    • Deemed questionable for Game 4
      Kleber (shoulder) is questionable for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

      Advice: Kleber has been sidelined since May 3 due to an AC joint separation, but he's closing in on a return to action. He participated in Monday's practice session and will be in the mix to return to game action Tuesday, although the Mavericks will likely monitor his status ahead of tipoff before officially determining his availability. Even if Kleber isn't cleared for Tuesday's matchup, it wouldn't be surprising to see him return later in the Western Conference Finals, if necessary, or for a potential run in the NBA Finals.

    • Jalen Smith (illness) questionable Monday
      Jalen Smith (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday’s Game 4 matchup between the Pacers and Celtics.

      Advice: Rick Carlisle opted not to play Smith in Game 3 so it’s unlikely that he’ll see much time in Game 4. The reserve big man has logged just eight minutes in the Eastern Conference Finals. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:00 pm
       
    • Remains out for Game 4
      Prosper (ankle) will not play in Tuesday's Game 4 against Minnesota, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: This will be the 15th straight game on the shelf for Prosper. He's yet to be cleared to practice and remains without a timetable for a return. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:00 am
       
    • Ramps up activity
      Kleber (shoulder) participated in Monday's practice, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Kleber appears to be progressing towards an eventual return after being diagnosed with a AC joint separation earlier this month. More clarity on Kleber's status is expected when the Mavericks release their official injury report Monday evening ahead of Tuesday's Game 4 tilt against Minnesota.

    • Ben Sheppard fails to score in spot start Saturday
      Ben Sheppard missed all four of his shot attempts in Saturday’s Game 3 loss to the Celtics, going scoreless with three rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 26 minutes.

      Advice: Sheppard was tabbed to fill the void left by Tyrese Haliburton, who sat with a left hamstring injury. The rookie guard didn’t provide much value in Game 3, as he was 0-of-3 from deep and failed to score. Sheppard might remain in the starting lineup for Monday’s Game 4, depending on what happens with Haliburton. If the Pacers are to extend a series they now trail 3-0, they will need more production from Sheppard. Rotoworld Saturday, 9:07 pm
       
    • Ben Sheppard to start for injured Haliburton Sat.
      Andrew Nembhard, Ben Sheppard, Aaron Nesmith, Pascal Siakam, and Myles Turner will start Saturday’s Game 3 against the Celtics.

      Advice: The Pacers are without All-NBA point guard Tyrese Haliburton, who will not play on Saturday due to a left hamstring injury. As a result, Nembhard will be the lone point guard in the starting lineup, with Sheppard moving up from the bench. The latter will experience an increase in catch-and-shoot opportunities, while Haliburton’s absence enhances Nembhard and T.J. McConnell’s DFS values. Rotoworld Saturday, 5:09 pm
       
    • Starting Game 3
      Sheppard will start Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Tyrese Haliburton (leg) has been ruled out for Game 3, and his availability for Game 4 and beyond is in jeopardy too. In 15 postseason appearances, Sheppard has averaged 5.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.2 three-pointers. Rotowire.com Saturday, 5:08 pm
       
    • Won't play Sunday
      Prosper (ankle) won't play in Sunday's matchup with the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: This will be the 14th straight game on the sidelines for Prosper, and he remains without a timetable for a return. Rotowire.com Saturday, 3:34 pm
       
    • Out again Sunday
      Kleber (shoulder) won't play Sunday in Game 3 of the Mavericks' Western Conference Finals series with the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Kleber is dealing with a right AC joint separation and remains without a clear timetable to return. His next chance to play will be Tuesday for Game 4. Rotowire.com Saturday, 3:33 pm
