  • Available to play Thursday
    Melton (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Knicks, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Advice: Melton was tabbed a game-time decision for this contest, but in the end, he'll be available to see minutes off the bench. He didn't see action in any of the first two games of the series and has played just two games since the beginning of March, so he's not expected to have a heavy workload across the board.

  • Considered game-time decision
    Melton (back) is considered a game-time decision for Thursday's Game 3 against the Knicks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Melton practiced Wednesday and is questionable for Thursday's matchup, but the 76ers will wait to see how he fares during pregame warmups before determining his availability. Even with the 76ers down 0-2 in the first-round series, it wouldn't be surprising to see Melton's playing time monitored if he's cleared to suit up Thursday. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
     
  • Won't face limitations in Game 3
    Suggs won't face a minutes limit during Thursday's Game 3 against the Cavaliers, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

    Advice: Suggs suffered a left knee sprain during Monday's Game 2 loss, but he practiced fully Wednesday and did so again Thursday morning. He's averaged 11.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 31.0 minutes per game over the first two matchups in the series. Rotowire.com Today, 7:59 am
     
  • Goes for 33 points in Game 2 win
    Gilgeous-Alexander had 33 points (13-19 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 124-92 victory over the Pelicans in Game 2 of the Western Conference first round.

    Advice: The Thunder secured a statement win in Game 2 of the series, and Gilgeous-Alexander was dominant en route to his first 30-point effort since April 9, when he exploded for 40 points in a win over the Kings. Gilgeous-Alexander should lead the Thunder in Game 3 on Saturday, and he's having an excellent series so far, shooting 55.8 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from deep in the first two games against New Orleans.

  • Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scores game-high 33 points
    Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 33 points (13-of-19 FGs) and shot all four of his shots at the foul line in the Thunder’s Wednesday win over the Pelicans. He also tallied three rebounds, five assists, two steals, and three 3-pointers.

    Advice: SGA led all scorers for a second straight contest. OKC’s star point guard also led his team in steals in a well-rounded performance. He’ll look to continue his strong run on the road for Game 3. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:10 pm
     
  • Boosts offense in loss
    White tallied 13 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, one rebound, one block and one steal over 36 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 loss to Miami in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

    Advice: White provided a boost on the offensive end of the court for Boston in a losing effort, handing out a team-high-tying quartet of assists to go along with a pair of threes and concluding as one of three Celtics in double figures in scoring. White has pitched in nicely behind Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum in the first round, recording at least 13 points and four rebounds in both outings against Miami.

  • 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
     
  • Won't play Thursday
    Jerome (ankle) will remain on the sidelines for Game 3 versus the Magic on Thursday.

    Advice: Jerome is still recovering from ankle surgery and hasn't played since Oct. 27. Even if he's cleared to suit up during the postseason, he's unlikely to crack the rotation. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:43 pm
