  • Available for Tuesday
    Murray (calf) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against Minnesota.

    Advice: Questionable tags have been par for the course for Murray in this series, but he continues to push through his calf strain. He's not expected to have any restrictions Tuesday evening. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago
     
  • Jamal Murray (calf) available for Game 5 Tuesday
    Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is available for Tuesday’s game against Minnesota.

    Advice: While considered questionable on the initial injury report, the expectation was that Murray would play. He’s officially available for Game 5, with the Nuggets having regained home-court advantage after winning Games 3 and 4 in Minneapolis. Denver will stick with its regular starting lineup; Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Michael Porter Jr., Aaron Gordon, and Nikola Jokic complete the quintet. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago
     
  • Likely out for remainder of series
    Anunoby (hamstring) is targeting a return for the Eastern Conference Finals, per Chris Haynes on TNT's NBA Tip-Off broadcast.

    Advice: Anunoby is already set to miss his third straight game Tuesday due to a left hamstring strain and now appears likely to miss the remainder of the series against Indiana. If the Knicks are able to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, Anunoby should reclaim his starting spot. However, Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa will likely continue to receive increased playing time in his absence. Rotowire.com Today, 5:34 pm
     
  • Tyrese Haliburton (back, ankle) available Tuesday
    Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms, sacral contusion, right ankle sprain) is available for Tuesday’s Game 5 against the Knicks.

    Advice: As expected, Haliburton is available for Game 5. The Pacers will stick with their preferred starting five, as Haliburton is joined by Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, Pascal Siakam, and Myles Turner. The series is tied at 2-all. Rotoworld Today, 4:40 pm
     
  • Good to go for Game 5
    Haliburton (back/ankle) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Knicks.

    Advice: Haliburton has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite dealing with lower back spasms, a sacral contusion, and a right ankle sprain. The star guard has been scorching the nets from the outside against New York, as he is converting 45.2 percent of his 10.5 three-point attempts per contest over the first four games of the series.

  • OG Anunoby (hamstring) progresses to on-court work
    Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said before Tuesday’s Game 5 against the Pacers that OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) has progressed to doing some on-court rehab work.

    Advice: Injured during the third quarter of the Knicks’ Game 2 victory, Anunoby has not played since. He was already ruled out for Game 5, and the progression to on-court work is progress. However, he still is not a full go, so it appears to be a long shot that Anunoby will be available for Game 6 on Thursday. Precious Achiuwa will remain in the starting lineup, with Miles McBride playing additional minutes off the bench. Rotoworld Today, 3:42 pm
     
  • Progressing in recovery
    Coach Tom Thibodeau said Tuesday that Anunoby (hamstring) is getting in some "light work on the court", Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Advice: Anunoby has already been ruled out for Game 5 on Tuesday, marking his third straight absence due to a left hamstring strain. While the 25-year-old forward is progressing in his recovery, his status for Game 6 on Friday is in doubt. Rotowire.com Today, 3:28 pm
     
  • Questionable for Wednesday
    LeVert (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.

    Advice: LeVert started in place of Donovan Mitchell (calf) on Monday night, posting a respectable stat line across 39 minutes, despite the loss. With the Cavaliers hoping to roar back from a 3-1 deficit, the questionable tag is likely just a precaution as LeVert deals with a lingering knee injury. Rotowire.com Today, 2:47 pm
     
  • Another absence coming
    Jerome (ankle) is out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Jerome hasn't played since Oct. 27 while recovering from right ankle surgery. There is no indication that Jerome is nearing a return to action. Rotowire.com Today, 2:40 pm
