    • Out for Game 5
      Prosper (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Thunder.

      Advice: Prosper has missed ten straight games with a sprained left ankle. HIs next chance to suit up will be Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:40 pm
       
    • Slots into rotation
      Walker provided five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal over nine minutes during Sunday's 121-89 victory over the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Walker played nine minutes off the bench, joining his fellow benchwarmers as the Pacers blew out the Knicks. While it was nice to see the rookie on the floor, there was possibly a case to be made for him playing even more minutes given the nature of the score. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:49 am
       
    • Increased role Sunday
      Jackson registered 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two steals in 19 minutes during Sunday's 121-89 win over New York in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Jackson played a substantial role Sunday in reaching double digits in points for the first time in the playoffs, as the Pacers easily accounted for the Knicks, leveling the series at 2-2. This was an ugly loss for New York, while Indiana fans had the time of their lives at the Knicks' expense. Given the grit and grind attitude in New York, expect to see a much-improved performance when the series continues Tuesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:48 am
       
    • Won't play Monday
      Prosper (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder.

      Advice: Prosper has missed nine straight games with a sprained left ankle. His next chance to play will come Wednesday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:53 pm
       
    • Aaron Nesmith (shoulder) available for Game 4 Sun.
      Aaron Nesmith (right shoulder soreness) is available for Sunday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: Nesmith is available after tweaking his shoulder during the second half of Friday’s Game 3 victory. The Pacers had some success using him as Jalen Brunson’s primary defender, so look for that to be Nesmith’s assignment on Sunday afternoon. The Pacers need a win to even the series at two games apiece. Rotoworld Sunday, 11:01 am
       
    • Good to go
      Nesmith (shoulder) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against the Knicks, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Nesmith was deemed questionable ahead of Sunday's contest with a sore right shoulder. However, he'll suit up for the contest and should have no restrictions. Nesmith is averaging 9.3 points and 4.3 rebounds per game during the series. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:01 am
       
    • Plays 17 minutes in return
      Wade (knee) finished Saturday's 106-93 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinal round with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 17 minutes.

      Advice: Suiting up for the first time since March 8 after needing two months to heal up from a sprained knee, Wade captured a rotation spot and helped provide the Cavaliers with some much-needed depth in the frontcourt. Though he acquitted himself well during his time on the court, Wade is unlikely to see his role grow substantially as the series rolls along, especially once center Jarrett Allen (ribs) is back in action.

    • Rare appearance in win
      Brissett closed Saturday's 106-93 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with no counting stats in one minute.

      Advice: Brissett played one minute of garbage time as the Celtics held on for a relatively comfortable victory Saturday. Barring another sizable margin, Brissett is unlikely to leave the bench on most nights, especially as we get deeper into the playoffs. Rotowire.com Sunday, 4:33 am
       
    • Limited in Game 3 win
      Hauser produced six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt) in 10 minutes during Saturday's 106-93 win over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Hauser connected on a pair of three-pointers, the highlight of what was another passive performance. Boston is generally running with a shallow rotation, with Payton Pritchard the only depth piece playing meaningful minutes. Having wrestled back home court advantage, Boston will be pushing for a 3-1 series lead when the two teams line up again Monday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 4:32 am
