More than 70 NBA players carry injury designations for tonight's games
From Tyrese Haliburton to Anthony Edwards, a staggering number of players are dealing with injuries less than two weeks into the season.
As of Wednesday, October 28, more than 70 NBA players are expected to be dealing with injuries or illnesses for tonight's games. The NBA's injury report lists 108 players in total, with 79 of them carrying a designation due to their injury or illness. This includes players who are day-to-day, as well as those who could be sidelined for weeks or even months.
Several star players are already sidelined, including Jalen Williams with a left ankle fracture, Chet Holmgren with right knee patellar tendinitis, and Kawhi Leonard with left knee swelling. The early-season injuries have raised concerns about how much worse the situation could become as the season progresses, potentially overshadowing other storylines such as the Timberwolves' emergence or the Thunder's potential run to the Finals.
