Chet Holmgren finished Saturday’s Game 6 loss to the Mavericks with 21 points (9-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals, and one 3-pointer in 35 minutes.

Advice: Despite scoring 21 points, Holmgren’s final game of the season wasn’t his best. More concerning than the 1-of-7 night from three was the rebounding, with the rookie only grabbing three. By comparison, Mavericks rookie Dereck Lively II grabbed 15 by himself. Holmgren’s struggles to rebound prompted Thunder coach Mark Daigneault to go with a bigger lineup down the stretch, with Jaylin Williams (6/2/2/1/1 with one 3-pointer in 18 minutes) joining the rookie in the frontcourt. Overall, Holmgren had an excellent rookie campaign, finishing second to Victor Wembanyama in Rookie of the Year voting and providing top-20 per-game value in 9-cat formats. Based on his Yahoo ADP, Chet was expected by many to be a 4th-round player. Those days are over; he should not get out of the third round in standard league drafts, and that’s being conservative.

Derrick Jones Jr. shot 8-of-13 from the field and 2-of-2 from the foul line in Saturday’s 117-116 win over the Thunder, accumulating 22 points, four rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block, and four 3-pointers in 40 minutes.

Advice: After scoring 19 points in the first three games of this series, Jones picked up the production significantly. He scored 17, 19, and 22 points in the final three games, shooting 4-of-6 from beyond the arc in Game 6 while also recording a full stat line. Having produced the best regular season of his NBA career, Jones fits nicely next to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. He and the Mavericks are headed to the Western Conference Finals, which begin on Wednesday night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:52 pm

OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

Advice: Anunoby has not played since injuring his hamstring during the third quarter of Game 2. With Josh Hart also questionable for Sunday’s game due to a strained abdominal, getting Anunoby back (as long as he’s healthy) would give the Knicks a welcome boost. Miles McBride started Games 5 and 6 for Anunoby and will remain in that role if OG cannot play. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:36 pm

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Josh Hart has been diagnosed with an abdominal strain but will attempt to play in Sunday’s Game 7 against the Pacers.

Advice: Hart suffered the injury during the first half of Friday’s Game 6 defeat. He played through the pain until it became clear that the game was no longer in reach, with the Knicks ruling him out early in the fourth quarter. According to Charania, Hart will attempt to play on Sunday afternoon for a Knicks team already down multiple rotation players due to injury. Precious Achiuwa could return to the starting lineup if Hart cannot play. According to SNY’s Ian Begley, Hart will be on the initial injury report. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:21 pm

Sims racked up one rebound, one assist and one block across four minutes during Friday's 116-103 loss to the Pacers in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

Advice: Sims played four minutes of garbage time as the Knicks were soundly beaten by the Pacers. Though he is known for playing his stars heavy minutes, even in losses, common sense prevailed with Tom Thibodeau closing with his second unit. Despite another ankle injury to Mitchell Robinson, Sims has been unable to carve out a consistent role, something that doesn't bode well for his future when looking beyond this season.
