    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) available Friday
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (left ankle sprain) is available for Friday’s Game 3 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope struggled in the first two games, both Denver losses, as he has not been at full strength health-wise. In addition to needing to knock down open shots, the Nuggets are asking KCP to take on the difficult task of defending Anthony Edwards. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:48 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Caldwell-Pope (abdomen) is good to go for Friday's Game 3 against Minnesota.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope walked away from Game 2 with a mild abdomen injury, but he'll power through it in Game 3 with no word of any restrictions. Jamal Murray (calf) and Reggie Jackson (calf) will also play through their questionable tags. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:38 pm
       
    • Dean Wade (knee) questionable Saturday vs. Celitcs
      Dean Wade (right knee sprain) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday’s matchup between the Cavaliers and Celtics.

      Advice: Wade hasn’t played since the regular season so it’s unlikely that he’ll play a significant role if he’s cleared to play. He could cut into some of Tristan Thompson’s reserve minutes if made active, though. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:07 pm
       
    • Iffy for Game 3
      Wade (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

      Advice: Wade hasn't played since March 8 due to a right knee sprain. If Wade is upgraded to available, it remains to be seen how he will be featured in Cleveland's playoff rotation. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:33 pm
       
    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) questionable
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (left ankle sprain) is listed as questionable for Thursday’s Nuggets-Timberwolves game.

      Advice: KCP hasn’t been a factor on offense in the second round and his status for Game 3 is up in the air. Justin Holiday has provided a spark off the bench lately and will be asked to continue stepping up if KCP is ruled out. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:21 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 3
      Caldwell-Pope is questionable for Friday's Game 3 matchup with Minnesota due to a right abdominal contusion.

      Advice: KCP must have got popped in the mid-section during Game 2, and now he's in danger of missing Game 3. We'll have a better idea of his status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if he is forced to the sidelines, Christian Braun, Justin Holiday and Peyton Watson would be asked to pick up the slack.

    • Drains three triples Wednesday
      Sheppard chipped in 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt) and one assist over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 130-121 loss to New York in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Sheppard continues to play meaningful minutes for the Pacers, connecting on three triples en route to 11 points. While the Pacers ended with six players logging double-digit scoring, it was still not enough to get over the hump in front of a vocal New York crowd. Sheppard should continue to serve as a three-point threat off the bench. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:40 pm
       
    • Suffers torn Achilles
      Antetokounmpo recently sustained a torn Achilles' tendon and is set to undergo surgery in the near future, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has a long road ahead of him, with the recovery timeline from Achilles surgery for basketball players typically ranging from 9-to-12 months before a return to game action. His upcoming Achilles procedure will prevent him from competing alongside younger brother Giannis with the Greek national team in July in the pre-Olympic qualifying tournament, and he'll likely be in line to miss most, if not all, of the 2024-25 NBA season. The 31-year-old Antetokounmpo, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, averaged 4.6 minutes per game over 34 appearances in 2023-24. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:23 pm
       
    • Shams: Thanasis Antetokounmpo has torn Achilles
      Thanasis Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery, which means that he will be sidelined for a while. A specific timeline isn’t clear at this point, but he will likely miss time at the beginning of next season. However, that won’t impact fantasy basketball whatsoever. Rotoworld Wednesday, 3:15 pm
