    • Donovan Mitchell leads Cavs with 28 points in win
      Donovan Mitchell led Cleveland with 28 points (9-of-23 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one triple in a 104-103 win over the Magic in Game 5 on Tuesday.

      Advice: After two poor performances in Orlando, Mitchell vowed to play better moving forward. He did just that, and while he didn’t have his best shooting night, he was able to lead the team in scoring and ice the game with two a pair of late free throws. They’ll have a chance to close out the series in Orlando in Game 6 on Friday, but Mitchell will have to be much better than he was in Games 3 and 4. If he doesn’t they’ll be back in Cleveland on Sunday for Game 7. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:16 pm
       
    • Won't play Tuesday
      Lillard (Achilles) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

      Advice: Lillard will miss his second straight contest after being downgraded from doubtful to out with a right Achilles strain. Malik Beasley will likely draw another start in Lillard's absence. If Milwaukee can win Game 5, Lillard's next chance to suit up will come in Game 6 on Thursday.

    • Flirts with double-double
      Holmgren notched 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and five assists across 35 minutes during Monday's 97-89 win over the Pelicans in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Holmgren couldn't get his shot working from downtown, but he was able to bounce back from a sluggish six-point showing in Game 3. The Gonzaga product averaged 15.3 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.8 blocks during a four-game sweep of New Orleans. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:18 pm
       
    • Listed as doubtful for Game 5
      Lillard (Achilles) is doubtful for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Lillard aggravated a right Achilles injury during Game 3 and missed Game 4 after being diagnosed with a strained tendon. The Bucks lost both games and now face elimination. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is also doubtful despite a positive update over the weekend, so Khris Middleton (ankle) and Brook Lopez may have to lead Milwaukee's offense again, while Malik Beasley and Bobby Portis will likely remain in the starting lineup.

    • Damian Lillard (Achilles) doubtful Tuesday
      Damian Lillard (right Achilles tendinitis) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday’s Bucks-Pacers game.

      Advice: Lillard missed Game 4 after fighting through his Achilles injury in Game 3. However, the Bucks point guard is on track to miss a second consecutive game. Malik Beasley will likely slide into the starting backcourt if Lillard is ruled out again. Rotoworld Monday, 3:14 pm
       
    • Status in doubt for Game 5
      Lillard's (Achilles) status for Game 5 against the Pacers on Tuesday is in doubt, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Lillard has been playing through right Achilles soreness but aggravated the issue during Game 3 and was ruled out for Game 4 after being diagnosed with a strained tendon. Charania also said Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) isn't close to returning, so the Bucks may be without their top two weapons for a second straight game. Malik Beasley and Bobby Portis would likely remain in the starting lineup if Lillard and Antetokounmpo are out again, but Andre Jackson could also be a candidate for more minutes. Lillard's official status for the potential elimination game should be released Monday night. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:06 pm
       
    • Damian Lillard (Achilles) out for Game 4 Sunday
      Damian Lillard (right Achilles tendinitis) is out for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Milwaukee’s task of evening their first-round series at two games apiece gets significantly more difficult as Lillard joins Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) on the sidelines. Malik Beasley, Pat Connaughton, and AJ Green are all in the running for increased minutes in Game 4, with Doc Rivers’ choice to start being the best option for DFS tournaments.

    • Ruled out for Game 4
      Lillard (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: As expected, Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) have been downgraded from doubtful to out. Khris Middleton (ankle) remains probable. Per Shams Charania of The Athletic, Lillard had been playing through soreness in his Achilles over the last few weeks and aggravated the issue during the Bucks' Game 3 loss on Friday. The Bucks are officially listing Lillard's injury as right Achilles tendinitis. Malik Beasley, Andre Jackson and AJ Green are all candidates to take on increased roles Sunday in Lillard's absence.

      Advice: Wagner has averaged 7.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 16.8 minutes through the first four games of the opening-round series against the Cavaliers.
