    • Brandon Ingram leads Pelis with 19 points in loss
      Brandon Ingram led the Pelicans with 19 points (7-of-14 FGs), five rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two triples in a 106-85 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 3 on Saturday.

      Advice: With Zion Williamson sidelined, the Pelicans have needed BI to put the team on his back. He simply hasn’t been able to do that. He is averaging 18.3 points per game in this series, which isn’t All-Star level production. They’re now down 3-0 in this series, and they’ll need Ingram to step up his aggressiveness in Game 4 on Monday if they want to extend this series. He made 50% of his shots in this game after shooting 50% in Game 2 as well. They simply need him to shoot more, which is something that Lu Dort hasn’t made easy. Rotoworld Today, 3:31 pm
       
    • Doubtful for Game 4
      Antetokounmpo (calf) is doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has been sidelined since missing the final three games of the regular season. Coach Doc Rivers hinted that Antetokounmpo is ramping up towards a return, but he wasn't optimistic about the forward returning for Sunday's contest. Rotowire.com Today, 2:54 pm
       
    • Luke Kornet (calf) cleared to play in Game 3
      Luke Kornet (left calf strain) will be available to play in Game 3 against Miami on Saturday.

      Advice: Kornet is back after missing Games 1 and 2 with this calf injury, but it is unlikely that he sees the floor if this game remains close. He is a solid depth piece, but Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford will fill the center minutes. Rotoworld Today, 1:16 pm
       
    • Available to play Saturday
      Kornet (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

      Advice: The availability of Kornet means the Celtics will be at full strength for Game 3 of the series against the Heat. Kornet should see minutes off the bench, though he's likely to have a very limited role with both Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford available. Rotowire.com Today, 1:12 pm
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo doubtful to play in Game 4
      Doc Rivers said that he “doubts” that Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) will play in Game 4 against Indiana on Sunday.

      Advice: Rivers did say that Giannis will work out early on Sunday before they decide if he will play in Game 4, so there is still certainly a chance. However, Rivers was pessimistic about the odds. Bobby Portis should continue to start at power forward in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 11:03 am
       
    • Dereck Lively II chips in 13 points off bench
      Dereck Lively II provided a boost off the bench with 13 points (6-of-8 FGs), two rebounds and two blocks in 15 minutes against the Clippers in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: Lively only played nine minutes in Game 2 and ended up missing practice on Thursday because of some soreness in his lower back. However, he was able to play in Game 3, and he was able to make an impact off the bench. He scored all 13 of his points in the first half, which included five dunks. This was a solid game for the rookie, but Dallas will likely continue to lean on Daniel Gafford for most the center minutes. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:17 pm
       
    • Luke Kornet (calf) probable Saturday vs. Heat
      Luke Kornet (left calf strain) is probable for Saturday’s Celtics-Heat matchup.

      Advice: Kornet didn’t play in Games 1 or 2 but appears poised to make his 2024 playoff debut this weekend. It’s unlikely that he’ll play a ton behind Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford, though. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:56 pm
       
    • Likely available Saturday
      Kornet (calf) is probable for Saturday's Game 3 in Miami.

      Advice: After starting the final two regular-season games while the usual starters rested, Kornet was sidelined for the first two postseason games while rehabbing a calf injury. Even if he gets the green light, Kornet isn't guaranteed a significant role, especially if Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis remain healthy. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:07 pm
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) officially out Friday
      Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is out for Friday’s matchup with the Pacers.

      Advice: Giannis will miss a third straight playoff game as the series with the Pacers shifts to Indiana. Bobby Portis usually balls out when Giannis is sidelined, and Portis will be expected to shoulder a heftier load once again. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:26 am
