    • Wendell Carter Jr. starts, grabs five rebounds
      Wendell Carter Jr. played 25 minutes in Thursday’s 121-83 win over Cleveland, accumulating two points (1-of-4 FGs) and five rebounds.

      Advice: Carter moved into the starting lineup after coming off the bench in the series’ first two games. He did not offer much production, but having more size in the middle helped Orlando keep Jarrett Allen (eight rebounds) off the boards. With Carter starting, Jonathan Isaac returned to the bench, and he chipped in with eight points, two rebounds, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers in 16 minutes. Game 4 is on Saturday, with Cleveland holding a 2-1 lead. Rotoworld Today, 6:39 pm
       
    • Available to play
      James (ankle) is available to play in Thursday's Game 3 versus the Nuggets, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

      Advice: As is usually the case, James was carrying a probable tag prior to this update due to lingering left ankle soreness. James is not expected to have any restrictions as the Lakers attempt to pick up their first win of the series. Rotowire.com Today, 6:32 pm
       
    • LeBron James, Anthony Davis available for Game 3
      LeBron James (left ankle peroneal tendinopathy) and Anthony Davis (low back soreness) are available for Thursday’s game against the Nuggets.

      Advice: It’s no surprise that James and Davis are available, as they were probable on the initial injury report. They’ll take on their usual responsibilities, with the latter possibly being more of a focal point offensively after attempting just one shot in the fourth quarter of Game 2.

    • ORL start Suggs, Harris, Wagner, Banchero, Carter
      The Magic will start Jalen Suggs, Gary Harris, Franz Wagner, Paolo Banchero, and Wendell Carter Jr. against the Cavaliers on Thursday.

      Advice: Wendell Carter Jr. will start at center after backing up Jonathan Isaac in Games 1 and 2. Orlando is reverting to its usual regular-season lineup in hopes of securing a home win against the Cavaliers in Game 3. Rotoworld Today, 3:39 pm
       
    • Starting in Game 3
      Carter is in the starting lineup to face the Cavaliers on Thursday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Carter was the starting center for the majority of the regular season, and he will slot back into that role as the Magic attempt to shake things up ahead of a pivotal Game 3 at home. Carter has averaged 10.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in a starting role this season. Rotowire.com Today, 3:32 pm
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) doubtful Friday
      Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is listed as doubtful for the Bucks’ Friday matchup with the Pacers.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo still hasn’t made his 2024 NBA Playoffs debut and it appears like he’ll miss his team’s first road game of its series against Indiana ahead of the weekend. Bobby Portis will likely continue to start for Antetokounmpo. Rotoworld Today, 1:41 pm
       
    • Doubtful for Friday
      Antetokounmpo (calf) is doubtful for Friday's Game 3 against Indiana.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has been putting up shots in recent days but hadn't yet resumed running or cutting as of Wednesday. As a result, he'll likely be unavailable for a sixth consecutive game due to his calf issue. Assuming he's sidelined, his next chance to suit up will be in Sunday's Game 4.

    • Leads offensively in double-double
      Herro posted 24 points (7-13 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 14 assists, five rebounds and one steal over 38 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 win over Boston in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

      Advice: Herro stepped up big for Miami in a bounce-back win in Game 2, leading all players in the contest in threes made and assists while leading all Heat players in scoring in an impressive outing. Herro set a season high in assists for any Miami player this year, and he tied the second-most dimes by a Heat player in a playoff game in team history. Miami will need Herro to continue to step up offensively, especially with Jimmy Butler (knee) inactive. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:45 pm
       
    • Tyler Herro secures double-double to top Celtics
      Tyler Herro scored 24 points (7-of-13 FGs) and made both of his attempts from the foul line in the Heat’s 111-101 win against the Celtics on Wednesday. He also totaled five rebounds, 14 assists, a steal, and six made 3-pointers.

      Advice: Herro recovered quickly from his poor 11-point outing in Game 1. He paced his team in points and assists en route to the victory and has momentum on his side ahead of Game 3 in Miami. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:38 pm
