  • Patrick Beverely stuffs stat sheet with 13/4/12
    Patrick Beverley posted a full line on Tuesday with 13 points (4-of-7 FGs), four rebounds, 12 assists, two steals, one block and one triple against Indiana in Game 5.

    Advice: Pat Bev is known for his defense, but he was able to step up on the offensive end in this one. He had 12 of his 13 points before halftime and switched things up after the break, dishing out 10 of his 12 assists in the third and fourth quarters. Beverley will do his best to keep this team afloat without Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo, but it is unlikely that he repeats this level of production. However, if Lillard isn’t back for Game 6, they may need him to. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:38 pm
     
  • Available to play
    Beverley (oblique) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 versus the Pacers, Jeremiah Johnson of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Advice: Beverley was previously carrying a probable tag, so the Bucks will be relieved to see him power through his minor setback. Beverley will continue to see an expanded role due to Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Damian Lillard (Achilles) being out. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:47 pm
     
  • Pops for nine points in loss
    Mills closed Monday's 102-88 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with nine points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and one assist in 22 minutes.

    Advice: Mills played a few extra minutes in the loss as the Heat fell to the Celtics in Game 4. Although they managed to win away from home in Game 2, there is a decent chance this series will come to an end Wednesday. Beyond this season, it's hard to see Mills having any sustainable fantasy value. Rotowire.com Monday, 11:43 pm
     
  • Good to go for Game 5
    Jackson (ankle) will play in Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers.

    Advice: Jackson has been dealing with a minor ankle issue leading up to Monday's matchup, but he won't be forced to miss any action. His role figures to be limited again with Jamal Murray (calf) also being upgraded to available. Rotowire.com Monday, 6:18 pm
     
  • Patrick Beverley (oblique) probable Tuesday
    Patrick Beverley (right oblique muscle strain) is listed as probable for the Bucks’ Tuesday game against the Pacers.

    Advice: Beverley will likely continue starting at point guard with Damian Lillard listed as doubtful for Game 5. He’s struggled to match his Game 1 production against Indiana. Rotoworld Monday, 3:58 pm
     
  • Dealing with oblique strain
    Beverley is probable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers due to a right oblique strain.

    Advice: Beverley has scored in double figures only once through the first four matchups of the opening-round series, averaging 7.5 points, 4.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals-plus-blocks in 33.5 minutes per game. The veteran played only 21 minutes during Sunday's Game 4 loss, so he may be limited even if he suits up Tuesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:37 pm
     
  • Craig Porter Jr. (ankle) out Tuesday vs. Magic
    Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle sprain) is listed as out for Tuesday’s Cavaliers-Magic matchup.

    Advice: Porter still hasn’t recovered from the ankle injury he suffered at the end of the regular season. He’s set to miss his fifth consecutive playoff game on Tuesday. Rotoworld Monday, 3:07 pm
     
  • Still out
    Porter (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Magic.

    Advice: Porter has yet to suit up during the postseason due to a left ankle sprain. Even when he's healthy, the undrafted rookie isn't guaranteed minutes. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:37 pm
     
  • Delon Wright (personal) available Monday
    Delon Wright (personal reasons) is available for Monday’s matchup with Miami.

    Advice: Wright sat out Game 3, but he’ll be back in action after just one game on the sidelines. Expect him to handle a typical workload in Game 4. Rotoworld Monday, 9:58 am
