  • 102-73-5 5th Place
    • Puts up 22 points in Game 3 loss
      Reaves ended with 22 points (8-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and four steals across 41 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Reaves had two subpar showings in the first two games of the series, and even though he bounced back in Game 3, his efforts were not enough to lift the Lakers to victory. Reaves will aim to replicate these numbers in Game 4 on Saturday, as the Lakers need to win to avoid a first-round exit. Reaves is averaging 14.7 points per game in the series while shooting 45.9 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from deep. Rotowire.com Today, 6:18 am
       
    • Sniffs triple-double in Game 3
      Jokic accumulated 24 points (9-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 15 rebounds, nine assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 victory over the Lakers in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: It seemed effortless at times, but Jokic once again finished just shy of posting a triple-double, despite dealing with the imposing threat of Anthony Davis on both ends of the court throughout the entire contest. Jokic has posted seven straight double-doubles dating back to the regular season, and he's averaging 27.7 points, 15.7 rebounds, 8.7 assists and 1.7 steals per game so far in the series against the Lakers.

    • Solid outing in Game 3 loss
      LeVert logged 15 points (5-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block over 29 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 loss to the Magic in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: LeVert benefited from the game being a blowout to deliver a decent stat line, and it's worth noting he also logged more than 25 minutes off the bench for the first time in the series. LeVert should remain the Cavaliers' main scoring weapon off the bench, but in that role and given the heavy workload the starters tend to endure regularly, his upside in DFS and playoff slates isn't very high. He's averaging 9.3 points per game while shooting 35.7 percent from the field in the series. Rotowire.com Today, 6:00 am
       
    • Austin Reaves records 22 points, four steals
      Austin Reaves accumulated 22 points (8-of-17 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, three assists, four steals, and two 3-pointers in 41 minutes in Thursday’s Game 3 loss to the Nuggets.

      Advice: Reaves was one of three Lakers starters to score at least 22 points, but that wasn’t enough to avoid an 11th straight loss to the Nuggets. D’Angelo Russell going scoreless and Rui Hachimura finishing with five points certainly didn’t help matters for the Lakers, who need a win on Saturday to extend their season. Reaves matched his point total from the first two games in Game 3 while accumulating four steals. That’s positive momentum he can take into Game 4; whether or not it matters is another conversation, given Denver’s mastery of the Lakers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:28 pm
       
    • Nikola Jokic posts 24/15/9/1 stat line in Game 3
      Nikola Jokic amassed 24 points (9-of-13 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), 15 rebounds, nine assists, and one steal in 39 minutes in Thursday’s 112-105 win over the Lakers.

      Advice: All three of Denver’s frontcourt starters accounted for at least 20 points and 10 rebounds, with Jokic finishing one assist shy of a triple-double. The Nuggets have now won the last 11 games they’ve played against the Lakers, and it feels like a matter of “when” they’ll end this series rather than “if.” Game 4 is on Saturday night, and Jokic could once again approach 40 minutes as the Nuggets go for the sweep.

    • Grayson Allen (ankle) questionable Friday
      Grayson Alen (right ankle) is listed as questionable for the Suns’ Friday matchup with the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Allen was dealing with a sprained right ankle ahead of Game 2 and rolled it during play. The Suns wing’s status for Game 3 is up in the air and Eric Gordon will likely take advantage of his absence if he’s ruled out. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:08 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 3
      Allen (ankle) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Timberwolves, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Allen tweaked his right ankle injury during Tuesday's Game 2 but underwent an X-ray after the matchup that came back negative. He practiced in a limited capacity Thursday and was able to run with a water treadmill. He also said that his ankle feels "better than expected." It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Friday's matchup, but it's encouraging that he was able to do some activity Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:52 pm
       
    • James Harden tallies 22 points, eight assists
      James Harden logged 42 minutes in Tuesday’s 96-93 loss to the Mavericks, producing 22 points (6-of-14 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers.

      Advice: While Harden did not miss any of his 2-point attempts in Game 2, he was 2-of-10 from beyond the arc. He wasn’t the only Clippers player to struggle on Tuesday, as they combined to go 8-of-30 from beyond the arc, and Dallas outscored them by a 42-24 margin. Harden was productive in the assist category while committing one turnover, somewhat compensating for the poor 3-point shooting for those competing in DFS tournaments. He’ll look to rebound when the Clippers visit Dallas for Game 3 on Friday. Rotoworld Tuesday, 10:37 pm
       
    • Grayson Allen (ankle) does not return after injury
      Grayson Allen (right ankle sprain) played 17 minutes in Tuesday’s 105-93 loss to the Timberwolves, recording a line of three points (1-of-2 FGs), three rebounds, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 17 minutes.

      Advice: Having sprained his right ankle in Game 1 on Saturday, Allen was initially questionable for Tuesday’s game. Unfortunately, he rolled the ankle early in the third quarter while attempting to block a shot. While the Suns announced that Allen was questionable to return, he never did. The concern now is potential swelling as the team flies to Phoenix for Game 3 on Friday, and Allen may not be a lock to play. Eric Gordon’s minutes increased with Allen sidelined, and he finished with 15 points, three rebounds, one assist, one steal, and three 3-pointers in 23 minutes. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:48 pm
