  • Upgraded to questionable
    Wood (knee) has been upgraded to questionable for Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs against Denver, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Wood has been sidelined since Feb. 14, but he's been trending towards a return for a while. It sounds like if he makes it through the shootaround without any setbacks, he could get the green light to return with Los Angeles' season on the line. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:17 pm
     
  • Christian Wood (knee) questionable for Game 4
    Christian Wood (left knee surgery) is listed as questionable to play in Game 4 against the Nuggets on Saturday.

    Advice: Wood has been sidelined for over a month and initially was targeting a return in Game 3. He could end up making his return on Saturday, though he will only see a limited role off the bench. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:17 pm
     
  • Craig Porter Jr. (ankle) out Saturday vs. Magic
    Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle sprain) is listed as out for Saturday’s Cavaliers-Magic matchup.

    Advice: Porter didn’t play in Games 1, 2, or 3 and is unlikely to be a significant part of the rotation once he’s healthy. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:37 pm
     
  • Kevin Love (arm) probable Saturday vs. Celtics
    Kevin Love (left upper arm contusion) is probable for Saturday’s Heat-Celtics game.

    Advice: Love logged just six minutes in Miami’s Game 2 win and appears poised to continue coming off the bench moving forward. He was held scoreless in his last outing. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:26 pm
     
  • Iffy for Game 3
    Wright is questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics due to personal reasons.

    Advice: Wright starred off the bench during the Game 1 loss and posted 17 points, three assists and two steals in 26 minutes. However, he finished the Game 2 win with just five points and four rebounds in 20 minutes. His potential loss could be costly to a backcourt already playing without Terry Rozier (neck) and Josh Richardson (shoulder). Jimmy Butler (knee) also remains out.

  • Good to go Saturday
    Nance (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's Game 3 against the Thunder.

    Advice: Nance was held to just 14 minutes of action in Game 2 due to an apparent right ankle injury. However, Nance should be available and serve as one of New Orleans' primary frontcourt options off the bench in Game 3. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:22 pm
     
  • Reggie Jackson (ankle) questionable Saturday
    Reggie Jackson (left ankle) is listed as questionable for the Nuggets’ Saturday matchup with the Lakers.

    Advice: Jackson is still hobbled after tweaking his ankle on Thursday and his availability for Saturday is up in the air. His absence isn’t likely to affect the rotation much. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:41 pm
     
  • Another absence coming
    Porter (ankle) won't play in Saturday's Game 4 against the Magic.

    Advice: Porter will miss his fourth straight contest to start the playoffs Saturday due to a left ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up is Game 5 on Tuesday against Orlando. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:33 pm
     
  • Questionable for Saturday
    Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's Game 4 against the Lakers, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Advice: Jackson left the Nuggets' Game 3 win Thursday in the third quarter and was unable to return, finishing with five points and an assist in seven minutes. Coach Michael Malone said Friday that Jackson has a sprained left ankle and is wearing a preventative boot. With the Nuggets leading the series 3-0, the team will likely be cautious with the 34-year-old. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:01 pm
