    • Grayson Allen (ankle) sidelined Sunday vs. MIN
      Grayson Allen will be sidelined for Sunday’s matchup with the Timberwolves on Sunday.

      Advice: Allen’s absence comes with particularly poor timing, as the Suns are in danger of being swept in Game 4 after falling behind 3-0 in the first-round series against the Wolves. Royce O’Neale and Eric Gordon should see extra minutes with Allen sidelined. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:05 pm
       
    • Unavailable for Game 4
      Allen (ankle) is out for Sunday's Game 4 against the Timberwolves, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

      Advice: Allen was unable to play Friday due to a right ankle sprain that will hold him out again Sunday. Eric Gordon and Royce O'Neale should continue to see expanded roles in Allen's absence. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:53 pm
       
    • Scores only nine points in win
      Banchero racked up nine points (4-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Banchero struggled to find an offensive rhythm and scored his fewest points since Nov. 29, but the Magic still evened the series at 2-2. The budding superstar averaged 25.3 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 37.0 minutes over the first three matchups of the opening-round series and scored in single digits only twice during the regular season.

    • Falls flat in second half
      Mitchell produced 18 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), one rebound, six assists and three steals over 36 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 loss to the Magic in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Mitchell scored all 18 points in the first half and went 0-for-4 from the field with four turnovers in the second half as Orlando cruised to a Game 4 victory, evening the series at 2-2. After totaling 53 points (20-43 FG) through the first two games in Cleveland, Mitchell scored only 31 points during the two losses in Orlando. Through four matchups, Mitchell has shot only 42.5 percent from the field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:21 am
       
    • Comes close to double-double
      Adebayo contributed 20 points (8-18 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes during Saturday's 104-84 loss to the Celtics in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: The Heat were never able to compete with the Celtics in this Game 3 loss, but Adebayo was Miami's most productive player, finishing just one rebound shy of a double-double and leading the team in scoring. It's not surprising to see him operate as one of the Heat's go-to players on offense since Jimmy Butler (knee) is out and not expected back before the end of this series. Adebayo should be in line for another heavy workload in Game 4 on Monday. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:08 pm
       
    • Bam Adebayo leads Heat with 20 points in Game 3
      Bam Adebayo played 39 minutes in Saturday’s 104-84 loss to the Celtics, amassing 20 points (8-of-18 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), nine rebounds, and three assists.

      Advice: Adebayo was the most productive of Miami’s five starters, reaching the 20-point mark for the third time in this series. However, he has yet to record a steal or blocked shot, which is surprising for a player accepted as one of the NBA’s best defenders, regardless of position. In three regular-season meetings between the Heat and Celtics, Adebayo averaged 1.3 steals and 1.7 blocked shots. Miami will need more than points and rebounds from its All-Star center if they’re to even the series at two games apiece on Monday. Rotoworld Saturday, 5:22 pm
       
    • Shai Gilgeous-Alexander turns in 24/5/8/4/1 in G3
      Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the Thunder with 24 points (8-of-20 FGs), five rebounds, eight assists, four steals, one block and one triple in a 106-85 win over New Orleans in Game 3 on Saturday.

      Advice: SGA wasn’t as efficient in this game in comparison to his performances in Games 1 and 2, but he was still able to lead the team in scoring and help them take a commanding 3-0 lead in the series. This was a well-rounded performance for the team, and they’ll have a chance to close out the series in Game 4 on Monday. SGA, who is a finalist for the league’s MVP award, has had a strong start to the postseason, and they’ll need him to keep it up if they want to make any real noise in the playoffs this year.

    • Questionable for Game 4
      Allen (ankle) is questionable for Game 4 against the Timberwolves on Sunday, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

      Advice: Allen didn't play in Game 3 of the series Friday, and his status is unclear, although the questionable tag leaves the door open for a return in what might be the final game of the Suns' season. Allen is averaging just 3.5 points per game while shooting a meager 20 percent from the field in his two appearances during the current series. Rotowire.com Saturday, 1:48 pm
       
    • Grayson Allen (ankle) questionable Sunday
      Grayson Allen (right ankle sprain) is questionable to play in Game 4 against the Timberwolves on Sunday.

      Advice: Allen sat out Game 3, which allowed Royce O’Neale to start in his place. However, Eric Gordon ended up stepping up and logging 34 minutes off the bench. If Allen remains out, both players will have to play important roles to keep this series alive. Rotoworld Saturday, 1:42 pm
