  • Olivier-Maxence Prosper (ankle) remains out Sunday
    Olivier Maxence-Prosper (left ankle sprain) will remain sidelined for Game 4 against the Clippers on Sunday.

    Advice: O-Max isn’t going to be part of their playoff rotation when healthy, so his continued absence will not have much of an impact. Rotoworld Today, 1:37 pm
     
  • Will be questionable for Game 4
    Leonard (knee) will be questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Mavericks, head coach Tyronn Lue told Joey Linn of SI.com.

    Advice: Leonard logged 25 minutes in Friday's Game 3 loss, finishing with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and two assists, but he didn't look as fluid in his movements as he did in Game 2, where he was able to play 35 minutes while pouring 15 points, seven rebounds and four steals. His official status will be determined closer to Sunday's 3.30 p.m. ET tipoff, but if he's ruled out, then Terance Mann and Amir Coffey would be in line to pick up extra minutes.

  • Jonathan Isaac chips in 14/7/1/1/2 line off bench
    Jonathan Isaac provided a boost off the bench on Saturday with 14 points (5-of-7 FGs), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal, two blocks and four triples in Game 4 against Cleveland.

    Advice: After starting the first two games of this series, Isaac came off the bench for the last two. He had a decent performance in Game 3, but he provided an excellent boost off the bench in this one. Isaac’s defense has been critical through the series, but he was also able to make an impact with from beyond the arc in this one. They won their two home games with Isaac coming off the bench, and the offense was significantly better. Isaac will continue to play an important reserve role in Game 5 on Tuesday.

  • Franz Wagner drops 34/13/4 in Game 4 win over Cavs
    Franz Wagner led the Magic with 34 points (13-of-17 FGs), 13 rebounds, four assists, one block and two triples in a 112-89 win over Cleveland in Game 4 on Saturday.

    Advice: Wagner took over in the third quarter, scoring 12 points in the period as Orlando outscored the Cavs 37-10. The Magic trailed by nine points at halftime, but they won by 23 because of elite defense and Wagner’s offense. He has been solid in this series, but Wagner played like a true star in this one, which was needed with Paolo Banchero (9 points) struggling. They tied the series up with two convincing wins, and they’ll need to bring some of this offense with them to Cleveland for Game 5 if they want to take a lead in this series. After averaging 84.5 points in the first two games of this series, they have averaged 116.5 over the last two. Rotoworld Today, 1:04 pm
     
  • Evan Mobley turns in 14/9/3/2/2 line in Game 4
    Evan Mobley posted a full line with 14 points (6-of-13 FGs), nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks against the Magic on Saturday.

    Advice: Mobley scored 12 of his 14 points before halftime, and he was able to turn in a complete line in the Game 4 loss. This was a solid performance in the box score for him, but the second half was a disappointment for the team. Mobley didn’t do much in 22 minutes in the blowout loss in Game 3, but he was more effective in this game. With the series tied 2-2, they’ll need another performance like this out of Mobley in order to secure the Game 5 win at home on Tuesday. Rotoworld Today, 12:56 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
     
  • Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) out for Game 3 Sat.
    Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (left ankle sprain) is out for Saturday’s game against the Thunder.

    Advice: Robinson-Earl is a late addition to the injury report. However, his absence will not impact the Pelicans’ rotation, as he played a total of five minutes in the first two games of this series. Rotoworld Today, 10:38 am
     
  • Haywood Highsmith (arm) available for Game 3 Sat.
    Haywood Highsmith (left upper arm contusion) is available for Saturday’s game against Boston.

    Advice: Highsmith has played 26 minutes in each of the first two games of this series, which will be his likely workload for Game 3. He’s capable of providing a few 3-pointers and some rebounds, but that isn’t enough to merit being slotted into most DFS lineups. Rotoworld Today, 8:27 am
     
  • Kevin Love (arm) available for Game 3 Saturday
    Kevin Love (left upper arm contusion) is available for Saturday’s game against Boston.

    Advice: Love was initially probable for Game 3, so the status upgrade is unsurprising. He’ll provide frontcourt depth off the bench but is unlikely to be productive enough to merit being rostered in DFS lineups. Rotoworld Today, 8:25 am
