  • 95-82-3 4th Place
    • Downgraded to out
      Hardaway (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's Game 4 against the Clippers, Eddie Sefko of the Mavericks' official site reports.

      Advice: As expected, Hardaway has been downgraded from doubtful to out due to a right ankle sprain. In Hardaway's absence, Josh Green and Dante Exum are candidates for increased roles, while Jaden Hardy may crack the postseason rotation. Rotowire.com Today, 11:00 am
       
    • Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) out for Game 4 Sunday
      Tim Hardaway Jr. (right ankle sprain) is out for Sunday’s game against the Clippers.

      Advice: Hardaway will miss a second straight game after spraining his ankle during Game 2. Josh Green and Dante Exum will play key roles off the bench, with the former having logged 25 minutes in Game 3. Rotoworld Today, 10:58 am
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) out for Game 4 Sunday
      Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is out for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Giannis remains sidelined, and with Damian Lillard (Achilles) also out, the Bucks will be without their top two scorers for Game 4. Bobby Portis will continue to start, and while he has been solid offensively, Pacers forward Pascal Siakam has flourished on the other end of the floor. Rotoworld Today, 8:54 am
       
    • Downgraded to out
      Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: As expected, Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard (Achilles) have both been downgraded from doubtful to out. Khris Middleton (ankle) remains probable. Bobby Portis should continue to start for Antetokounmpo and will need to play an even larger role on offense due to Lillard missing his first game of the postseason. Antetokounmpo has yet to progress to team drills, but his next chance to suit up will come during Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:35 am
       
    • Stars in Game 4 win
      Wagner finished Saturday's 112-89 win over Cleveland in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 34 points (13-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists and one block in 40 minutes.

      Advice: Wagner didn't score more than 18 points through the first three matchups of the opening-round series but exploded for a game-high 34 in Game 4 and was incredibly efficient. His 34 points marked his most since Feb. 8, and his 13 rebounds were a career high. Wagner struggled mightily with his three-point shot to end the regular season, but he's made at least two triples in three of four postseason games thus far. Rotowire.com Today, 7:43 am
       
    • Doubtful for Game 4
      Antetokounmpo (calf) is doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has been sidelined since missing the final three games of the regular season. Coach Doc Rivers hinted that Antetokounmpo is ramping up towards a return, but he wasn't optimistic about the forward returning for Sunday's contest. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:54 pm
       
    • Doubtful to play in Game 4
      Hardaway is doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 against the Clippers due to a right ankle sprain.

      Advice: Hardaway left Game 2 of the series Tuesday after just six minutes of action and didn't feature in Game 3, so he's been extremely limited in the series. The doubtful tag isn't encouraging ahead of Sunday's contest, but an official announcement should be made closer to Sunday's 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff. Even if he's available, Hardaway would likely come off the bench, and his minutes could be closely monitored given his recent injury issues. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:42 pm
       
    • Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) doubtful to play Game 4
      Tim Hardaway Jr. (right ankle sprain) is listed as doubtful to play in Game 4 against the Clippers on Sunday.

      Advice: THJ missed Game 3 after exiting early from Game 2. Josh Green ended up playing 25 minutes off the bench, while Dante Exum logged 12 minutes. With Hardaway Jr. expected to miss another game, both Green and Exum will play important roles off the bench. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:39 pm
       
    • Franz Wagner drops 34/13/4 in Game 4 win over Cavs
      Franz Wagner led the Magic with 34 points (13-of-17 FGs), 13 rebounds, four assists, one block and two triples in a 112-89 win over Cleveland in Game 4 on Saturday.

      Advice: Wagner took over in the third quarter, scoring 12 points in the period as Orlando outscored the Cavs 37-10. The Magic trailed by nine points at halftime, but they won by 23 because of elite defense and Wagner’s offense. He has been solid in this series, but Wagner played like a true star in this one, which was needed with Paolo Banchero (9 points) struggling. They tied the series up with two convincing wins, and they’ll need to bring some of this offense with them to Cleveland for Game 5 if they want to take a lead in this series. After averaging 84.5 points in the first two games of this series, they have averaged 116.5 over the last two. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:04 pm
