7h agoHewitt (illness) was not listed on the Texans' injury report Wednesday.
Hewitt appears to be ready to go for Week 3 after he missed the team's 31-20 loss to the Colts on Sunday. The middle linebacker operated only as a special-teams option in Week 1 and he'll likely return to that role again versus Jacksonville this weekend.

7h agoRumph (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Chargers' practice Wednesday.
Rumph has been unable to play in either of the team's games to this point in 2023, but his ability to practice Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The 24-year-old will to progress past his hamstring injury with a full practice before the end of the week.

Austin Wells NYY CYankees' Austin Wells: Belts first big-league long ball
2h agoWells went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in a loss to the Blue Jays on Wednesday.
Wells accounted for New York's only extra-base hits in the loss, and his ninth-inning homer was the only thing that prevented the team from getting shut out. The long ball was the backstop's first in the big leagues, and this was the first time he's had more than one hit in a game. Wells has found the going tough at the plate in his first cup of coffee with the Yankees, slashing .163/.196/.326 with a 2:11 BB:K over 46 plate appearances thus far.

Michael King NYY RPYankees' Michael King: Racks up career-best 13 punchouts
2h agoKing (4-7) took the loss against Toronto on Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and no walks while striking out 13 batters over seven innings.
Though he was tagged with the loss due to a stagnant New York offense, King pitched arguably his best game as a major-leaguer, tallying a career-best strikeout total and racking up 16 whiffs over seven frames. The only run he allowed came when Bo Bichette reached on a two-out infield single to knock in Kevin Kiermaier in the third inning. King has been a strikeout machine over his past three outings, posting a 30:2 K:BB along with a 1.62 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over 16.2 innings. It would be an understatement to say that his late-season transition to the rotation has gone well, and King could be setting himself up for a full-time role as a starter in 2024 with his recent outstanding run.

Kevin Gausman TOR SPBlue Jays' Kevin Gausman: Fans 10 in victory
2h agoGausman (12-9) earned the win over the Yankees on Wednesday, allowing three hits and walking three batters over six scoreless innings. He struck out 10.
Gausman was dominant in the victory, racking up 17 swinging strikes en route to his ninth double-digit punchout effort of the campaign. The right-hander's sixth strikeout of the game gave him a new career-best single-season total, surpassing the mark he set with San Francisco in 2021. Gausman ranks second in the majors with 232 punchouts and has complemented that total with a 3.29 ERA and 1.20 WHIP over 178 innings.

Brandon Drury LAA 2BAngels' Brandon Drury: Knocks in five runs in victory
3h agoDrury went 3-for-5 with two home runs and five RBI in an 8-3 win against the Rays on Wednesday.
Drury was responsible for the majority of Los Angeles' run production in the victory, knocking a three-run homer in the second inning and a two-run shot in the sixth. It was the third multi-homer performance of the campaign for the veteran infielder, who is up to 23 long balls and 75 RBI over 115 contests on the season. Drury had been struggling coming into Wednesday, slashing .164/.271/.377 over his first 16 contests in September.

Aaron Civale TB SPRays' Aaron Civale: Lasts just three frames in loss
3h agoCivale (7-4) took the loss against the Angels on Wednesday, allowing six runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over three innings.
Civale fell behind 2-0 in the first inning and gave up four more runs in the second. Though he bounced back to strike out three batters in a scoreless third, the right-hander wasn't allowed to return for the fourth. This was Civale's shortest outing of the campaign and snapped his streak of seven straight starts of at least five frames. One positive takeaway is that Civale continued his recent strikeout binge -- he's compiled 44 punchouts over his past 28.1 frames covering six starts.
-
Reid Detmers LAA SPAngels' Reid Detmers: Logs seven punchouts in four frames
3h agoDetmers allowed an unearned run on three hits and two walks while striking out seven batters over four innings in a no-decision against Tampa Bay on Wednesday.
Detmers was scratched from his previous projected start Sunday due to an illness, but he recovered enough to take the mound Wednesday. The southpaw's short outing didn't appear to be due to any lingering effects, nor did he pitch poorly -- the only run Detmers allowed was largely due to an error behind him in the third frame. However, the hurler needed 96 pitches to complete his four innings, as the Rays fouled off a hefty 27 balls against him. That prevented Detmers from qualifying for the win, though he still made a strong impact in fantasy with his second straight seven-strikeout performance.

Chance Comanche POR PF
Kings' Chance Comanche: Joining Sacramento
8h agoComanche signed a training camp deal with the Kings on Wednesday, Frankie Cartoscelli of SactownSports.com reports.
Comanche spent most of the 2022-23 season with the Kings G-League affiliate in Stockton and averaged 13.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game before briefly joining the Trail Blazers during the final days of the campaign. With each of the three two-way slots filled for Sacramento, Comanche will most likely end up in the G League once again in 2023-24.

Buddy Hield IND SFPacers' Buddy Hield: Extension contracts stall
11h agoShams Charania of The Athletic reports that contract extensions between Hield and the Pacers have stalled, so Indiana has begun trade conversations.
Hield started 73 of 80 games for Indiana last season, averaging 16.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.2 steals in 31.0 minutes per game. He shot 42.5 percent from deep, the second-highest mark of his career. However, the Pacers added Bruce Brown, Jarace Walker and Obi Toppin to their wing group this offseason, and it appears Hield is the odd man out. Hield has one year remaining on the four-year, $94 million extension he signed with the Kings in 2019.

13h agoThe Clippers signed Moon to an Exhibit 10 contract Wednesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today Sports reports.

Aleksej Pokusevski OKC CThunder's Aleksej Pokusevski: Sustains right ankle sprain
15h agoPokusevski (arm) sustained a right ankle sprain during an offseason workout Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
Pokusevski suffered a small right humerus fracture at the beginning of June and was unable to play for the Serbian national team in the FIBA World Cup as a result. Although he was evidently cleared to resume working out, he's now dealing with an ankle issue that will force him to miss several weeks and could sideline him for the start of the regular season. Pokusevski has had a relatively consistent role over his first three seasons with the Thunder, averaging 8.0 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 21.7 minutes per game.
-
Jordan Hall NBADRAFT SFNets' Jordan Hall: Signs with Brooklyn
17h agoHall signed a contract with the Nets on Wednesday, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Hall appeared in nine matchups with the Spurs during the 2022-23 campaign and averaged 3.1 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 8.8 minutes per game. He'll likely spend most of this season with the G League's Long Island Nets.

Bryce Hamilton LAL SG
Bryce Hamilton: Waived by LA
2d agoHamilton was waived by the Lakers on Monday, Paul Garcia of The Spot Up Shot reports.
Hamilton inked an Exhibit 10 deal with Los Angeles on Sept. 7, but he was never expected to make the NBA roster. He figures to see plenty of opportunities this season with the Lakers' G League team, the South Bay Lakers.
-
Robin Lehner LV GGolden Knights' Robin Lehner: Not on training camp roster
11h agoLehner (hip) is not listed on the Golden Knights' training camp roster.
Lehner's absence from the camp roster doesn't bode well for his availability at the start of 2023-24. The 32-year-old goalie missed all of last season while recovering from hip surgery, and in his absence, Logan Thompson and Adin Hill emerged as viable goalies for the defending Stanley Cup champions. As such, Lehner will not be rushed back this year, and given the length of his recovery, it's fair to question if he'll ever get back into an NHL game.
-
Brock McGinn ANA LWDucks' Brock McGinn: Ready for training camp
11h agoMcGinn (upper body) will skate with Group 3 on the first day of on-ice practices at Ducks training camp Thursday.
McGinn ended last season on the shelf, missing the final four games of the campaign. He had 19 points in 75 games last year, and he figures to fill a bottom-six role for Anaheim in 2023-24.
-
Justin Danforth CLB RWBlue Jackets' Justin Danforth: Lifted from IR
11h agoDanforth (shoulder) was removed from injured reserve Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
Danforth was limited to three points in six games last season before undergoing shoulder surgery in late October. Now nearly 11 months removed from the procedure, he should be good to go for training camp. Danforth will compete for a bottom-six role, though the Blue Jackets may want younger players to seize those spots as they continue through a rebuild.

Avalanche's Calum Ritchie: Will miss start of season
11h agoRitchie (shoulder) will miss training camp and the start of the season, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports.
Ritchie underwent shoulder surgery following his season with OHL Oshawa. While no specific timeline has been established, his recovery will last into the season, making it unlikely Ritchie plays before November.
-
Chris Wagner COL RWAvalanche's Chris Wagner: Suffers ruptured Achilles
11h agoWagner suffered a ruptured Achilles prior to training camp, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Wagner signed a two-year deal with the Avalanche in July, but it could be a while before he suits up with the team. The 32-year-old was likely to be just a fourth-line option this season, but given the severity of his injury, it's likely he'll miss a majority of the campaign.
-
Jean-Luc Foudy COL C
Avalanche's Jean-Luc Foudy: Dealing with lower-body injury
11h agoFoudy has a lower-body injury and has not been cleared to participate at the start of training camp Thursday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Foudy had no points in nine games with the Avalanche last season, spending the bulk of the year with AHL Colorado. With the injury hampering him to begin the campaign, expect him to again start 2023-24 in the minors.
