Ben Wallace - F/C - Pistons
Ben Wallace remains away from the Pistons as he attends his oldest brother's funeral.
The funeral for Wallace's brother is Saturday, meaning the earliest Big Ben will be back with the team is Sunday. He may get back in the starting five over Chris Wilcox, but Greg Monroe's monster minutes are here to stay. Mar. 4 - 5:02 p.m. ET

Channing Frye - F/C - Suns
Channing Frye (eye) is a full go for Friday night's game against the Bucks, as expected.
Frye may be sporting a little bruise on his eye, but he's ready to go. Ignore his bad outing from last game and get the sharpshooter going. Mar. 4 - 5:00 p.m. ET

Mickael Pietrus - G/F - Suns
Mickael Pietrus will start in place of Vince Carter (head) Friday night.
Coach Alvin Gentry wisely wants to keep Jared Dudley in the bench role he has been excelling in. We'd give a slight edge to Dudley in terms of a pickup as the better player, but the minutes will depend on game flow and performance. Mar. 4 - 4:59 p.m. ET

Kevin Durant - F - Thunder
Kevin Durant (ankle) will play vs. the Hawks on Friday after all, despite being listed as doubtful on Thursday.
KD made it through shootaround and pregame warmups without incident -- he's wearing an ankle brace but the league's leading scorer should be fine. He and the entire Thunder offense should also benefit from the absence of lengthy Hawks forward Josh Smith. Mar. 4 - 6:36 p.m. ET

Baron Davis - G - Cavaliers
Baron Davis will play 20 or 25 minutes in his Cavaliers' debut on Friday.
Davis' knee is finally healthy enough for him to suit up, and he's motivated to silence a chorus of doubters as Cleveland fights their way toward mediocrity. He is expected to start at PG eventually, making him worth a stash at the very least. Mar. 4 - 6:34 p.m. ET

David West - F - Hornets
David West left Friday's game with a left leg injury during the first quarter, and is questionable to return.
It appears that he may have landed on somebody's foot, but it really wasn't clear from the replays what exactly happened. Should the injury be serious, then Carl Landry would be worth a long look, even if his numbers haven't been great this season. Mar. 4 - 8:37 p.m. ET

Tony Parker - G - Spurs
Tony Parker (calf) will return to action and start on Friday against the Heat.
This is last-second news and owners need to move quickly to get Parker into their lineups, and subsequently get George Hill out in most cases. Hill could still see extra minutes if Pop goes easy on Parker, but one also has to think he wouldn't jeopardize Parker's health by playing him too soon. Mar. 4 - 8:30 p.m. ET
