    • Eric Gordon chips in 11/2/3/3/1 line off bench
      Eric Gordon provided a boost off the bench with 11 points (2-of-7 FGs), two rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and two triples against the Timberwolves on Friday.

      Advice: With Grayson Allen sidelined with an ankle injury, Gordon took on a larger role off the bench and ended up providing them with a nice scoring boost. He also gave them some defensive production, which isn’t characteristic for Gordon. If Allen is back on Sunday for Game 4, EG will lose out on minutes. He averaged 22 minutes across the first two games, but he had to play 34 minutes in Game 3. However, if Allen remains out, Gordon will be asked to take on more minutes once again.

    • Anthony Edwards scores 36, Timberwolves go up 3-0
      Anthony Edwards led Minnesota with 36 points (12-of-23 FGs, 11-of-11 FTs), nine rebounds, five assists, two steals, one triple and five turnovers in a 126-109 win over Phoenix in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: After struggling in their Game 2 win, Edwards got back on track in this one. This was his highest-scoring game of the series, though it doesn’t match his playoff career-high of 41, which he set last year. Minnesota is now in complete control of the series, and they’ll look to close it out and advance to the next round on Sunday, where they’ll likely take on the Nuggets. Edwards isn’t the type of player that takes his foot off the gas, so expect him to have another big game in Game 4. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:34 pm
       
    • Bobby Portis records 17/18 double-double in Game 3
      Bobby Portis recorded a double-double on Friday with 17 points (7-of-15 FGs), 18 rebounds, one steal, one block and one triple against Indiana.

      Advice: Portis, who was a finalist for the league’s Sixth Man of the Year award, has played really well as the starting power forward in place of Giannis Antetokounmpo, and that continued in this game. He has recorded a double-double in all three games of this series, but this was by far his best outing. Giannis isn’t expected to play in this series, so Portis should continue to start. They’ll need him to continue to play to this level if they want to tie this series back up in Game 4 on Sunday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:01 pm
       
    • Nears 30 points despite injury
      Lillard posted 28 points (6-20 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 12-12 FT), eight assists, three steals and one rebound over 45 minutes in Friday's 121-118 overtime loss to Indiana in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Despite leaving Friday's game briefly with a knee injury, Lillard finished the Game 3 contest and led all Bucks players in assists while ending two points shy of the 30-point mark to provide a boost offensively in a losing effort. Lillard, who was perfect from the free-throw line to go along with a team-high-tying mark from three, has posted at least 28 points in all three games of the first round. It will be worth monitoring Lillard's status ahead of Game 4 given his brief exit Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:01 pm
       
    • Owns glass in double-double showing
      Portis finished with 17 points (7-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 18 rebounds, one block and one steal over 44 minutes in Friday's 121-118 overtime loss to Indiana in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Portis dominated the boards in Friday's contest, leading all players in rebounds while finishing as one of two Bucks with a double-double in a losing effort in overtime. Portis has stepped in nicely while Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) continues to miss time, recording a double-double in all three games in the first-round series thus far. Portis will likely continue to remain in the starting lineup until Antetokounmpo is able to return, and he would become a key player off Milwaukee's bench if the two-time MVP does come back at some point in the series against Indiana.

    • Damian Lillard shrugs off early injury, scores 28
      Damian Lillard struggled with his shot but still finished with 28 points (6-of-20 FGs, 12-of-12 FTs), one rebound, eight assists, three steals and four 3-pointers against Indiana in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: Lillard exited briefly during the first quarter because of an injury, but he came back quickly and was able to finish out the game. The Bucks can’t afford another injury, since they’ll likely be without Giannis Antetokounmpo for the entire first round. Dame struggled with his shot, and he was clearly banged up at the end of the game. Game 4 is on Sunday, so he will only have two days to recover before they’ll need him once again, as they look to avoid going down 3-1. After the game, Doc Rivers said that Lillard went to the locker room because of an Achilles injury, and that “Dame was really struggling. In the overtime, he said I’ll be the decoy. I just can’t go, as far as explosion.” That is certainly concerning, and there is certainly a chance that he misses Game 4. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:48 pm
       
    • Returns to Game 3
      Lillard (knee) has returned to Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Lillard went straight to the locker room after suffering an apparent left knee injury with 2:13 remaining in the first quarter, but he was back on the court to start the second period. Khris Middleton is playing through an ankle sprain he suffered in Game 2, and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has yet to play this postseason, so Lillard's return is a major relief. The All-Star has scored 69 points through the first two games of the series but struggled in the second half on both matchups, which allowed Indiana to even the series with a Game 2 win Tuesday.

    • Damian Lillard (knee) returns from locker room
      Damian Lillard (knee) returned to Friday’s Bucks-Pacers game after heading to the locker room toward the end of the first quarter.

      Advice: Lillard didn’t stay in the locker room for long. He returned to the hardwood for the second quarter after a brief stint in the locker room and will continue to play in Game 3. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:21 pm
       
    • Heads to locker room
      Lillard left Friday's Game 3 with 2:13 remaining in the first quarter due to an apparent left knee injury and went to the locker room, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Lillard drove to the basket for a layup and gently collided with Pascal Siakam but landed awkwardly and had to be helped to the bench. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) has yet to play this postseason, and Khris Middleton is playing through an ankle injury he suffered early in Game 2, so Lillard's potential absence couldn't come at a worse time. AJ Green subbed in for Lillard, but Pat Connaughton and Malik Beasley are also candidates for increased roles until the All-Star point guard can return. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:13 pm
