    • Suffered minor injury in loss
      Hartenstein suffered a minor shoulder injury in Sunday's loss, but he should be good to go for Game 5, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

      Advice: Hartenstein was in clear discomfort after taking a fall during Sunday's 121-89 loss to the Pacers, but he was able to continue playing. Following the game, Hartenstein stated he may have pinched a nerve in his shoulder, but reassured that he is fine. The 26-year-old pro finished Sunday's contest with a meager four points (2-3 FG) and five rebounds across 21 minutes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:42 pm
       
    • Nikola Jokic dominates Wolves with 35/7/7/3/1
      Nikola Jokic provided 35 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, three steals, a block and a three-pointer across 39 minutes in Sunday’s victory over Minnesota.

      Advice: Joker led his team in scoring and finished with his most points of this postseason run. He was a bit light on the peripheral contributions (especially for his lofty standards), but Jokic was still masterful across the board as he led his team to a much-needed win to even up the series with Minnesota. Jokic and Co. dropped their first two games of this series at Ball Arena, and after two road wins, they should be fired up for Tuesday’s home date with the Timberwolves. Expect the three-time MVP to deliver another strong performance in the much-anticipated Game 5. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:20 pm
       
    • Karl-Anthony Towns can’t find his shot in Game 4
      Karl-Anthony Towns accounted for 13 points (5-of-18 FG), 12 rebounds, three assists, a steal and a three-pointer across 38 minutes in Sunday’s 115-107 loss to the Nuggets.

      Advice: Towns scored at least 20 points in Games 1 and 2 of the semifinals in Denver, but he failed to eclipse 14 points at home in Games 3 and 4. Towns has been mostly deferential on offense through eight postseason games, averaging 18.5 points on just 11.5 shots per contest. Anthony Edwards has been doing the heavy lifting as a scorer, and Towns has been chipping in as a rebounder and secondary scoring option. He’ll need to be much more efficient than this in Game 5 on Tuesday if Minnesota hopes to reclaim the series lead. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:15 pm
       
    • Aaron Gordon scores 27 on 11-of-12 shooting
      Aaron Gordon finished Sunday’s win over Minnesota with 27 points on 11-of-12 shooting, adding seven rebounds, six assists, a steal, two blocks and a pair of triples across 41 minutes.

      Advice: Gordon had himself a night on Sunday, missing only one shot en route to a monster scoring performance. His 27 points are tied for the second-most in his playoff career, bested only by the 29 he dropped in Game 3 of the first-round series with Los Angeles. Gordon finished behind only Nikola Jokic (35 points) for the team lead in scoring in this one, and the 62 combined points from the two big men fueled Denver to a big win. The semifinal series shifts back to Denver for Game 5 on Tuesday notched up at two games apiece. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:08 pm
       
    • Anthony Edwards drops 44, but Wolves drop Game 4
      Anthony Edwards scored 44 points in Sunday’s loss to Denver, adding five rebounds, five assists, two steals, a block and five three-pointers across 45 minutes.

      Advice: Ant-Man was superhuman yet again, though the rest of his team was more like the Wasp and stung him badly in the loss. Edwards shot an efficient 16-of-25 from the floor, while his teammates combined to shoot 23-of-57 for just 63 points. The next highest scorer on the team was Mike Conley, who chipped in 15, while Karl-Anthony Towns struggled to find his shot, and Naz Reid was given just 19 minutes. Edwards has been absolutely dominant in this season’s playoffs, but he’ll need more from his teammates now that the Western Conference semis are tied up and heading back to Denver for a pivotal Game 5.

    • Jamal Murray, Reggie Jackson, KCP available Sunday
      Jamal Murray (left calf strain), Reggie Jackson (left calf contusion) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (right abdominal contusion) are all available for Sunday’s Game 4 against Minnesota.

      Advice: All three players will be available despite sporting questionable tags heading into Sunday’s pivotal matchup in Minnesota. The Nuggets can even up the series before heading back to Ball Arena, so the availability of the trio is crucial. All three should handle their typical workloads. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Available for Game 4
      Murray (calf) will play in Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

      Advice: Murray has been dealing with a calf injury throughout the series and is yet to miss a game, so it isn't surprising to see him shed another questionable tag. After struggling in the first two games of the series, Murray bounced back in Game 3 with a 24-point outing on solid efficiency, and he will look to carry that momentum over to Sunday's matchup.

    • Available Sunday
      Caldwell-Pope (abdomen) will play in Sunday's Game 4 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope was deemed questionable ahead of gametime due to a right abdominal contusion, but he will suit up for Sunday's matchup. Battling through the same injury in Game 3, Caldwell-Pope logged 37 minutes, so he should be in for a full workload Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:22 pm
       
    • Good to go
      Jackson (calf) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against Minnesota.

      Advice: Jackson will overcome a second consecutive questionable tag to suit up for Sunday's matchup. Jackson has had a limited presence this series as he has battled injury, averaging just 4.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in 10.7 minutes through three games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:19 pm
