  • Kevin Love (arm) probable Saturday vs. Celtics
    Kevin Love (left upper arm contusion) is probable for Saturday’s Heat-Celtics game.

    Advice: Love logged just six minutes in Miami’s Game 2 win and appears poised to continue coming off the bench moving forward. He was held scoreless in his last outing. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
     
  • Luke Kornet (calf) probable Saturday vs. Heat
    Luke Kornet (left calf strain) is probable for Saturday’s Celtics-Heat matchup.

    Advice: Kornet didn’t play in Games 1 or 2 but appears poised to make his 2024 playoff debut this weekend. It’s unlikely that he’ll play a ton behind Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford, though. Rotoworld 54 minutes ago
     
  • Good to go Saturday
    Nance (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's Game 3 against the Thunder.

    Advice: Nance was held to just 14 minutes of action in Game 2 due to an apparent right ankle injury. However, Nance should be available and serve as one of New Orleans' primary frontcourt options off the bench in Game 3. Rotowire.com Today, 2:22 pm
     
  • Likely available Saturday
    Kornet (calf) is probable for Saturday's Game 3 in Miami.

    Advice: After starting the final two regular-season games while the usual starters rested, Kornet was sidelined for the first two postseason games while rehabbing a calf injury. Even if he gets the green light, Kornet isn't guaranteed a significant role, especially if Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis remain healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 2:07 pm
     
  • Practices Friday
    Nance (undisclosed) was a full participant in practice Friday, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

    Advice: Nance left Wednesday's Game 2 loss to the Thunder in the third quarter favoring his right leg and grabbed at his ankle as he walked to the locker room. He didn't play at all in the final frame. On Friday, coach Willie Green said that despite the soreness, Nance "went through a full practice." This is good news for the Pelicans, who are still without Zion Williamson (hamstring). Rotowire.com Today, 12:47 pm
     
  • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) officially out Friday
    Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is out for Friday’s matchup with the Pacers.

    Advice: Giannis will miss a third straight playoff game as the series with the Pacers shifts to Indiana. Bobby Portis usually balls out when Giannis is sidelined, and Portis will be expected to shoulder a heftier load once again. Rotoworld Today, 10:26 am
     
  • Present at shootaround
    Gafford (back) was on the court and walking around during shootaround ahead of Friday's Game 3 versus the Clippers, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: Gafford is officially listed as questionable Friday due to back spasms. The 24-year-old big man's availability will likely be determined shortly before tipoff at 8 pm ET. Rotowire.com Today, 9:10 am
     
  • Officially ruled out
    Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers.

    Advice: Antetokounmpo was doubtful on Milwaukee's initial injury report, and he'll officially miss a sixth consecutive game as the team attempts to regain a lead in the first-round series. His next chance to suit up will be in Game 4 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:33 am
     
  • Massive line in Game 3 defeat
    Davis finished Thursday's 112-105 loss to Denver in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 33 points (14-23 FG, 5-7 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 43 minutes.

    Advice: LeBron James has been the most influential all-around player for the Lakers in the series, but when it comes to putting up numbers, Davis has been leading the way. He's recorded at least 32 points with double-digit rebounds in the three games in the series so far. Davis should be in line to handle another heavy workload in Game 4 on Saturday regardless of whether he's on the injury report. Rotowire.com Today, 6:16 am
