  • 90-78-3 5th Place
    • Josh Giddey knocks down four more triples vs. NOR
      Josh Giddey lit up the Pelicans with 14 points (5-of-10 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one block and four triples on Monday.

      Advice: Giddey’s shot has been a weakness for the team’s offense all year, but he has improved drastically over the course of the season. He may have peaked during Games 3 and 4, as he knocked down four 3-pointers in each to help the Thunder complete the sweep and advance to the second round. His season-high of five 3-pointers also came in New Orleans, so he seems to really enjoy shooting on these rims. Unfortunately, he’ll have to adjust to shooting in either Dallas or Los Angeles, depending on the results of that series. Rotoworld Monday, 8:38 pm
       
    • Quiet in Game 4 win
      Alexander-Walker finished Sunday's 122-116 victory over Phoenix in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with five points (2-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 31 minutes.

      Advice: Alexander-Walker wasn't able to get much going offensively, but coach Chris Finch still trusted him with a significant workload. That's been the case for the entire series, as Alexander-Walker averaged 12.3 points, 4.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 2.3 three-pointers in 31.0 minutes per game as the Timberwolves completed their sweep of the Suns.

    • Kyle Anderson (hip) available Sunday vs. PHX
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is available for Sunday’s matchup with the Suns.

      Advice: Slow Mo will be available after logging just eight minutes in Friday’s Game 3 victory. He’s not expected to play a major role in Game 4. Rotoworld Sunday, 5:58 pm
       
    • Available for Game 4
      Anderson (hip) will play in Sunday's game against the Suns.

      Advice: Anderson carried a questionable tag into Game 4, but he will officially be available. Anderson has seen limited action this postseason, so he doesn't figure to have much fantasy appeal in most formats. Rotowire.com Sunday, 5:36 pm
       
    • Strong performance Saturday
      Giddey notched 21 points (8-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 106-85 victory over New Orleans in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Giddey put together his best performance of the postseason, helping guide the Thunder to a comfortable victory. He was one of three Oklahoma City players to score at least 20 points, a feat achieved by no one for the Pelicans. Now leading the series 3-0, the Thunder will look to end things in Game 4 on Monday.

    • Kyle Anderson (hip) questionable for Game 4 Sunday
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Suns.

      Advice: Injured during Game 1, Anderson was a DNP-CD for Game 2 and only played eight minutes in Friday’s Game 3. If he remains limited, look for Nickeil Alexander-Walker to continue to play extended minutes off the bench. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 4
      Anderson is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Suns due to a right hip injury, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Anderson was questionable before Game 3 on Friday, and even though he played, he logged only eight minutes off the bench. A similar workload can be expected for Sunday's contest, meaning his fantasy upside will be minimal. Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Josh Giddey produces 21/8/6/1 line with 4 triples
      Josh Giddey stuffed the stat sheet on Saturday and finished with 21 points (8-of-13 FGs), eight rebounds, six assists, one steal and four 3-pointers against the Pelicans in Game 3.

      Advice: Giddey played better in Game 2 than he did in Game 1, and he was even better in this one. He produced a solid stat line, and he was a threat from beyond the arc, which has been a weakness for the team. If Giddey can consistently knock down open shots, they’ll be a difficult team to slow down during this postseason. It is unlikely that he will continue to be this productive as a scorer, but he was an important piece in their big win on Saturday. If he can have another game like this, they won’t have any issues closing this series out in Game 4 on Monday. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:19 pm
       
    • Nickeil Alexander-Walker knocks down four triples
      Nickeil Alexander-Walker provided a boost off the bench and finished with 16 points (4-of-10 FGs, all 3PTs), two rebounds and five assists against the Suns on Friday.

      Advice: Minnesota has the Sixth Man of the Year on their team in Naz Reid, but NAW has also had a strong series off the bench, which continued in this game. Through three games, Alexander-Walker is averaging 14.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 3.0 triples in 31 minutes per game, despite coming off the bench. He didn’t get any steals in Game 3, but he continues to make a massive impact on the defensive end. He’ll continue to make life difficult for Devin Booker and Bradley Beal in Game 4 on Sunday.
