    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Thursday
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms) is listed as questionable for Thursday’s Pacers-Bucks matchup.

      Advice: Haliburton struggled in Game 5 after popping up on the injury report with the same back issue but still led his team with 16 points. Whether the ailment will affect him in Game 6 remains to be seen. Rotoworld Today, 2:42 pm
       
    • Questionable for Thursday's game
      Haliburton (back) is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against Milwaukee.

      Advice: Haliburton has also been on the injury report ahead of the last two matchups but suited up and averaged 20.0 points, 5.0 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 33.0 minutes per game over those appearances. If he's available again Thursday as the Pacers attempt to clinch the series, he'll likely be able to handle a sizable workload. Rotowire.com Today, 2:33 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton leads Pacers with 16/4/6 in loss
      Tyrese Haliburton led the Pacers on Tuesday with 16 points (6-of-14 FGs), four rebounds, six assists and four triples in a 115-92 loss to the Bucks in Game 5.

      Advice: Haliburton led the team in scoring, but that doesn’t mean that this was a good game for him. It was an ugly loss for a Pacers team that had complete control of this series and was looking to close it out. Haliburton was one of five players to score in double figures for Indiana, but they set a new season-low for points in the loss. They scored less than 100 points only once this season, but they have scored 94 and 92 points in their two losses this series. The offense will have to be much better in Game 6 in order to avoid having to go back to Milwaukee for Game 7. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:19 pm
       
    • Franz Wagner turns in 14/5/6/1/1 line in Game 5
      Franz Wagner posted a full line on Tuesday with 14 points (3-of-11 FGs), five rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block and one triple against the Cavaliers in Game 5.

      Advice: After being a hero in the Game 4 blowout win, Wagner wasn’t quite as effective in Game 5. However, he was still able to turn in a well-rounded stat line, which partially made up for the lack of scoring in DFS formats. Unfortunately, this type of performance isn’t going to be enough for them to win the series, and Wagner will have to get back on track in Game 6 in Orlando on Friday in order to force a Game 7 on Sunday.

    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) cleared to play in Game 5
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms) will play in Game 5 on Tuesday against the Bucks.

      Advice: Haliburton was also questionable ahead of Game 4 with this back issue, but it hasn’t kept him off the court. With both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard out again, Haliburton will look to lead his team to the next round with a win in this one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:33 pm
       
    • Set to play Tuesday
      Haliburton (back) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Bucks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite back spasms. There is no indication that the star guard will operate on a minute restriction. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:33 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Tuesday
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms) is listed as questionable for Tuesday’s Pacers-Bucks game.

      Advice: Haliburton is on the injury report after scoring 24 points on his best shooting night of the playoffs so far. However, now his status for Game 5 is up in the air. TJ McConnell will likely see an increase in minutes should Haliburton be ruled out. Rotoworld Monday, 3:38 pm
       
    • Considered questionable for Game 5
      Haliburton is questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Bucks due to back spasms, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

      Advice: Haliburton was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Sunday's Game 4 win due to the back issue, but he was cleared and scored 24 points (8-16 FG), his most this postseason. Across four games against Milwaukee, the All-Star has averaged 15.8 points, 10.0 assists and 6.3 rebounds in 38.3 minutes per night. If Haliburton is sidelined or limited, T.J. McConnell would likely see increased playing time. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:31 pm
       
    • Drops 40 points in Game 4 win
      Edwards recorded 40 points (13-23 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 7-10 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal across 41 minutes during Sunday's 122-116 win over Phoenix in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: With this win, the Timberwolves will move on to face the winner of the series between the Nuggets and the Lakers. Edwards was outstanding in his first career playoff series victory, averaging 31.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 2.0 steals and 3.5 three-pointers through four games. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:56 am
