    • Devin Booker leads Phoenix with 18 points Tuesday
      Devin Booker logged 42 minutes in Tuesday’s 105-93 loss to the Timberwolves, accumulating 20 points (6-of-13 FGs, 7-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: Booker fouled out of Game 2, but the outcome was no longer in doubt at that point. He did lead the Suns in scoring, but, as was the case in the series opener on Saturday, efficiency was a problem. Booker committing six turnovers was more concerning than the field-goal percentage, with the Suns recording 19 as a team. Bradley Beal wasn’t much better, as he was responsible for four to go along with 14 points (6-of-17 FGs), four rebounds, six assists, and two 3-pointers in 42 minutes. Phoenix will need more from both guards to win Game 3 on Friday. Rotoworld Tuesday, 8:00 pm
       
    • Goes for 22 points in Game 2
      Porter totaled 22 points (8-13 FG, 6-10 3Pt), nine rebounds, one assist and two steals in 38 minutes during Monday's 101-99 victory over the Lakers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Porter sniffed a double-double for the second consecutive game after delivering a 19-point, eight-rebound effort in Game 1 on Saturday, and the forward continues to impact both ends of the court for Denver. Even though he doesn't get the same attention as Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray, Porter is a key piece in the Nuggets' offensive scheme, and he's averaging 16.2 points with 7.3 rebounds per game in April, including regular-season contests.

    • Does little in loss
      Oubre logged four points (2-7 FG), two rebounds, three assists and three blocks across 26 minutes during Monday's 104-101 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Oubre's unproductive evening marked his second consecutive subpar performance in the quarterfinals. He joined a mediocre group of starters who scored only 22 points compared to the 69 points accrued by Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Improved stat lines from Oubre will be necessary for the Sixers to even the series at home. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:37 am
       
    • Michael Porter Jr. hits six 3-pointers, scores 22
      Michael Porter Jr. amassed 22 points (8-of-13 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist, two steals, and six 3-pointers in 38 minutes in Monday’s 101-99 win over the Lakers.

      Advice: While Jamal Murray got hot in the fourth quarter, he shot 3-of-16 from the field in the first three periods of Game 2. Porter was one of the Nuggets who helped keep the team afloat, as Denver trailed by as much as 20 before rallying to take a 2-0 series lead. With the amount of attention the Lakers devote to Murray and Nikola Jokic, Porter and Aaron Gordon (14/7/3 in 40 minutes) will have opportunities to score. MPJ stepped up in a big way and was one of the unsung heroes in Game 2. The Nuggets head to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Thursday night. Rotoworld Monday, 9:58 pm
       
    • Owns glass in double-double showing
      Zubac logged 20 points (10-17 FG, 0-1 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 109-97 victory over the Mavericks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Zubac led all players in rebounds while ending as one of three Clippers with 20 or more points in a double-double showcase. Zubac posted four games during the regular season with 15 or more rebounds, adding 20 or more points in one of those outings. Los Angeles will look for Zubac to continue to own the battle in the paint this series while also providing a much-needed spark offensively in a favorable matchup against Dallas.

    • Ivica Zubac posts 20-point double-double vs. LAC
      Ivica Zubac registered 20 points (10-of-17 FGs) with 15 rebounds, one assist, one steal, and a block.

      Advice: Zubac was dominant in the painted area as a scorer and rebounder. Dallas had no answer for the big man and he has a chance to consistently cause problems for the Mavericks’ frontcourt. Rotoworld Sunday, 3:43 pm
       
    • Ignites offense
      McBride logged 21 points (7-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Saturday's 111-104 win over the 76ers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: McBride boomed for 16 points in the first half, fueled by sharp shooting from beyond the arc. McBride had more to his bag though, as he also hit a tough running layup high off the glass over Paul Reed to give the Knicks the lead midway through the fourth quarter. McBride's stellar defense and season-long 41.0 percent clip on 3.9 threes per game have him locked into a postseason rotation role. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:17 am
       
    • Deuce on the loose: Miles McBride scores 21 in win
      Miles McBride put up 21 points, three boards, four dimes, a steal and five three-pointers across 28 minutes on Saturday in a 111-104 win over Philadelphia.

      Advice: McBride cooked in the first half, dropping 16 points and hitting 4-of-5 shots from beyond the arc. He finished the game behind only Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart (22 points apiece) for team lead in the scoring department, and Deuce scored half of New York’s bench points. The Knicks’ bench bested Philly’s bench 42-7 on offense, which was crucial in such a tight game. The West Virginia product averaged a career-best 8.3 points and 1.6 triples in 19.5 minutes this season, but he’s been stellar when given additional minutes and responsibilities.

    • Devin Booker struggles, finishes with 18 points
      Devin Booker played 38 minutes in Saturday’s 120-95 loss to the Timberwolves, accumulating 18 points (5-of-16 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), two rebounds, five assists, one steal, and two 3-pointers.

      Advice: Minnesota’s significant adjustment from Sunday’s regular-season finale was to pick up the Suns’ guards full court to exploit the team’s lack of a “traditional” point guard. While Booker only committed one turnover, the approach threw him off his rhythm offensively. The Suns don’t have a reliable point guard to potentially step in for Grayson Allen (ankle) if he can’t play in Tuesday’s Game 2, so it will be on Booker (and Bradley Beal) to shift the momentum after a disappointing Game 1.
