  • Questionable for Sunday
    Jackson (calf) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

    Advice: Jackson played through the same questionable tag for Friday's Game 4 blowout win, but he saw just eight minutes with six points (2-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one turnover. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
     
  • Listed as questionable
    Murray (calf) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

    Advice: Murray has been playing through questionable tags for the entirety of the series so far, so fantasy managers can expect the same to continue Sunday. Murray looked sharp in Friday's Game 3, producing 24 points (11-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five assists, four rebounds and three steals over 38 minutes. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
     
  • Reggie Jackson (calf) questionable for Game 4 Sun.
    Reggie Jackson (left calf contusion) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

    Advice: Jackson hasn’t missed a game this postseason, but his playing time has decreased, with Nuggets coach Michael Malone leaning on his starters even more. “Big Government” only played eight minutes in Friday’s win over Minnesota and will shoulder a similar workload in Game 4.

  • Jamal Murray (calf) questionable for Game 4 Sunday
    Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Timberwolves.

    Advice: Murray is back on the injury report, but the calf strain has not forced him to miss any games. He looked much better in Friday’s Game 3 victory, played after a three-day break in the series. The lingering question is whether Murray can play that well after just one day of rest between games.

  • Luka Doncic (knee, ankle) available for Game 3
    Luka Doncic (right knee sprain, left ankle soreness) is available for Saturday’s game against the Thunder.

    Advice: Doncic was probable on the initial injury report, so his status upgrade is unsurprising. The Mavericks will stick with their usual starting lineup for Game 3, with Kyrie Irving, Derrick Jones Jr., PJ Washington, and Daniel Gafford completing the quintet. Rotoworld Today, 11:13 am
     
  • Good to go
    Doncic (knee/ankle) is available for Saturday's Game 3 against Oklahoma City.

    Advice: Doncic has been dealing with a sprained right knee and, more recently, a sore left ankle. However, he's been able to play in every playoff contest this far and will be active for Game 3. Doncic has averaged 24.0 points, 8.0 assists, 8.0 rebounds and 2.5 steals over 41.0 minutes in the first two games of the series. Rotowire.com Today, 11:03 am
     
  • Luka Doncic (knee, ankle) probable Saturday
    Luka Doncic (right knee sprain, left ankle soreness) has been upgraded from questionable to probable ahead of Saturday’s Game 2 matchup between the Mavericks and Thunder.

    Advice: Doncic is trending in the right direction ahead of Game 3. The Mavericks star hasn’t slowed down despite dealing with multiple injuries this postseason and will look to secure a lead in the second round with a victory in Dallas. Rotoworld Today, 10:04 am
     
  • Shines in Game 3 victory
    Haliburton closed Friday's 111-106 win over New York in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 35 points (14-26 FG, 6-16 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes.

    Advice: The Pacers needed Haliburton to carry them offensively, and while Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner delivered impressive stat lines, Haliburton was the engine that kept the team going. This 35-point effort was a playoff-high mark during the current season, and he seems to be catching fire after surpassing the 30-point plateau in each of his last two appearances.

  • Struggles with shot in Game 3
    Brunson supplied 26 points (10-26 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-7 FT), six assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Friday's 111-106 loss to the Pacers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

    Advice: Brunson's final stat line looks decent overall, but the fact that he needed 26 shots to score 26 points can't be overlooked. The star guard has been one of the league's best players during the current playoff run, and the Knicks need him to be more efficient ahead of a pivotal Game 4 on Sunday. This was just a bump on the road for Brunson, however, as he's shooting 50 percent from the field while averaging 32.7 points per game so far in the series. Rotowire.com Today, 8:10 am
