    • Obi Toppin contributes 15 points in Game 1 loss
      Obi Toppin tallied 15 points (6-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 22 minutes in Tuesday’s 133-128 loss to the Celtics.

      Advice: The Pacers reserves scored 30 points in Game 1, enjoying a 17-point advantage in that category. Toppin and T.J. McConnell (13/3/4/1 in 25 minutes) were responsible for 28 of those 30 points, but it wasn’t enough to help the Pacers hold onto Game 1. Getting outscored by a 24-9 margin at the foul line and committing 21 turnovers were the issues for the Pacers, who had a three-point lead with 46.1 seconds remaining in regulation. A Jaylen Brown 3-pointer with six seconds remaining forced overtime, with Boston taking a 1-0 series lead. Game 2 is on Thursday night, and this is another series in which Toppin and McConnell will have an advantage.

    • Poor offensive showing Sunday
      Caldwell-Pope racked up five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope scored single digits for the sixth time in the past eight games, highlighting the Nuggets' struggles when it comes to depth on the offensive end. While he continues to play a key role for Denver, his lack of production cannot be ignored when it comes to fantasy value. Looking ahead to next season, there is no reason to think he will be anything more than a situational streamer, utilized for steals and threes. Rotowire.com Monday, 4:01 am
       
    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope posts 5/6/3/2/1 line Sun.
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope played 40 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Timberwolves, tallying five points (2-of-7 FGs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: After hitting four 3-pointers and scoring 16 points in Game 5, Caldwell-Pope ended his season with a whimper. In Denver’s losses to the Timberwolves in games 6 and 7, KCP scored 14 points on 4-of-13 shooting from the field (3-10 3-pointers). The veteran guard has been a mainstay in the Nuggets starting lineup, providing solid fantasy value. Caldwell-Pope finished this season ranked just outside the top 100 in 9-cat formats, but few fantasy managers are willing to roll the dice on him that early in drafts. KCP had a Yahoo ADP of 139.6, and that’s unlikely to change in 2024-25. Rotoworld Sunday, 8:42 pm
       
    • Unlikely to return Sunday
      Anunoby (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's Game 7 against the Pacers, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

      Advice: Smith and ESPN's broadcast said Anunoby, who started in his return from a four-game absence and scored five points in five minutes before exiting, won't return Sunday. However, Fred Katz of The Athletic relays that the Knicks haven't officially ruled Anunoby out yet. Miles McBride started the second half in place of Anunoby. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:12 pm
       
    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) will not return Sunday
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) will not return to Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Sidelined since Game 2, Anunoby gave it a go in Sunday’s Game 7. He did make both of his shot attempts, scoring five points, but it was clear that the Knicks forward was not his usual self. Anunoby played five minutes before exiting, and the decision was made at halftime to rule him out for the rest of the afternoon. Miles McBride started the third quarter; he and Alec Burks will play more minutes in the second half. Rotoworld Sunday, 2:05 pm
       
    • Woj: OG Anunoby, Josh Hart will play in Game 7
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) and Josh Hart (abdominal strain) will play in Game 7 against Indiana on Sunday, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

      Advice: New York will have Anunoby back after he missed the last four games of the series. Though both players are still dealing with injuries, the Knicks will have most of their typical rotation available to play. Precious Achiuwa should be pushed back to the bench with OG back.

    • Will start Sunday
      Anunoby (hamstring) is active and will start Sunday's Game 7 against the Pacers, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

      Advice: Anunoby will return to action for the decisive Game 7 after missing the previous four matchups due to a left hamstring strain. Josh Hart is also available despite suffering an abdominal strain during Game 6. Anunoby had 28 points (10-19 FG) in 28 minutes during Game 2 before suffering the injury, but he'll likely face some limitations Sunday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:04 pm
       
    • Woj: Anunoby, Hart ‘on course’ to play in Game 7
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) and Josh Hart (abdominal strain) are “on course” to play in Game 7 against Indiana on Sunday.

      Advice: Both players came into the game as questionable, with Anunoby having been sidelined since Game 2. However, the Knicks are expected to be close to full strength as they look to advance to the conference finals. Precious Achiuwa should return to playing a reserve role if both OG and Hart end up playing. Rotoworld Sunday, 9:25 am
       
    • On track to play
      Anunoby, who's officially listed as questionable due to a left hamstring strain, is on course to play in Sunday's Game 7 against Indiana, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

      Advice: The Knicks could have Anunoby, who's missed the last four games, and Josh Hart (abdomen) available for the deciding Game 7. While the pair are trending toward playing, their availability won't be made official until closer to the 3:30 ET tip. If Anunoby goes, Precious Achiuwa would likely see less work and Jericho Sims could be pushed out of the rotation. Considering Anunoby hasn't played since May 8, he could be under a minutes restriction Sunday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:24 am
