    • Al Horford to start NBA Finals opener Thursday
      Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and Al Horford will start Thursday’s game against the Mavericks.

      Advice: Horford will remain in the starting lineup for Game 1 in a move that may surprise some. Kristaps Porzingis, who has been sidelined since injuring his calf during Game 3 of Boston’s first-round series against Miami, will come off the bench in his first game back. The last time Porzingis came off the bench in a game, regular season or playoffs: , as a member of the Knicks. Rotoworld Today, 5:11 pm
       
    • Available for Game 1 of Finals
      Prosper (ankle) is available for Game 1 of the 2024 NBA Finals against the Celtics on Thursday.

      Advice: Prosper used the break between the Conference Finals and the NBA Finals to recover from his injury, and he's ready to step on the hardwood for the first time since April 21. He's logged just one minute this postseason, so he's not expected to play a prominent role in the series. Rotowire.com Today, 4:36 pm
       
    • Olivier-Maxence Prosper (ankle) active Thursday
      Olivier-Maxence Prosper (left ankle sprain) is available for Thursday’s NBA Finals opener against Boston.

      Advice: Prosper has been sidelined since Game 1 of Dallas’ first-round series against the Clippers. The rookie wasn’t a consistent rotation member during the regular season, so there’s no need to consider O-Max for DFS lineups. Rotoworld Today, 4:36 pm
       
    • Olivier-Maxence Prosper (ankle) questionable Thur.
      Olivier-Maxence Prosper (left ankle sprain) is questionable for Thursday’s NBA Finals opener against the Celtics.

      Advice: Prosper, a rookie who appeared in 40 regular season games, has been sidelined since Game 1 of Dallas’ first-round series against the Clippers. If available for Game 1 of the NBA Finals, O-Max is unlikely to get the minutes needed to impact DFS tournaments. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:37 pm
       
    • Upgraded to questionable
      Prosper (ankle) is questionable for Game 1 of the NBA Finals against Boston on Thursday, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

      Advice: Prosper has been ruled out ahead of every postseason game thus far, so his upgrade to questionable is noteworthy. While he's unlikely to play a significant role in the NBA Finals, the rookie could be another body to throw at Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, as Prosper's 6-foot-7 frame allows him to wreak havoc defensively.

    • Playoff woes amid uncertainty
      Anderson averaged 4.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.3 blocks across 15.3 minutes in 15 playoff appearances.

      Advice: Anderson will be an unrestricted free agent this season, and his future in Minnesota is currently unclear. The 30-year-old averaged 6.4 points, 4.2 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.6 blocks across 79 regular-season games, a slight decline from just a year before. However, the veteran wing could be useful for many contending teams and is bound to have several suitors this offseason. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:30 am
       
    • Kyle Anderson hopes to return to Minnesota
      During his season-ending media availability, pending free agent forward Kyle Anderson said he hopes to remain with the Timberwolves.

      Advice: A reliable option off the bench for the Timberwolves, Anderson will be an unrestricted free agent this summer. In 79 games, SloMo averaged 6.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.6 blocks in 22.6 minutes, shooting 46.0% from the field and 70.8% from the foul line. Anderson hopes that he and the Timberwolves come to terms on a new deal, with the fit being good on and off the court. “My family’s here,” Anderson said on Friday. “My son is on the spectrum. He’s doing really well here in the Minnesota school system, and his development is really key. And he’s doing so well, so, you know, that plays a part into it.” While he will have value among playoff-caliber teams, Anderson’s decision is unlikely to impact fantasy basketball significantly.

    • Struggles with efficiency
      Anderson provided seven points (3-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Thursday's 124-103 loss to the Mavericks in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Anderson's 33 minutes played in Game 5 were his highest of the series, largely due to his role in guarding Luka Doncic. Anderson will end the Western Conference Finals averaging 7.4 points, 3.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 22.4 minutes across the five contests. The 30-year-old forward will head into the offseason as an unrestricted free agent. Anderson's future in Minnesota is uncertain as he went from averaging 28.4 minutes across 69 appearances, including 46 starts in 2022-23, to 22.6 minutes across 79 appearances, just 10 of which were starts, in 2023-24.

    • Still sidelined for Game 5
      Prosper (ankle) has been ruled out for Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals against Minnesota on Thursday.

      Advice: Prosper continues to deal with an ankle injury and will be unavailable for a 16th consecutive game. It's unclear when he'll be able to return. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 1:51 pm
