Cam Thomas, Brooklyn Nets
March 2025
Thomas is unlikely to return this season after suffering a strained left hamstring in Brooklyn’s loss to Chicago.
The Nets’ leading scorer had just recorded his first career double-double before the injury. With the regular season ending on April 13, the team ruled out his return for proper recovery. He averaged 24.0 points in 25 games but missed 37 games earlier due to a similar injury.
Fred VanVleet, Houston Rockets
March 2025
VanVleet made his return in Houston’s win over the Suns after missing over a month with an ankle injury.
His presence helps stabilize Houston’s backcourt as they push for a top seed in the West. Meanwhile, Amen Thompson remains out for another 1-2 weeks with a sprained ankle.
Bilal Coulibaly, Washington Wizards
March 2025
Coulibaly is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a hamstring injury, potentially sidelining him for the remainder of the season.
The 20-year-old guard suffered the injury against the Raptors, and with Washington’s season finale in 4.5 weeks, he may not return this season. He has averaged 12.3 points and 3.4 assists in his second year.
Josh Giddey, Chicago Bulls
March 2025
Giddey, who has been having a career-best season, is expected to miss the upcoming game after suffering an ankle injury.
The Bulls will rely more on Coby White, Kevin Huerter, and Nikola Vučević in Giddey’s absence, as he has been a key playmaker averaging 20.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 6.8 assists over his last 15 games.
