    • Deemed questionable for Game 1
      Conley (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals versus the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Conley continues to deal with a right soleus strain but has suited up in each of Minnesota's last two contests. The veteran guard played 38 minutes in Game 7 against Denver, so he will likely be set for a full workload if he's upgraded to available. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
       
    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) probable for Game 1 Wed.
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Despite ankle and knee injuries, Doncic has not missed a game this postseason. That trend should continue for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Wednesday, which would be good for DFS players who want to slot him into their lineups. In two games against Minnesota during the regular season, Doncic averaged 36.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 10.5 assists, 1.5 steals, 3.5 3-pointers, and 5.5 turnovers. Rotoworld Today, 2:42 pm
       
    • Likely to play Wednesday
      Doncic (knee/ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Doncic continues to deal with a right knee sprain and left ankle soreness but has yet to miss a game these playoffs. The superstar guard is averaging 42.1 minutes per contest across his 12 appearances this postseason. Rotowire.com Today, 2:39 pm
       
    • Poor offensive showing Sunday
      Caldwell-Pope racked up five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope scored single digits for the sixth time in the past eight games, highlighting the Nuggets' struggles when it comes to depth on the offensive end. While he continues to play a key role for Denver, his lack of production cannot be ignored when it comes to fantasy value. Looking ahead to next season, there is no reason to think he will be anything more than a situational streamer, utilized for steals and threes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:01 am
       
    • Scores game-high 35 points
      Murray provided 35 points (13-27 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and three assists over 43 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 loss to Minnesota in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Murray did everything he could to get the Nuggets over the line but ultimately came up short. He and Nikola Jokic scored 69 of the Nuggets' 90 points, highlighting just how unimpactful their bench was. While it was a disappointing end for Murray, his production this year aligned with what fantasy managers expected coming into the season. Given they will likely be contending again next season, there is no reason to think anything changes from a fantasy perspective in 2024-25. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:58 am
       
    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope posts 5/6/3/2/1 line Sun.
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope played 40 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Timberwolves, tallying five points (2-of-7 FGs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: After hitting four 3-pointers and scoring 16 points in Game 5, Caldwell-Pope ended his season with a whimper. In Denver’s losses to the Timberwolves in games 6 and 7, KCP scored 14 points on 4-of-13 shooting from the field (3-10 3-pointers). The veteran guard has been a mainstay in the Nuggets starting lineup, providing solid fantasy value. Caldwell-Pope finished this season ranked just outside the top 100 in 9-cat formats, but few fantasy managers are willing to roll the dice on him that early in drafts. KCP had a Yahoo ADP of 139.6, and that’s unlikely to change in 2024-25. Rotoworld Sunday, 8:42 pm
       
    • Jamal Murray scores 35 points in Game 7 defeat
      Jamal Murray shot 13-of-27 from the field and 5-of-5 from the foul line in Sunday’s 98-90 loss to Minnesota, scoring 35 points with three rebounds, three assists, and four 3-pointers in 43 minutes.

      Advice: Murray came out scalding hot on Sunday, scoring 24 points in the first half. However, he cooled off considerably after halftime, and the lack of consistent help from Denver’s supporting cast doomed the Nuggets. Murray, who had a Yahoo ADP of 41.2, finished the regular season as a 3rd-round player in 9-cat formats. The negative was his availability, as injuries limited Murray to 59 games. It would benefit fantasy managers if he can get to (or above) 65 games played. Murray is in for a busy offseason, as he said after Game 7 that he has committed to playing for Team Canada at the Paris Olympics in July. Rotoworld Sunday, 8:10 pm
       
    • Anthony Edwards limited to 16 points in Game 7 win
      Anthony Edwards shot 6-of-24 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Sunday’s 98-90 win over Denver, finishing with 16 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and two 3-pointers in 44 minutes.

      Advice: On Sunday, Edwards got off to a brutal start, shooting 1-of-7 from the field in the first half. He was better in the third quarter, but give Ant-Man credit for not letting his offensive struggles impact his defense. He defended Jamal Murray well in the second half, and multiple members of Minnesota’s “supporting cast” stepped up offensively. Backcourt partner Mike Conley added 10 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals, and three 3-pointers in 39 minutes. Next up for Minnesota is Dallas in the Western Conference Finals; Game 1 is on Wednesday. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:57 pm
