Mike Komisarek left Tuesday's game against the Wild in the first period.
It appears Komisarek sustained a lower-body injury. He had been nursing some type of lower-body injury all week and appears to have re-aggravated it. We will update you as to Komisarek's condition once more is known.
Gilbert Arenas (strained calf) was a surprise start on Tuesday -- he had 21 points, five rebounds, eight assists and three steals, but also set a franchise record with 12 turnovers.
Arenas came into this game averaging 3.7 turnovers, a number that will jump after this gaffe-filled performance. He was 7-of-20 from the field and didn't seem to have his usual explosion on a few drives toward the hoop, so keep an eye on his calf injury over the next few days.
Wizards guard Randy Foye was helped off the court on Tuesday after spraining his right ankle. X-rays were negative but he left the arena wearing a protective boot.
There is no timetable available yet, but we'll pass it along once we know more. In the meantime, Nick Young and DeShawn Stevenson will pick up extra minutes for the short-handed Wizards.
Kings rookie Tyreke Evans led his team over the Thunder on Tuesday, finishing with 20 points, eight rebounds, eight assists, one steal and five turnovers.
Evans made all 10 of his free throws, compensating for a rough 5-of-16 shooting night. The Kings have won three straight games since losing Kevin Martin (wrist) and this win moved them to .500 for the first time since December 4th, 2006, when they were 8-8.
Jason Thompson led the Kings to a win over Oklahoma City on Tuesday, notching 21 points (6-of-15 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), 14 rebounds, two steals, one block and five turnovers.
Thompson is very mobile for a 250-pound power forward, and when he avoids foul trouble he's a handful for any defender. Just keep him locked and loaded in your starting lineup.
Kevin Durant scored 37 points in a losing effort on Tuesday. He made 9-of-23 field goals but did most of his damage from the free throw line, where he was 18-of-18.
KD added five rebounds, two assists, three steals and four turnovers. He said recently that his focus on defense might be affecting his energy offensively, leading to his 42% shooting, but nobody should be fretting after a 37-point night.
Thunder swingman Thabo Sefolosha racked up six rebounds, six assists, three steals and four blocks on Tuesday, playing 35 minutes.
He scored just two points on 1-of-7 shooting, but his other stats in this game are certainly eye-catching. Just keep in mind that he hadn't had more than two assists or one steal in any game this season, despite averaging over 32 minutes.
