    • Karl-Anthony Towns hits four 3-pointers, scores 14
      Karl-Anthony Towns accumulated 14 points (4-of-7 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, three assists, and four 3-pointers in 33 minutes in Friday’s Game 3 loss to the Nuggets.

      Advice: The good news for Towns is that he shot 4-of-5 from beyond the arc. The bad is that he attempted seven shots overall, which is inexcusable for an offensive talent of his caliber. Friday’s game was the first in which KAT failed to reach double figures since Game 2 of Minnesota’s first-round sweep of the Suns. While the Timberwolves could get away with that against Phoenix, the reigning champs are different. Towns needs to be more aggressive in Game 4 on Sunday night, with the Timberwolves still holding a 2-1 series lead. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:43 pm
       
    • Leader from deep in Game 3 loss
      Towns posted 14 points (4-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 33 minutes in Friday's 117-90 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Towns didn't get much going offensively outside of connecting on a team-high mark from three, ending the contest as one of four players with a double-digit point total to go along with a handful of rebounds in a losing effort. Towns failed to reach the 15-point mark for just the second time of the postseason, having scored at least 20 points in each of the first two games against Denver. Towns will have to come out in Game 4 looking for more opportunities offensively and displaying more aggressiveness if Minnesota wants to take a commanding 3-1 series advantage.

    • Reggie Jackson (calf) available for Game 3 Friday
      Reggie Jackson (left calf contusion) is available for Friday’s game against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Jackson will play in Game 3 after injuring his calf during the fourth quarter of Game 2. He’ll take on his usual backup point guard responsibilities and is not worth the risk in DFS tournaments. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:51 pm
       
    • 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
      Jackson (ankle) is available for Friday's Game 3 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Jackson will be available to provide depth at point guard. Starter Jamal Murray (calf), who was also questionable, is going to play through it. Thus, Jackson figures to take on his usual depth role. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:38 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
       
    • Another absence coming
      Prosper (ankle) is out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Thunder.

      Advice: Prosper will miss his eighth straight contest Saturday due to a left ankle sprain. The rookie forward's absence won't impact Dallas' rotation. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:33 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
       
    • Another absence coming
      Porter (ankle) won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

      Advice: Porter will miss his 10th straight game Saturday due to a left ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up is Game 4 on Monday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:47 pm
