  • 75-93-3 12th Place
    • Cracks rotation Wednesday
      Burks closed Wednesday's 130-121 victory over the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with zero points (0-1 FG) in one minute.

      Advice: Burks dusted himself off Wednesday, leaving the bench for the first time this postseason. Jalen Brunson was forced to the locker room during the second quarter, affording one minute of playing time to Burks. Given Brunson was able to return to the game, it is unlikely we see Burks again anytime soon. Rotowire.com Today, 9:44 pm
       
    • Suffers torn Achilles
      Antetokounmpo recently sustained a torn Achilles' tendon and is set to undergo surgery in the near future, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has a long road ahead of him, with the recovery timeline from Achilles surgery for basketball players typically ranging from 9-to-12 months before a return to game action. His upcoming Achilles procedure will prevent him from competing alongside younger brother Giannis with the Greek national team in July in the pre-Olympic qualifying tournament, and he'll likely be in line to miss most, if not all, of the 2024-25 NBA season. The 31-year-old Antetokounmpo, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, averaged 4.6 minutes per game over 34 appearances in 2023-24. Rotowire.com Today, 3:23 pm
       
    • Shams: Thanasis Antetokounmpo has torn Achilles
      Thanasis Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery, which means that he will be sidelined for a while. A specific timeline isn’t clear at this point, but he will likely miss time at the beginning of next season. However, that won’t impact fantasy basketball whatsoever. Rotoworld Today, 3:15 pm
       
    • Won't play Thursday
      Wade (knee) won't suit up for Thursday's Game 2 matchup with Boston.

      Advice: Wade has been out of commission for two months now, and with no positive updates to speak of, it's safe to assume he's still not close. Rotowire.com Today, 2:41 pm
       
    • Closes Game 1 loss
      Lawson closed with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one rebound in five minutes during Tuesday's 117-95 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Lawson played five minutes of garbage time as the Mavericks were dismantled by the Thunder down the stretch. Dallas will attempt to reverse the result in Game 2 on Thursday, hoping to head home with the series locked at 1-1. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:31 pm
       
    • Shines off bench in Game 2
      Alexander-Walker accumulated 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 30 minutes during Monday's 106-80 win over the Nuggets in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: As has been the case throughout the entire playoff run, Alexander-Walker was impressive and provided a scoring punch off the bench, unsettling the Nuggets with his long-range shooting and energy. Alexander-Walker averaged just 8.0 points per game during the regular season, but he's taken his play to another level in the playoffs, scoring in double digits in four of his six appearances while upping his scoring average to 11.3 points per game.

    • Efficient double-double in win
      Towns closed with 27 points (10-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 36 minutes during Monday's 106-80 win over the Nuggets in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Towns was tasked with more responsibility on the defensive end since Rudy Gobert (personal) was unavailable for this contest. Even though he had to deal with Nikola Jokic on both ends of the court, Towns thrived and posted a great stat line. This was Towns' third double-double over his last four playoff appearances, and he's expected to return to his role at power forward in case Gobert is ready to return for Game 3 of the series, scheduled for Friday.

    • Karl-Anthony Towns records 27/12/1/1/2 line Monday
      Karl-Anthony Towns shot 10-of-15 from the field and 4-of-4 from the foul line in Monday’s 106-80 blowout of the Nuggets, tallying 27 points, 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal, two blocks, and three 3-pointers in 36 minutes.

      Advice: Minnesota needed Towns to step up with Rudy Gobert (personal reasons) away from the team, and that’s what he did. KAT tied for the team lead in points, shooting 66.7% from the field while also grabbing 12 rebounds. He’s scored 20 points or more in three straight games, and not only was foul trouble not an issue for Towns, but he and the other starters were able to watch the end of Tuesday’s rout from the bench. Gobert should be available for Friday’s Game 3, but Minnesota needs Towns to play at this level consistently. Now 6-0 this postseason, the Timberwolves look like a team that can play into June.

    • Remains out
      Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics.

      Advice: Wade hasn't played since March 8 due to a right knee sprain. It's unclear if he'll get the green light at any point during the Eastern Conference Semifinals, but unless Cleveland provides an update, Wade can be considered day-to-day. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:37 pm
