The league had no games last night and none tonight, with the 2026-27 season not yet underway. Jayson Tatum, Tyrese Haliburton and Jalen Brunson were all cleared off the injury report as training camps open. Roster moves piled up in the two-way market, headlined by the Clippers waiving Johni Broome and the Pelicans signing Julian Reese.

The injury wire

Three franchise cornerstones open training camp fully cleared. Jayson Tatum, who had been listed Day-To-Day, is cleared for the Celtics. Tyrese Haliburton, also previously Day-To-Day, is cleared for the Pacers. Jalen Brunson, who carried the same Day-To-Day tag, is cleared for the Knicks. All three shed their questionable status as camps open across the league, with no new limitations attached to any of them. No other injury status changes were logged around the league today, and camp remains the focus with the 2026-27 season not yet underway.
