Daniel Gafford: Breaking News

Won't play Sunday

Gafford (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bulls Gafford will miss a fourth consecutive contest to end the season. The big man will finish the campaign with averages of 9.5 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 assists across 21.7 minutes per contest in 55 regular-season outings (44 starts). With Marvin Bagley (shoulder) and P.J. Washington (elbow) also ruled out, Moussa Cisse and Dwight Powell are expected to handle the center minutes.

Likely out versus Chicago

Gafford (rest) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Chicago. Gafford missed the last three games, so it's not surprising to see his name on the injury report for the season finale. With P.J. Washington (elbow) and Marvin Bagley (shoulder) also doubtful, Moussa Cisse (two-way) could see more action, potentially entering the starting lineup for the second time this season.

Ruled out for Friday

Gafford (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs. As expected after being listed as doubtful, Gafford will miss his third consecutive game due to a right shoulder impingement. With Gafford sidelined once again, Marvin Bagley is heavily favored to draw another start at center. Dwight Powell should also continue to see rotational minutes backing him up.
