  • Patrick Beverley (oblique) probable Tuesday
    Patrick Beverley (right oblique muscle strain) is listed as probable for the Bucks’ Tuesday game against the Pacers.

    Advice: Beverley will likely continue starting at point guard with Damian Lillard listed as doubtful for Game 5. He’s struggled to match his Game 1 production against Indiana. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago
     
  • Listed doubtful for Game 5
    Lillard (Achilles) is doubtful for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers.

    Advice: Lillard aggravated a right Achilles injury during Game 3 and missed Game 4 after being diagnosed with a strained tendon. The Bucks lost both games and now face elimination. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is also doubtful despite a positive update over the weekend, so Khris Middleton (ankle) and Brook Lopez may have to lead Milwaukee's offense again, while Malik Beasley and Bobby Portis remain in the starting lineup.

  • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Tuesday
    Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms) is listed as questionable for Tuesday’s Pacers-Bucks game.

    Advice: Haliburton is on the injury report after scoring 24 points on his best shooting night of the playoffs so far. However, now his status for Game 5 is up in the air. TJ McConnell will likely see an increase in minutes should Haliburton be ruled out. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
     
  • Dealing with oblique strain
    Beverley is probable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers due to a right oblique strain.

    Advice: Beverley has scored in double figures only once through the first four matchups of the opening-round series, averaging 7.5 points, 4.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals-plus-blocks in 33.5 minutes per game. The veteran played only 21 minutes during Sunday's Game 4 loss, so he may be limited even if he suits up Tuesday. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
     
  • Considered questionable for Game 5
    Haliburton is questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Bucks due to back spasms, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Advice: Haliburton was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Sunday's Game 4 win due to the back issue, but he was cleared and scored 24 points (8-16), his most this postseason. Across four games against Milwaukee, the All-Star has averged 15.8 points, 10.0 assists and 6.3 rebounds in 38.3 minutes per night. If Haliburton is sidelined or limited, T.J. McConnell would likely see increased playing time. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago
     
  • Damian Lillard (Achilles) doubtful Tuesday
    Damian Lillard (right Achilles tendinitis) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday’s Bucks-Pacers game.

    Advice: Lillard missed Game 4 after fighting through his Achilles injury in Game 3. However, the Bucks point guard is on track to miss a second consecutive game. Malik Beasley will likely slide into the starting backcourt if Lillard is ruled out again. Rotoworld Today, 3:14 pm
     
  • Craig Porter Jr. (ankle) out Tuesday vs. Magic
    Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle sprain) is listed as out for Tuesday’s Cavaliers-Magic matchup.

    Advice: Porter still hasn’t recovered from the ankle injury he suffered at the end of the regular season. He’s set to miss his fifth consecutive playoff game on Tuesday. Rotoworld Today, 3:07 pm
     
  • Status in doubt for Game 5
    Lillard's (Achilles) status for Game 5 against the Pacers on Tuesday is in doubt, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Lillard has been playing through right Achilles soreness but aggravated the issue during Game 3 and was ruled out for Game 4 after being diagnosed with a strained tendon. Charania also said Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) isn't close to returning, so the Bucks may be without their top two weapons for a second straight game. Malik Beasley and Bobby Portis would likely remain in the starting lineup if Lillard and Antetokounmpo are out again, but Andre Jackson could also be a candidate for more minutes. Lillard's official status for the potential elimination game should be released Monday night. Rotowire.com Today, 3:06 pm
     
  • Jalen Brunson (knee) probable Tuesday vs 76ers
    Jalen Brunson (right knee contusion) is listed as questionable for the Knicks’ Tuesday meeting with the 76ers.

    Advice: Brunson popped up on the injury report with a knee injury after dropping 47 points his last time out. It doesn’t appear like he’s likely to miss any time from the minor ailment, though. Rotoworld Today, 2:53 pm
