  • 114-66-0 6th Place
    • Available to play
      Anderson (hip) is available for Friday's Game 3 versus the Suns, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

      Advice: Fantasy managers should exercise caution before plugging Anderson into lineups, as the forward didn't touch the floor despite being cleared to play in Game 2. It remains to be seen if he'll rejoin the rotation for Game 3. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:06 pm
       
    • Kyle Anderson (hip) cleared to play in Game 3
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) will play against the Suns in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: Slo Mo was available to play in Game 2 after getting injured in Game 1, but he didn’t end up seeing the floor at all. We’ll see if Chris Finch uses him in this one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:04 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 Yesterday, 10:26 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 Yesterday, 8:33 am
       
    • D’Angelo Russell goes scoreless in Game 3 loss
      D’Angelo Russell missed all seven of his shot attempts in Thursday’s 112-105 loss to the Nuggets, going scoreless with three rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one blocked shot in 24 minutes.

      Advice: After bouncing back from a mediocre Game 1 with a quality effort in Game 2, there was hope that Russell could build on that 23-point night. That did not happen; he was 0-of-6 from three and 0-of-7 from the field overall. Due to his struggles, Russell lost minutes to Spencer Dinwiddie, who logged 22 and finished with eight points, two rebounds, and three assists. With the Lakers needing a win on Saturday to extend their season, it would be unsurprising if Darvin Ham did not wait long to pull Russell if he doesn’t have it. If that happens, Dinwiddie and Gabe Vincent (four points, four rebounds in 20 minutes) will play more minutes. Rotoworld Thursday, 10:33 pm
       
    • Kyle Anderson (hip) questionable for Game 3 Friday
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Suns.

      Advice: While it was announced that Anderson was available for Tuesday’s Game 2, he did not play. Nickeil Alexander-Walker benefitted the most regarding playing time, as he logged 31 minutes off the bench. Expect a similar scenario if Anderson does not play in Game 3.

    • Questionable for Friday
      Anderson (hip) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 versus the Suns, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

      Advice: Anderson was cleared to play in Game 2 with this same right hip issue, but he never saw the floor. Instead, Nickeil Alexander-Walker played 31 minutes off the bench as Minnesota tightened up its rotation. Rotowire.com Thursday, 4:59 pm
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) doubtful Friday
      Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is listed as doubtful for the Bucks’ Friday matchup with the Pacers.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo still hasn’t made his 2024 NBA Playoffs debut and it appears like he’ll miss his team’s first road game of its series against Indiana ahead of the weekend. Bobby Portis will likely continue to start for Antetokounmpo. Rotoworld Thursday, 1:41 pm
       
    • Doubtful for Friday
      Antetokounmpo (calf) is doubtful for Friday's Game 3 against Indiana.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has been putting up shots in recent days but hadn't yet resumed running or cutting as of Wednesday. As a result, he'll likely be unavailable for a sixth consecutive game due to his calf issue. Assuming he's sidelined, his next chance to suit up will be in Sunday's Game 4.
