    • Returns to Game 3
      Lillard (knee) has returned to Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Lillard went straight to the locker room after suffering an apparent left knee injury with 2:13 remaining in the first quarter, but he was back on the court to start the second period. Khris Middleton is playing through an ankle sprain he suffered in Game 2, and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has yet to play this postseason, so Lillard's return is a major relief. The All-Star has scored 69 points through the first two games of the series but struggled in the second half on both matchups, which allowed Indiana to even the series with a Game 2 win Tuesday.

    • Damian Lillard (knee) returns from locker room
      Damian Lillard (knee) returned to Friday’s Bucks-Pacers game after heading to the locker room toward the end of the first quarter.

      Advice: Lillard didn’t stay in the locker room for long. He returned to the hardwood for the second quarter after a brief stint in the locker room and will continue to play in Game 3. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:21 pm
       
    • Heads to locker room
      Lillard left Friday's Game 3 with 2:13 remaining in the first quarter due to an apparent left knee injury and went to the locker room, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Lillard drove to the basket for a layup and gently collided with Pascal Siakam but landed awkwardly and had to be helped to the bench. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has yet to play this postseason, and Khris Middleton is playing through an ankle injury he suffered early in Game 2, so Lillard's potential absence couldn't come at a worse time. AJ Green subbed in for Lillard, but Pat Connaughton and Malik Beasley are also candidates for increased roles until the All-Star point guard can return. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:13 pm
       
    • Damian Lillard (knee) headed to locker room
      Damian Lillard (knee) went to the locker room during the first quarter of Friday’s Bucks-Pacers game.

      Advice: Lillard twisted his knee on a drive against the Pacers and went to the bench before heading back to the locker room. It’s unclear whether he’ll return. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:04 pm
       
    • Present at shootaround
      Leonard (knee), who is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, was present for the Clippers' morning shootaround, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Leonard returned from a nine-game absence during Tuesday's matchup against Dallas and continues to deal with knee inflammation ahead of Friday's game. However, his presence at shootaround is encouraging, and he appears to be trending in the right direction in the hours leading up to tipoff. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:11 am
       
    • Records double-double in Game 3 win
      Banchero closed with 31 points (13-26 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: There's no question that Banchero is the engine that keeps the Magic going on offense, and the star forward made his presence felt on both ends of the court Thursday, leading the Magic in both points and rebounds en route to a blowout win. Banchero has surpassed the 20-point mark in his three appearances in the series, averaging 25.3 points per game while shooting 49.2 percent from the field and 35.0 percent from three-point range.

    • Paolo Banchero drops 31/14/4/1 line in Game 3 rout
      Paolo Banchero finished Thursday’s 121-83 win over Cleveland with 31 points (13-of-26 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four 3-pointers in 29 minutes.

      Advice: After committing 15 turnovers in the series’ first two games, Banchero produced a masterclass in Game 3. In addition to the gaudy double-double, he did not commit a single turnover in his 29 minutes on the floor. Orlando finished with eight as a team, which, along with the improved shooting, factored into their sparkling performance. Banchero and the Magic will look to even the series on Saturday.

    • Kawhi Leonard (knee) questionable Friday
      Kawhi Leonard (right knee inflammation) is listed as questionable for the Clippers’ Friday matchup against the Mavericks.

      Advice: Leonard was underwhelming in his return to the hardwood in Game 2 with 15 points on 17 shots in a loss. Now he’s back on the injury report. Amir Coffey could return to the starting lineup if Leonard isn’t ready ahead of the weekend. Rotoworld Thursday, 3:44 pm
       
    • Questionable to play Friday
      Leonard is questionable for Game 3 against the Mavericks on Friday due to right knee inflammation, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

      Advice: Leonard posted 15 points and seven rebounds in his return to action in Game 2. While he's included on the injury report ahead of Friday's contest, he did log 35 minutes in Game 2, so he should be in line to handle his regular workload in a pivotal matchup at home.
