    • Tyrese Haliburton (back, ankle) questionable
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms, sacral contusion, right ankle sprain) is questionable to play in Game 5 against New York on Tuesday.

      Advice: Haliburton continues to deal with a ton of lingering injuries, but it is unlikely that they keep him out of the lineup for a pivotal Game 5 matchup in New York. Haliburton had 20 points in a blowout win in Game 4 after dropping 35 in Game 3. They’ll need him to shine once again on Tuesday to gain an advantage in the series. Rotoworld Today, 2:32 pm
       
    • Officially cleared to play
      Kornet (calf) is available for Monday's Game 4 against the Cavaliers.

      Advice: Kornet was probable for Monday's matchup and will officially be able to suit up once again. Over the first three games of the series, he's averaged 3.0 points and 4.7 rebounds in 13.7 minutes per game. Rotowire.com Today, 2:10 pm
       
    • Luke Kornet (calf) cleared to play in Game 4
      Luke Kornet (right calf tightness) has been cleared to play in Game 4 against Cleveland on Monday.

      Advice: As expected, Kornet will be available to play the backup center minutes in this game. He played 21 minutes in the blowout win in Game 1, but he has played a total of 20 minutes in the two games since then. Barring a lopsided score, Kornet will likely play a minimal role in this game.

    • Jamal Murray (calf) questionable for Game 5 Tues.
      Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is questionable to play in Game 5 against Minnesota on Tuesday.

      Advice: Murray continues to deal with this calf injury, but it hasn’t force him to miss any time during this postseason. That likely won’t start in a pivotal Game 5, though if something changes, Reggie Jackson would start in his place. Rotoworld Today, 1:34 pm
       
    • Listed as questionable again
      Murray is questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

      Advice: After a tumultuous Game 2, Murray and the Nuggets rebounded for back-to-back wins in Minnesota to even the series. While the calf injury remains a storyline for the point guard, Murray hasn't looked bothered by the issue over the last two games, as he's averaged 21.5 points, 6.5 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 steals in 38.5 minutes. Murray is likely more probable than questionable for Game 5, but his official availability will likely come down to a game-time decision. Rotowire.com Today, 1:34 pm
       
    • Goes through shootaround
      Doncic (knee/ankle) took part in the Mavericks' morning shootaround but remains questionable for Monday's Game 4 matchup with the Thunder in the Western Conference semifinal round, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Despite carrying a questionable tag into Game 4, Doncic doesn't seem to be in any real danger of missing the contest. He helped the Mavericks claim a 2-1 series lead in Saturday's 105-101 win, pouring in 22 points (7-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-10 FT) to go with 15 rebounds, five assists and two steals across 40 minutes.

    • Strong outing not enough in Game 4
      Edwards finished Sunday's 115-107 loss to the Nuggets in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 44 points (16-25 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 45 minutes.

      Advice: Edwards carried the Timberwolves on offense in Game 4, and at times, he did the heavy lifting all by himself. However, his impressive stat line was not enough to avoid a second consecutive loss at home. Edwards has scored 40 or more points in three of his last five playoff appearances, including twice in the current series. He'll aim to keep that run going Tuesday in Game 5.

    • Hands out nine dimes in Game 4 loss
      Conley contributed 15 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 115-107 loss to Denver in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Conley didn't have his best shooting performance, but the veteran point guard keeps finding ways to contribute even when his shot isn't falling. He's now scored in double digits in three of the four games thus far while dishing out at least six assists each time. Rotowire.com Today, 8:38 am
       
    • Struggles from field Sunday
      Towns posted 13 points (5-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Sunday's 115-107 loss to the Nuggets in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Towns might have ended with a double-double, and his overall stat line looked decent despite the loss. Still, his shooting woes are impossible to overlook, especially in a game where the Timberwolves needed him to provide a spark on offense. Towns needs to be better offensively for the Wolves. Otherwise, he forces players such as Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley to handle bigger roles on offense, and that's not a recipe for success. Towns is averaging 18.5 points per game while shooting 50.9 percent from the field in the series, and he needs to shake off this woeful showing in Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:37 am
