    • Kyrie Irving struggles, finishes with 16 points
      Kyrie Irving played 42 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Timberwolves, accounting for 16 points (6-of-18 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: Throughout the postseason, Irving has made a habit of flipping the switch after halftime. He scored ten of his 16 points in the second half, but the overall inefficiency was an issue for Irving and the Mavericks. Tuesday’s loss drops his record in close-out games to 14-1, which is still remarkable. Kyrie and the Mavericks now have to head north for Game 5 on Thursday, where they’ll have another opportunity to seal their first NBA Finals appearance since 2011.

    • Sniffs double-double in Game 4
      Holiday ended Monday's 105-102 victory over the Pacers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals with 17 points (7-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and two assists over 38 minutes.

      Advice: Holiday was deemed available despite being initially tabbed questionable due to an illness for the second game in a row, and he made his presence felt as a do-it-all, two-way guard in an offensive scheme in which he occupies a secondary role. Despite the fact Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown often carry the Celtics, Holiday had some excellent performances against the Pacers, averaging 18.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.3 steals per game in the series.

    • Jrue Holiday (illness) available for Game 4 Monday
      Jrue Holiday (non-COVID illness) is available for Monday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: As was the case with Game 3 on Saturday, Holiday is available after the Celtics listed him as questionable on the initial injury report. He will take on his usual duties as a starter alongside Derrick White. Holiday played 35 minutes in Game 3, making crucial plays on both ends of the floor to help Boston complete a comeback from 18 points down. Rotoworld Monday, 3:32 pm
       
    • Ready to go for Game 4
      Holiday (illness) has been cleared to play in Monday's Game 4 against the Pacers, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Holiday made it through morning shootaround without issue and has now been given the green light to take the court Monday evening. He didn't face any type of restriction in Game 3 (38 minutes) and should be a full go as the Celtics aim for a series sweep. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:19 pm
       
    • Participates in shootaround
      Holiday (illness) participated in the Celtics' morning shootaround ahead of Monday's Game 4 against the Pacers, Dan Roche of WBZ-TV reports.

      Advice: Holiday is questionable for Monday's matchup due to an illness, but his participation in shootaround is encouraging. He was considered a game-time decision for Saturday's Game 3 before tallying 14 points, nine rebounds, three assists, three steals and a block in 38 minutes. If he's available Monday, it seems likely that he'll be able to handle a full workload as the Celtics attempt to close out the series. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:00 am
       
    • Thrives in fourth quarter Sunday
      Irving logged 33 points (12-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 42 minutes during Sunday's 116-107 victory over the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: There's a reason why people around the NBA call Irving "Mr. Fourth Quarter," and the star floor general has lived up to that nickname in Dallas' last two playoff wins. He scored 14 points in the final frame in Game 2 of the series, and he added 13 points while going 4-for-5 from the field in the final 12 minutes of Sunday's contest. Luka Doncic continues to lead the Mavericks offensively, but Irving is thriving when the team needs him the most and has been an outstanding second option on offense so far in these playoffs.

    • Kyrie Irving scores 33 points in Game 3 triumph
      Kyrie Irving played 42 minutes in Sunday’s 116-107 win over Minnesota, tallying 33 points (12-of-20 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal, and three 3-pointers.

      Advice: Dallas has the proven “closers” in this series, while Minnesota doesn’t. Irving scored 14 of his 33 points in the fourth quarter, combining with Luka Doncic to lead the Mavericks to a 3-0 series lead. Teams that have won the first three games of a best-of-7 series are 154-0 all-time, so it may be a matter of “when” the Mavericks reach the finals for the first time since 2011 instead of “if.” Also, Irving is 14-0 in his NBA postseason career in close-out games.

    • Jrue Holiday (illness) questionable for Game 4
      Jrue Holiday (non-COVID illness) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Holiday was also questionable for Game 3 before being cleared to play. And he was highly impactful in the Celtics’ comeback victory, making decisive plays on both ends of the floor in the final minute. Look for Holiday to be a game-time decision for Game 4, and it would be surprising if he does not play. Rotoworld Sunday, 3:03 pm
       
    • Deemed questionable
      Holiday (illness) is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Pacers,Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: Holiday was a late addition to the Celtics' injury report for Game 3 due to sickness but ended up playing 38 minutes in the win. Considering Boston could clinch a spot in the Finals with a win, Holiday should be expected to play through the illness -- assuming his condition hasn't worsened. The veteran point guard is averaging 19.0 points, 7.0 assists, 6.3 rebounds and 2.0 steals per game during the series. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:18 pm
