  • 96-78-6 4th Place
    • Suiting up against Philadelphia
      Brunson (knee) is available and in the starting lineup for Tuesday's Game 5 against the 76ers.

      Advice: Brunson has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite dealing with a right knee contusion. While the star guard is averaging 33.0 points per game across the four games of the series, he is shooting just 40.5 percent from the field and 25.9 percent from three.

    • Jalen Brunson (knee) available for Game 5 Tuesday
      According to TNT’s Jared Greenberg, Jalen Brunson (right knee contusion) is available for Tuesday’s game against the 76ers.

      Advice: As expected, Brunson is available as the Knicks look to close out a series on their home court for the first time since 1999. He’ll take on his usual workload despite dealing with multiple injuries. Rotoworld Tuesday, 3:38 pm
       
    • Fails to score in three minutes
      Robinson finished Monday's 102-88 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over three minutes.

      Advice: Robinson hit rock bottom in the loss, failing to score in only three minutes of playing time. It's a far cry from what he did during the regular season and highlights how unimpactful he can be. The Heat will now head back to Boston where they will attempt to extend the series beyond five games. Rotowire.com Monday, 11:45 pm
       
    • Leads bench with 16 points
      Marshall recorded 16 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 22 minutes during Monday's 97-89 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Marshall turned in an efficient shooting performance, scoring nine of his 16 points from beyond the arc. He had an inconsistent series at best, as he was held to five points in two of his team's four matchups on the way to being swept. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:47 pm
       
    • Anthony Davis finishes with 17/15/4 line in loss
      Anthony Davis recorded a double-double on Monday with 17 points (8-of-11 FGs), 15 rebounds, four assists and two blocks against Denver in Game 5.

      Advice: After a strong first half, AD exited the game briefly due to a left shoulder injury. While he was able to play through it, he really wasn’t the same player after that. 16 of his 17 points came before halftime, and if he stayed healthy, the result of this game may have been different. AD has been banged up all season, but he was still able to play a career-high 77 games. Davis has been knocked in fantasy hoops over the last few years by his lack of games played, but he may have flipped the script this season. He should go earlier in drafts next season, with managers hoping that he will be healthy once again. Rotoworld Monday, 9:46 pm
       
    • Battles through shoulder injury
      Davis suffered a left shoulder injury during the third quarter of Monday's Game 5 against the Nuggets but was able to return after visiting the locker room. He recorded 17 points (8-11 FG, 1-2 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists and two blocks across 40 minutes in the loss.

      Advice: Davis suffered the injury early in the third quarter on a play during which he took contact to his left shoulder, and though he was able to remain in the contest immediately afterward, he was barely able to use his left arm. The 31-year-old exited the game with four minutes left in the third quarter and went to the locker room, later returning for the final period. The injury seemed to impact Davis on the offensive end of the court, forcing LeBron James and Austin Reaves to shoulder heavy workloads down the stretch. Davis dominated on the glass throughout the opening-round series, averaging 15.6 boards over five games. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:44 pm
       
    • Naji Marshall chips in 16 points off bench
      Naji Marshall provided a boost off the bench with 16 points (5-of-9 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one block and four triples against Oklahoma City on Monday.

      Advice: It didn’t end up meaning much, but Marshall had a solid series and ended it with an excellent offensive game off the bench. This was a new playoff career-high for points for him, and he is now set to enter unrestricted free agency. He has been a solid role player for New Orleans, and he may end up fetching a decent-sized contract for a new team this summer. Regardless of where he ends up, Marshall is far more valuable as a role player than he is in fantasy basketball. Rotoworld Monday, 8:57 pm
       
    • Good to go for Game 5
      Davis (wrist) will play in Monday's Game 5 against the Nuggets, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

      Advice: Davis was added to the injury report as probable due to a left wrist sprain, and as anticipated, he'll be able to play through the injury Monday evening. LeBron James (ankle) has also been cleared to play, so the Lakers will have both top contributors available in a must-win game. Rotowire.com Monday, 6:23 pm
       
    • Jalen Brunson (knee) probable Tuesday vs 76ers
      Jalen Brunson (right knee contusion) is listed as questionable for the Knicks’ Tuesday meeting with the 76ers.

      Advice: Brunson popped up on the injury report with a knee injury after dropping 47 points his last time out. It doesn’t appear like he’s likely to miss any time from the minor ailment, though. Rotoworld Monday, 2:53 pm
