    • Likely out for Game 6
      Anunoby is expected to remain out Friday for the Knicks' Game 6 matchup with the Pacers in the Eastern Conference Semifinals but may return to the lineup thereafter, Brian Windhorst reported Wednesday on ESPN's "Get Up" program. "He's out of the pool and doing some court work for the Knicks," Windhorst said of Anunoby. "If the Knicks advance, the fact that he's already out there on the court and doing some light work makes it a possibility that the Knicks could see him in the Eastern Conference Finals should they get one more victory."

      Advice: Anunoby sounds unlikely to return to action for a potential Game 7 on Sunday if the Pacers were to extend the series with a win Friday, but the 26-year-old looks like he could be ready to go for the start of a conference final series with the Celtics or Cavaliers if his hamstring responds well to on-court work. After Precious Achiuwa had started in place of Anunoby in Games 3 and 4, Miles McBride entered the starting five for the Knicks' Game 5 win as part of a small-ball lineup.

    • Masterful performance in win
      Jokic supplied 40 points (15-22 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-9 FT), seven rebounds, 13 assists, one block and two steals over 41 minutes during Tuesday's 112-97 victory over the Timberwolves in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Jokic took over during Game 5, leading the Nuggets to a third consecutive victory over the Timberwolves. Despite going up against the Defensive Player of the Year, Jokic had no issues getting what he wanted around the basket and finished with a playoff-high 40 points. The series will head back to Minnesota where Jokic and the Nuggets will look to wrap things up Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:51 pm
       
    • Unstoppable: Nikola Jokic goes off for 40 points
      Nikola Jokic played 40 minutes in Tuesday’s 112-97 win over Minnesota, tallying 40 points (15-of-22 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), seven rebounds, 13 assists, two steals, one block, and two 3-pointers.

      Advice: For the first time in this series, the home team won. And Jokic was the deciding factor, as Minnesota had no answer for him in Game 5. The Joker became the second player in NBA postseason history to finish a game with at least 40 points, 10 assists, and no turnovers, joining Chris Paul (2018). On the night he received his third Most Valuable Player trophy, Jokic showed the basketball world why he was bestowed that honor. He and the Nuggets will look to wrap up the series on Thursday night in Minneapolis. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:08 pm
       
    • Likely out for remainder of series
      Anunoby (hamstring) is targeting a return for the Eastern Conference Finals, per Chris Haynes on TNT's NBA Tip-Off broadcast.

      Advice: Anunoby is already set to miss his third straight game Tuesday due to a left hamstring strain and now appears likely to miss the remainder of the series against Indiana. If the Knicks are able to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, Anunoby should reclaim his starting spot. However, Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa will likely continue to receive increased playing time in his absence. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:34 pm
       
    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) progresses to on-court work
      Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said before Tuesday’s Game 5 against the Pacers that OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) has progressed to doing some on-court rehab work.

      Advice: Injured during the third quarter of the Knicks’ Game 2 victory, Anunoby has not played since. He was already ruled out for Game 5, and the progression to on-court work is progress. However, he still is not a full go, so it appears to be a long shot that Anunoby will be available for Game 6 on Thursday. Precious Achiuwa will remain in the starting lineup, with Miles McBride playing additional minutes off the bench. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:42 pm
       
    • Progressing in recovery
      Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau said that Anunoby (hamstring) -- who remains out for Tuesday's Game 5 matchup with the Pacers in the Eastern Conference semifinal round, has been getting in some "light work on the court," Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

      Advice: Anunoby will miss his third straight game due to a left hamstring strain. While the 26-year-old forward is progressing in his recovery, his status for Game 6 on Friday is in doubt. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:28 pm
       
    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) out again for Game 5
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring) will remain sidelined for Game 5 against Indiana on Tuesday.

      Advice: Unsurprisingly, Anunoby will remain sidelined for another game of this series. There were reports that suggested this might be the case, and now it’s official. It’s unclear if he could return for Game 6, but Precious Achiuwa should continue to start until OG is back. Rotoworld Monday, 2:34 pm
       
    • Will miss Game 5
      Anunoby (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Anunoby will miss a third straight game due to a left hamstring strain. After winning the first two matchups of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, the Knicks have lost back-to-back games without Anunoby. Precious Achiuwa should continue to start at power forward, while Anunoby's next chance to suit up will come Friday in Game 6. Over the weekend, Anunoby was able to get a pool workout in, but he hasn't resumed running yet. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:33 pm
       
    • Carries Denver to even series
      Jokic ended Sunday's 115-107 win over the Timberwolves in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 35 points (15-26 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and three steals in 39 minutes.

      Advice: Aaron Gordon had an excellent showing and Jamal Murray made some clutch buckets throughout the game, but Jokic was the engine that kept the team going. For the second game in a row, he came through whenever Denver needed him the most. Jokic is expected to lead the Nuggets as the series returns to Denver for a pivotal Game 5 on Tuesday, and he's averaging 26.8 points, 11.3 rebounds and 8.3 assists per game in the series.
