    • Ekes out double-double in win
      Haliburton provided 12 points (4-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, 12 assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 125-108 victory over the Bucks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Although Haliburton's former reputation as a prolific scorer has faded throughout the season, his skill as a facilitator is as strong as ever. The Pacers could use a dose of Haliburton's former shot volume as they attempt to advance, but recent trends show that big scoring numbers for the guard may not be coming. He's now gone four consecutive games with 20 points or less and has exceeded that number only four times over his past 10 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:03 am
       
    • Strong two-way effort in return
      Leonard totaled 15 points (7-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 96-93 loss to Dallas in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Leonard returned to action Tuesday after missing nine straight games due to a knee injury. Although he was somewhat tentative to begin the game, he led the team in shot attempts and added five defensive stats. Barring any setbacks, Leonard should be good to go for Game 3 in Dallas on Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:17 am
       
    • Kawhi Leonard scores 15 points in return Tuesday
      Kawhi Leonard shot 7-of-17 from the field and 1-of-2 from the foul line in Tuesday’s 96-93 loss to the Mavericks, amassing 15 points, seven rebounds, two assists, four steals, and one blocked shot in 35 minutes.

      Advice: To no one’s surprise, Leonard looked rusty offensively in his first game since March 31. While he did everything he needed to go during his recovery process, Kawhi did not take any contact during those individual sessions. Maybe that had something to do with his shaky performance in Game 2, but give Leonard credit for impacting the rebound and steals categories. Game 3 is on Friday in Dallas, with the teams tied at one win apiece. Rotoworld Tuesday, 10:27 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton posts double-double in Game 2
      Tyrese Haliburton finished Tuesday’s 125-108 win over the Bucks with 12 points (4-of-10 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, 12 assists, one steal, one block, and three 3-pointers in 37 minutes.

      Advice: While Haliburton’s scoring production remained below his usual standard in Game 2, he was much more impactful as a playmaker. The All-Star point guard dished out 12 helpers in the Pacers’ victory after accumulating eight in Game 1. Indiana won Game 2 in the paint, scoring 52 of its 125 points in that area. Also, Haliburton and the rest of the team were a plus-9 in fast break points. They’ll look to do more of the same in Game 3 on Friday. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:06 pm
       
    • 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 in the team's 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 whether Leonard will face restrictions Tuesday evening. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 5:27 pm
       
    • 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 Tuesday, 5:19 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.

    • Present at shootaround
      Leonard (knee) is officially listed as questionable but was present for the Clippers' morning shootaround before Tuesday's Game 2 against the Mavericks, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com

      Advice: Leonard was ruled out for Sunday's Game 1 win, his ninth consecutive absence, but has a chance to return Tuesday. The Clippers will likely decide the veteran's availability closer to the 10 p.m. ET tipoff after seeing how he fares in pregame warmups. If Leonard is ruled out again, expect Terance Mann and Amir Coffey to pick up extra minutes. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:02 am
       
    • Kawhi Leonard (knee) questionable for Game 2 Tues.
      Kawhi Leonard (right knee soreness) is questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Mavericks.

      Advice: Leonard has not appeared in a game since March 31 and was limited to individual work as recently as Saturday. The questionable tag is encouraging, but this may be a game-time decision for the Clippers (and Leonard) to make. Amir Coffey would remain in the starting lineup if Kawhi cannot play, but he doesn’t offer a high offensive upside. Rotoworld Monday, 5:22 pm
