  • Considered probable
    Middleton (ankle) is probable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers.

    Advice: Middleton sprained his right ankle in Game 2 but continues to play through the pain and will likely do so again Thursday. Over the last three matchups, Middleton has carried the Bucks, averaging 32.0 points, 10.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 40.3 minutes per game. With Damian Lillard (calf) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) both doubtful, Middleton should be in store for a hefty workload during Game 6. Rotowire.com Today, 2:35 pm
     
  • Questionable for Thursday's game
    Haliburton (back) is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against Milwaukee.

    Advice: Haliburton has also been on the injury report ahead of the last two matchups but suited up and averaged 20.0 points, 5.0 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 33.0 minutes per game over those appearances. If he's available again Thursday as the Pacers attempt to clinch the series, he'll likely be able to handle a sizable workload. Rotowire.com Today, 2:33 pm
     
  • Listed as doubtful again
    Lillard (Achilles) is doubtful for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Advice: Lillard is listed as doubtful for a third straight matchup after aggravating a right Achilles injury during Game 3. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is also doubtful, so Bobby Portis and Malik Beasley should remain in the starting lineup. The Bucks had a valiant effort in Game 5 at home to extend the series, led by Portis and Khris Middleton (ankle), but they still need to win back-to-back games to advance to the second round.

  • Doubtful for Game 6
    Antetokounmpo (calf) is doubtful for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Advice: Although the Bucks managed to keep their season alive Tuesday, they'll likely have to play without Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard (Achilles) once again as the series shifts back to Indiana on Thursday. Assuming he's unavailable for Game 6, it's unclear whether Antetokounmpo will be in the mix to return for a potential Game 7. Rotowire.com Today, 2:29 pm
     
  • Jericho Sims (shoulder) active Thursday vs. 76ers
    Jericho Sims (right shoulder inflammation) is listed as active for the Knicks’ Thursday matchup against the 76ers.

  • Mitchell Robinson (ankle) questionable Thursday
    Mitchell Robinson (left ankle sprain) is listed as questionable for Thursday’s Knicks-76ers game.

    Advice: Mitchell Robinson is on the injury report after his defensive masterclass in Game 5. The Knicks big man amassed three steals and two blocks. It appears like he could split New York’s center minutes down the middle with Isaiah Hartenstein if he’s healthy for Game 6. Rotoworld Today, 2:07 pm
     
  • Questionable for Game 6
    Robinson (ankle) is questionable ahead of Thursday's Game 6 matchup with the 76ers.

    Advice: Robinson missed Game 4 due to an ankle issue but returned for Game 5 and logged 25 minutes. The big man has averaged 3.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.5 blocks and 1.0 steals in 21.3 minutes during the opening-round series. Rotowire.com Today, 1:41 pm
     
  • Questionable for Game 6
    Embiid (knee) is questionable for Game 6 against the Knicks on Thursday.

    Advice: Embiid has been listed as questionable for every game in this series so far, but he's yet to miss a game, so he feels much closer to probable. While the reigning MVP hasn't looked 100 percent, he continues to stuff the stat sheet and has averaged 31.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 steals in 41.8 minutes.

  • Luka Doncic (knee) active Wednesday vs. Clippers
    Luka Doncic (sprained right knee) is listed as active for Wednesday’s Mavericks-Clippers matchup.

    Advice: Doncic is set to suit up despite dealing with a knee injury and an illness. He’s fresh off a 29-point triple-double and will likely continue carrying a heavy workload. Rotoworld Today, 12:04 pm
