  • Good to go for Game 2
    Leonard (knee) will be available to play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Mavericks, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Leonard participated at the morning shootaround and went through his usual warmup Tuesday, and the Clippers had been very optimistic about his return prior to getting the official green light. The Clippers haven't been very transparent with this injury, and it's unclear if Leonard will face restrictions Tuesday evening. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
     
  • Kawhi Leonard (knee) available for Game 2 Tuesday
    Kawhi Leonard (right knee soreness) is available for Tuesday’s game against the Mavericks.

    Advice: Leonard is officially available for Tuesday’s game, his first action since March 31. During his pregame media availability, Clippers coach Tyronn Lue said Kawhi has “checked every box” regarding his progression to being cleared to play. Amir Coffey will return to the bench with Leonard in the lineup, lowering his value in DFS tournaments. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago
     
  • Puts up shots Tuesday
    Coach Doc Rivers said Tuesday that Antetokounmpo (calf) was able to get on the floor to put up shots and is getting closer a return, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Antetokounmpo has already been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2, marking his fifth straight absence due to a left calf strain. The Bucks were able to secure the victory in Game 1 over Indiana, which gives Antetokounmpo more time to return for Milwaukee's first-round series. Rotowire.com Today, 4:23 pm
     
  • Kyle Anderson (hip) available Tuesday vs. Phoenix
    Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is available for Tuesday’s Game 2 against Phoenix.

    Advice: Anderson is available after injuring his hip during the first half of Saturday’s Game 1 victory. He’ll provide solid depth off the bench, with Monte Morris unlikely to experience an increase in playing time. Rotoworld Today, 4:13 pm
     
  • Available for Game 2
    Anderson (hip) is available for Game 2 against the Suns on Tuesday, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Advice: Anderson was able to practice Monday and will shake off his questionable tag ahead of Game 2 after his hip issue forced him to leave early in Game 1. There's no word of any restrictions heading into tipoff. Rotowire.com Today, 4:11 pm
     
  • Optimistic to play Tuesday
    The Clippers believe Leonard (knee) will be able to play in Tuesday's Game 2 against the Mavericks, Jared Greenberg of NBA TV reports.

    Advice: Leonard is officially listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest after sitting out Game 1 with right knee inflammation. However, the star forward was able to participate in shootaround. If Leonard is able to suit up against Dallas, he will likely replace Amir Coffey in the starting lineup. Rotowire.com Today, 3:56 pm
     
  • Kevin Love (arm) active for Game 2
    Kevin Love (left upper arm contusion) is active for the Heat’s Wednesday matchup with the Celtics.

    Advice: Love isn’t a threat to miss any time after appearing on the injury report following Game 1. The Heat forward has averaged 11,3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and one assist off the bench in his previous three contests. Rotoworld Today, 1:41 pm
     
  • Officially ruled out
    Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Pacers.

    Advice: As expected, Antetokounmpo has been downgraded from doubtful to out while he continues to recover from a left soleus strain. Without their star player, the Bucks were able to win Game 1 behind a stellar first-half performance from Damian Lillard, affording Antetokounmpo some extra rest, but if Milwaukee drops Game 2 at home, there may be added pressure for the MVP candidate to return Friday, when the series shifts to Indiana for Game 3.

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) ruled out Tuesday
    Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) has been ruled out for the Bucks’ Game 2 matchup against the Pacers on Tuesday.

    Advice: The Bucks’ star forward will miss his second playoff game of the postseason on Tuesday. Bobby Portis will likely continue filling in for him as a starter until his return. Rotoworld Today, 1:34 pm
