philadelphia 76-ers
Joel Embiid returned to the lineup with 18 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists, but the Philadelphia 76ers fell 108-94 to the New York Knicks, who now lead the Eastern Conference semifinal series 3-0. Despite missing OG Anunoby, New York's defense and bench outperformed Philadelphia, whose reserves managed just 11 points. Paul George scored 15 in the first quarter but went scoreless the rest of the way, while the Knicks capitalized on Embiid's limited mobility.
Anunoby day-to-day with hamstring strain
8.5.26 New York Knicks: Injuries
New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and is considered day-to-day. The injury, which occurred late in Game 2 against Philadelphia, is not believed to be serious, though Anunoby is listed as questionable for Game 3. He scored 24 points in the Knicks' 108-102 win that gave them a 2-0 series lead, continuing his strong playoff run where he has been the team's second-leading scorer behind Jalen Brunson.
Anunoby exits late with leg injury
7.5.26 New York Knicks: Injuries
OG Anunoby left the Knicks' 108-102 Game 2 win over the 76ers with an apparent leg injury in the final minutes after a dunk attempt. The team has not disclosed details, and coach Mike Brown deferred to a spokesman. Anunoby had 24 points and was a key contributor as New York took a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Any absence would be a major setback, as he has been the Knicks' second-leading scorer and most efficient shooter this postseason.
NBA grants award eligibility exceptions to Doncic, Cunningham
17.4.26
The NBA and NBPA agreed to waive the 65-game minimum for Luka Doncic and Cade Cunningham, allowing both to qualify for end-of-season awards under "extraordinary circumstances." Doncic missed games for the birth of his child, while Cunningham was sidelined by a collapsed lung. Meanwhile, Anthony Edwards was denied a similar appeal after playing 60 games, fueling debate around the league's 65-game rule despite support from Adam Silver.
