  • 75-103-2 16th Place
    • Grabs eight rebounds in Game 3 loss
      Jovic logged 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Jovic has been forced to play a prominent role for the Heat over the last few weeks, but he has been up to the task this postseason, scoring in double digits and grabbing at least six rebounds in his three appearances during the current series against Boston. Jovic should remain in the starting lineup for Game 4 on Monday. He's averaging 12.0 points and 7.7 rebounds in the first three games of the series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:10 pm
       
    • Christian Wood (knee) picks up DNP-CD Saturday
      Christian Wood (left knee surgery) did not play in Saturday’s win over the Nuggets.

      Advice: Wood has not appeared in a game since February 14, so inserting him into a game of this magnitude may have been far-fetched. Lakers coach Darvin Ham stuck with his usual nine-man rotation, which may be the case as long as this series continues. Game 5 is on Monday in Denver. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:03 pm
       
    • Nikola Jovic tallies 15 points, full stat line
      Nikola Jovic accumulated 15 points (5-of-11 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and three 3-pointers in 33 minutes in Saturday’s Game 3 loss to the Celtics.

      Advice: With Jimmy Butler sidelined, Jovic has been asked to provide more production and answered the call. The second-year forward recorded a full stat line for the second consecutive game, shooting 3-of-5 from beyond the arc. Also noteworthy for Jovic in Game 3 was the playing time, as he logged 34 minutes after accounting for 26 and 26 in the series’ first two games. Duncan Robinson, who has been dealing with left facet syndrome, only playing seven minutes had a lot to do with that. Also taking on an enhanced role during this series has been Jaime Jaquez Jr., who finished Game 3 with 12 points, five rebounds, five assists, and one blocked shot in 34 minutes. He and Jovic must step forward in Game 4 on Monday night, as the Heat trail two games to one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:28 pm
       
    • Fails to score Saturday
      Ryan amassed zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal over three minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to the Thunder in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Ryan failed to score in his three minutes, adding to what was a terrible night for New Orleans. Playing in front of their home fans, the Pelicans offered little resistance. Now on the brink of elimination, New Orleans will look to turn things around Monday in the hope of sending the series back to Oklahoma City. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:22 pm
       
    • Rare appearance in loss
      Liddell amassed one rebound in three minutes during Saturday's 106-85 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Liddell saw rare playing time in the loss, as the Pelicans were blown out on their home court. The fact that he was in the rotation tells you everything you need to know about the Pelicans' status right now. They will look to salvage some pride when the two teams face off again in Game 4, also in New Orleans. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:19 pm
       
    • Struggles continue Saturday
      Hayward had four rebounds and one assist across eight minutes during Saturday's 106-85 victory over the Pelicans in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Hayward continues to be nothing more than a depth piece for the Thunder, logging just eight minutes in the victory. While he does provide the team with a veteran presence, Hayward is not viewed as a key on-court piece. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:17 pm
       
    • Tallies three steals in win
      Wallace accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and three steals across 18 minutes during Saturday's 106-85 win over the Pelicans in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Wallace continued to be a pest on the defensive end of the floor, racking up three steals in the blowout victory. Despite coming off the bench, Wallace has been an impactful player for the Thunder, often used in situations for which defense is key. Game 4 will take place Monday, and the Thunder will look to wrap things up against an undermanned Pelicans outfit. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:16 pm
       
    • Reggie Jackson (ankle) available for Game 4 Sat.
      Reggie Jackson (left ankle sprain) is available for Saturday’s game against the Lakers.

      Advice: Jackson is available after spraining his ankle during the first half of Thursday’s Game 3 victory. He was considered questionable to return to that game but never did, hence the questions surrounding his status for Game 4. Jackson will continue to serve as Jamal Murray’s backup, which limits his DFS value. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:52 pm
       
    • Available to play
      Jackson (ankle) is available to play in Saturday's Game 4 versus the Lakers.

      Advice: Jackson was carrying a questionable tag prior to this update, as he left the Nuggets' Game 3 win Thursday in the third quarter and was unable to return due to a minor ankle tweak. He's expected to see his usual minutes as Denver's backup point guard Saturday night. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:52 pm
