    • Ends season plagued by struggles
      Herro ended Wednesday's 118-84 loss to the Celtics in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 15 points (6-19 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes.

      Advice: Herro was forced to embrace a more prominent role on offense due to the absences of Jimmy Butler (knee) and Terry Rozier (neck) in the series against the Celtics. While the numbers were decent across the board, he struggled badly in terms of efficiency and shooting percentages. Over the five games of the series, Herro made just 38.5 percent of his shots from the field and 34.9 percent of his three-pointers. He averaged 16.8 points per game, but that was not enough to lift Miami to victory against the team with the best record in the NBA. Rotowire.com Today, 5:51 am
       
    • Tyler Herro scores inefficient 15 points in rout
      Tyler Herro shot 6-of-19 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Wednesday’s Game 5 loss to the Celtics, recording a line of 15 points, three rebounds, three assists, and one 3-pointer in 35 minutes.

      Advice: Miami was without Jimmy Butler, Terry Rozier, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. for Game 5, putting even more pressure on Herro to perform with the team’s season on the line. He struggled, as many guards do when dealing with Jrue Holiday. While he established new career-highs in points (20.8 per game), assists (4.5), and 3-pointers (3.1), injuries limited Herro’s fantasy value. Beginning the season with a Yahoo ADP of 68.9, he finished the regular season ranked just inside the top 90 in 9-cat, per-game value, according to Basketball Monster. If Herro can play 65-plus games, as he did during the 2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons, he’s capable of approaching top-60 fantasy value. He’ll be worth selecting in the 6th round of standard league drafts, depending on potential changes to the Heat roster. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:57 pm
       
    • Joel Embiid (knee) questionable for Game 6 Thurs.
      Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: Embiid remains on the injury report, but the good news is that the migraine headache is no longer an issue. Look for him to log heavy minutes as the 76ers attempt to force a decisive seventh game. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:32 pm
       
    • Mitchell Robinson (ankle) questionable Thursday
      Mitchell Robinson (left ankle sprain) is listed as questionable for Thursday’s Knicks-76ers game.

      Advice: Mitchell Robinson is on the injury report after his defensive masterclass in Game 5. The Knicks big man amassed three steals and two blocks. It appears like he could split New York’s center minutes down the middle with Isaiah Hartenstein if he’s healthy for Game 6. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:07 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 6
      Robinson (ankle) is questionable ahead of Thursday's Game 6 matchup with the 76ers.

      Advice: Robinson missed Game 4 due to an ankle issue but returned for Game 5 and logged 25 minutes. The big man has averaged 3.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, 1.5 blocks and 1.0 steals in 21.3 minutes during the opening-round series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:41 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 6
      Embiid (knee) is questionable for Game 6 against the Knicks on Thursday.

      Advice: Embiid has been listed as questionable for every game in this series so far, but he's yet to miss a game, so he feels much closer to probable. While the reigning MVP hasn't looked 100 percent, he continues to stuff the stat sheet and has averaged 31.8 points, 10.4 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 steals in 41.8 minutes.

    • Triple-doubles in win
      Embiid ended with 19 points (7-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 16 rebounds, 10 assists, four blocks and one steal in 48 minutes during Tuesday's 112-106 overtime win over the Knicks in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: This was considered an off game for Embiid, yet he still managed a triple-double to keep the 76ers alive in the playoffs. Embiid wasn't quite himself and was moving around pretty slowly, as he was battling both a migraine and some left knee soreness. The 76ers will be hopeful that Embiid will feel more like himself for Game 6 on Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:46 am
       
    • Joel Embiid records triple-double in Game 5 win
      Joel Embiid recorded a triple-double on Tuesday with 19 points (7-of-19 FGs), 16 rebounds, 10 assists, one steal, five blocks, one triple and nine turnovers in Game 5 against New York.

      Advice: Embiid has clearly been playing through injuries throughout the series, and it showed with his performance in this game. It wasn’t all bad, and he was still able to make some big plays late. The triple-double also helps make his night look a little better, but the poor shooting and plethora of turnovers were more indicative of his performance. Still, they were able to steal a win on the road, which shifts the series back to Philly for Game 6. They will still have to win another game in New York to win the series, and if they want to do that, Embiid will have to be better, even if he’s hurting. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:16 pm
       
    • Good to go Tuesday
      Robinson (ankle) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the 76ers, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Robinson has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday after missing Game 4 with a left ankle sprain. Robinson will likely continue to split time with Precious Achiuwa as the backup center to Isaiah Hartenstein. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 3:37 pm
