    • Mike Conley (calf) questionable for Game 1 Weds.
      Mike Conley (left soleus strain) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks.

      Advice: Questionable for Wednesday’s series opener, Conley played in Games 6 and 7 of Minnesota’s second-round series against Denver despite having that tag. Due to the soleus strain, the veteran point guard missed Game 5 of that series. Given the trend, DFS players and bettors should expect to see Conley on the court on Wednesday. Nickeil Alexander-Walker is the most likely choice to fill the void if he cannot play. Rotoworld Today, 3:41 pm
       
    • Deemed questionable for Game 1
      Conley (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals versus the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Conley continues to deal with a right soleus strain but has suited up in each of Minnesota's last two contests. The veteran guard played 38 minutes in Game 7 against Denver, so he will likely be set for a full workload if he's upgraded to available. Rotowire.com Today, 3:28 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) probable for Game 1 Wed.
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Despite ankle and knee injuries, Doncic has not missed a game this postseason. That trend should continue for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Wednesday, which would be good for DFS players who want to slot him into their lineups. In two games against Minnesota during the regular season, Doncic averaged 36.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 10.5 assists, 1.5 steals, 3.5 3-pointers, and 5.5 turnovers. Rotoworld Today, 2:42 pm
       
    • Likely to play Wednesday
      Doncic (knee/ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Doncic continues to deal with a right knee sprain and left ankle soreness but has yet to miss a game these playoffs. The superstar guard is averaging 42.1 minutes per contest across his 12 appearances this postseason. Rotowire.com Today, 2:39 pm
       
    • Available, starting Game 7
      Conley (Achilles) will start Sunday's Game 7 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Conley will shed a second consecutive questionable tag after missing Game 5 with an Achilles injury. The veteran guard put together a solid performance in Game 6 and was able to record 31 minutes, so he likely won't face any limitations during Sunday's win-or-go-home scenario.

    • Mike Conley (calf) available for Game 7 Sunday
      Mike Conley (left soleus strain) is available for Sunday’s game against the Nuggets.

      Advice: As was the case with Denver’s Jamal Murray, Conley was expected to not miss Sunday’s Game 7. He will occupy his usual place within the Timberwolves’ starting lineup, with Nickeil Alexander-Walker coming off the bench. Rotoworld Sunday, 4:33 pm
       
    • Triples-doubles in Game 6 win
      Doncic racked up 29 points (9-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals over 45 minutes during Saturday's 117-116 victory over Oklahoma City in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Doncic did just enough to get his team over the line, recording his third straight triple-double despite dealing with multiple injuries. Heading into the Western Conference Finals, Dallas will be hoping that Doncic can continue to play through his ailments. With a physical matchup almost certainly in the cards, Doncic is simply going to have to absorb any contact that might come his way while trying to maintain his composure.

    • Luka Doncic posts 29/10/10/2 line in Game 6 win
      Luka Doncic played 44 minutes in Saturday’s 117-116 win over the Thunder, tallying 29 points (9-of-15 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), 10 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals, and four 3-pointers.

      Advice: Doncic and the Mavericks are headed to the Western Conference Finals for the second time in three years. He struggled with multiple injuries throughout this series, but Luka continued to shoulder a heavy workload. The lone negative for Doncic in Game 6 was the turnovers, as he was responsible for seven. There was some early frustration with the officials, but Doncic managed his emotions well as the game progressed. Next up for Dallas is Denver or Minnesota, with Game 1 scheduled for Wednesday night.

    • Mike Conley (calf) questionable for Game 7 Sunday
      Mike Conley (right soleus strain) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Nuggets.

      Advice: Conley returned to the Timberwolves’ lineup for Game 6, and his presence also benefitted Anthony Edwards in the 45-point victory. If the veteran point guard cannot play in Game 7, Nickeil Alexander-Walker will move into the starting lineup. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:59 pm
