    • Naz Reid hits seven 3-pointers, scores 23 points
      Naz Reid shot 8-of-13 from the field in Friday’s 109-108 loss to the Mavericks, accounting for 23 points, two rebounds, two steals, one block, and seven 3-pointers in 32 minutes.

      Advice: With Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns again struggling, Reid was the Timberwolves player who upped his production in Game 2. The NBA Sixth Man of the Year hit seven of his first eight 3-point attempts and had a chance to save the Mavericks in the final seconds. Unfortunately for the Timberwolves, Reid’s final attempt rattled out, and they now head to Dallas in an 0-2 hole. Reid scored 38 points on 59.1% shooting from the field in the first two games, and Minnesota will need similar production in Game 3. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:31 pm
       
    • Daniel Gafford tallies 16 points, five blocks
      Daniel Gafford was excellent in his 21 minutes in Friday’s 109-108 win over Minnesota, amassing 16 points (8-of-10 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, and five blocked shots.

      Advice: Like Game 1, Gafford played fewer minutes than backup Dereck Lively II on Friday. However, that didn’t prevent him from having an impact, especially defensively. Gafford blocked five shots while also shooting 80% from the field, excellently finishing around the basket in the two-man game. As for Lively, he played 27 minutes in Game 2, finishing with 14 points, nine rebounds, and two assists. The rookie did not miss a shot, going 6-of-6 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line. Dallas’ big man tag team will look to keep the momentum rolling when they host Game 3 on Sunday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:23 pm
       
    • Sitting out Game 2
      Prosper (ankle) won't play in Friday's matchup with the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Prosper hasn't been available since Game 3 of the Mavericks' first-round series with the Clippers after spraining his left ankle in a practice leading up to that contest. The rookie first-round pick hadn't been a regular part of the rotation during the regular season, so his continued absence should go largely unnoticed. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:29 am
       
    • Posts 23 points in Game 2 victory
      Tatum posted 23 points (9-20 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and five assists across 42 minutes during Thursday's 126-110 victory over the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Tatum endured a slow start in this game, but he improved as the contest progressed, and the star forward ended with a solid stat line even though his shot wasn't falling, particularly from three-point range. Tatum has surpassed the 20-point mark in each of his last six playoff appearances and should continue to lead the Celtics on offense when the series shifts to Indiana for Game 3 on Saturday.

    • Leads way in scoring Thursday
      Siakam registered 28 points (13-17 FG, 2-2 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes during Thursday's 126-110 loss to the Celtics in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Siakam was Indiana's best player by a wide margin, as he missed just four of his 17 shots and also made his presence felt on the glass in a game during which the Pacers looked outmatched in terms of physicality and intensity. Siakam should remain one of Indiana's primary offensive weapons in Game 3, and he would be in line for an even more prominent role if Tyrese Haliburton (leg) doesn't play Saturday.

    • Pascal Siakam leads Pacers with 28 points in loss
      Pascal Siakam led Indiana with 28 points (13-of-17 FGs), five rebounds, two assists and two triples in a 126-110 loss to the Celtics in Game 2 on Thursday.

      Advice: Siakam did everything he could to keep Indiana around in this game, but it didn’t end up being enough. Siakam has played really well recently and has now scored at least 20 points in five straight games, which includes the first two games of this series. That wasn’t enough to get a win in Boston, but with Tyrese Haliburton dealing with a left hamstring injury, Siakam may be forced to take on even more responsibility moving forward. This was his highest scoring performance of this postseason, and he’ll need to do even more moving forward. Rotoworld Thursday, 8:17 pm
       
    • Out for Game 2
      Kleber (shoulder) won't play Friday in Game 2 of the Mavericks' Western Conference Finals series with the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Kleber remains without an official timetable to return from the right AC joint separation he sustained earlier this month. The Mavericks haven't indicated whether Kleber has a chance at playing in the series, but his status will continue to be evaluated on a game-by-game basis. Rotowire.com Thursday, 4:47 pm
       
    • Xavier Tillman (personal) active Thursday
      Xavier Tillman (personal reasons) is listed as active for Thursday’s Game 2 matchup between the Celtics and Pacers.

      Advice: Tillman wasn’t with his team for Game 1 because of personal reasons but will be available on Thursday. The reserve big man might give Boston some spot minutes off the pine but isn’t expected to play a significant role. Rotoworld Thursday, 10:04 am
       
    • Available for Game 2
      Tillman (personal) is available for Thursday's Game 2 against the Pacers, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

      Advice: The reserve big has seen limited action throughout the playoffs, appearing in just three games -- one against Miami and two against Cleveland. With Kristaps Porzingis (calf) expected to be sidelined until at least Game 4, Al Horford has been seeing extended minutes. It's possible Tillman will be thrown into action in hopes of giving Horford some more rest time. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:30 am
