    • Karl-Anthony Towns records double-double in 24 min
      Karl-Anthony Towns recorded a double-double on Friday with 18 points (7-of-16 FGs), 13 rebounds, two assists and three 3-pointers against the Suns in Game 3.

      Advice: KAT dealt with some foul trouble early in this game, which limited him to just 24 minutes of playing time. However, he was still able to turn in an effective stat line. He has committed 12 fouls in three games despite averaging just 25 minutes per game. They’re still monitoring his minutes after his extended absence, but he should play more if he stays out of foul trouble. It hasn’t hurt them yet, but it isn’t something that he can continue to do in the next round, where they’ll likely face off against Denver, barring the first ever 3-0 comeback in NBA history.

    • Kawhi Leonard (knee) limited to 25 minutes in G3
      Kawhi Leonard only played 25 minutes on Friday and finished with nine points (4-of-7 FGs), nine rebounds and two assists against the Mavericks in Game 3.

      Advice: After the game, head coach Tyronn Lue said that Kawhi is “still dealing with knee inflammation that the team has to manage”. He also said that he believes that Leonard will be able to suit up for Game 4 on Sunday. It would be surprising if he wasn’t at least on the injury report, and he clearly isn’t 100%. Healthy superstars simply don’t play 25 minutes in a playoff game. If he isn’t able to play like a star, it’s hard to imagine them advancing to the second round. Hopefully this isn’t another “what if” year for the Clippers because of injuries, but it is starting to feel that way. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:30 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic turns in 22/10/9/2 line in Game 3 win
      Luka Doncic led Dallas with 22 points (7-of-25 FGs), 10 rebounds, nine assists, two steals, three triples and five turnovers in a 101-90 win over the Clippers in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: After shooting 11-of-26 in each of his first two games of this series, Luka’s shooting was slightly worse in this game. However, they were still able to get the win and take a 2-1 lead in the series. Doncic played through plenty of contact from Russell Westbrook in this game, and he still nearly recorded a triple-double. Game 4 is on Sunday, and they’ll have a chance to take a 3-1 lead in the series. This team will go as far as Luka takes them, and he’ll need to shoot better thant his moving forward.

    • Briefly leaves Game 3
      Doncic briefly left Friday's Game 3 versus the Clippers with 3:01 remaining in the first quarter with an apparent right knee issue, but he returned with 12 seconds to play in the quarter, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.

      Advice: Doncic had a significant limp when he checked out of the game and went to the locker room. He put a brace on his right knee when he returned to the bench but quickly removed it before checking back into the game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:50 pm
       
    • Kawhi Leonard (knee) active Friday vs. Mavericks
      Kawhi Leonard (right knee inflammation) is listed as active for the Clippers’ Friday meeting with the Mavericks.

      Advice: Leonard was underwhelming in his first playoff game of the year but will run it back on Friday after scoring just 15 points in a Game 2 loss. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:48 pm
       
    • Good to go for Game 3
      Leonard (knee) is available for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

      Advice: After missing Sunday's Game 1 win due to knee inflammation, Leonard returned for Game 2 on Tuesday and put up 15 points, seven rebounds, four steals, two assists and a block in 35 minutes during a 96-93 loss, marking his first appearance since March 31. With the series tied at 1-1, Leonard's health and impact will be key to the Clippers' success. Despite suiting up for back-to-back games, the questionable tag may stick with Leonard for the rest of the postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:35 pm
       
    • Present at shootaround
      Leonard (knee), who is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, was present for the Clippers' morning shootaround, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Leonard returned from a nine-game absence during Tuesday's matchup against Dallas and continues to deal with knee inflammation ahead of Friday's game. However, his presence at shootaround is encouraging, and he appears to be trending in the right direction in the hours leading up to tipoff. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:11 am
       
    • Goes for 22 points Thursday
      Murray contributed 22 points (8-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and one block in 41 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 win over the Lakers in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Murray didn't have his best shooting performance after needing 21 shots to score 22 points, but he compensated for the lack of efficiency with his nine assists. He's reached the 20-point mark in the first three games of the series against the Lakers, but the lack of efficiency has been a problem, as he's made just 37.7 percent of his field-goal attempts so far.

    • Jamal Murray produces 22 points, nine assists
      Jamal Murray finished Thursday’s Game 3 win over the Lakers with 22 points (8-of-21 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, nine assists, one block, and one 3-pointer in 41 minutes.

      Advice: Murray hasn’t shot the ball well in this series, making less than 38% of his attempts in all three games, but that hasn’t mattered. He’s still scored at least 20 points in each, and the Nuggets hold a 3-0 lead in the series. While the fourth quarter was when Murray went off in Game 2, it was the second and third frames when he did his handiwork on Thursday. In those periods, he shot 8-of-15 from the field, which Denver won by a combined score of 60-42. Murray and the Nuggets will look to end the series on Saturday night. Rotoworld Thursday, 10:06 pm
