  • 92-83-5 6th Place
    • Another dreadful showing
      Irving posted nine points (4-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and nine assists in 41 minutes during Monday's 100-96 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: The Mavericks have welcomed the emergence of P.J. Washington in the series against the Thunder, as Kyrie Irving has struggled badly so far. He's now failed to score in double digits in two of the four games of the series and is shooting a mere 35.7 percent from three-point range. Irving needs to take on a bigger role on offense if the Mavericks want to move to the Western Conference Finals, especially considering how banged up Luka Doncic is.

    • Kyrie Irving musters up 9/1/9 line in Game 4 loss
      Kyrie Irving struggled on Monday and finished with just nine points (4-of-11 FGs), one rebound and nine assists against the Thunder.

      Advice: Kyrie has been able to put together some spectacular second halves after not doing much in the first half throughout this postseason. However, that wasn’t the case in this game. After entering halftime with four points and seven assists, he didn’t add much after the break. Dallas can’t survive with both Luka Doncic and Irving struggling, which was the case in this game. OKC regained homecourt advantage in this game, which means that Dallas will have to win another game on the road to win this series. Kyrie will look to bounce back in Game 5 on Wednesday to help make that happen. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:56 pm
       
    • Considered questionable
      Haliburton is questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Knicks due to low back spasms, a sacral contusion and a right ankle sprain.

      Advice: Despite all the injuries, Haliburton has been spectacular over the last three games, averaging 29.7 points, 7.0 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 33.7 minutes. Though he sported a major limp following Sunday's Game 4 win, the All-Star is likely more probable than questionable heading into Game 5, but his official availability will likely be a game-time decision.

    • Tyrese Haliburton (back, ankle) questionable
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms, sacral contusion, right ankle sprain) is questionable to play in Game 5 against New York on Tuesday.

      Advice: Haliburton continues to deal with a ton of lingering injuries, but it is unlikely that they keep him out of the lineup for a pivotal Game 5 matchup in New York. Haliburton had 20 points in a blowout win in Game 4 after dropping 35 in Game 3. They’ll need him to shine once again on Tuesday to gain an advantage in the series.

    • Tyrese Haliburton scores 20 points in Game 4 rout
      Tyrese Haliburton shot 8-of-15 from the field in Sunday’s 121-89 win over the Knicks, accumulating 20 points, six rebounds, five assists, and four 3-pointers in 27 minutes.

      Advice: After struggling in Game 1, Haliburton has looked like his usual self for the Pacers. Indiana resoundingly won Game 4, which meant additional time on the bench for their key contributors. In the case of Haliburton, his day was finished about halfway through the third quarter. Now tied at two games all, the series shifts to New York for Game 5 on Tuesday. Given how much of a handful the more aggressive Haliburton has been, the Pacers have to like their chances.

    • Tyrese Haliburton (back, ankle) available Sunday
      Tyrese Haliburton (low back spasms, right ankle sprain) is active for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Knicks.

      Advice: There is no surprise here, as Haliburton has played through the back issues since the first round. He rolled his ankle on a layup attempt during Friday’s Game 3 victory and is also dealing with a sacral contusion, but none of this will keep the Pacers point guard off the court. Indiana still trails New York by two games to one. Rotoworld Sunday, 10:57 am
       
    • Available for Game 4
      Haliburton (back/ankle) will play in Sunday's Game 4 against the Knicks, Tony East of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Haliburton will play through multiple injuries Sunday, as he's dealing with low back spasms, a right ankle sprain and a sacral contusion. Despite the injuries, Haliburton has played 35 or more minutes in each game this series and has topped 30 points in back-to-back contests. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:56 am
       
    • Bounces back with 22 points
      Irving notched 22 points (10-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt), five rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal over 41 minutes during Saturday's 105-101 win over the Thunder in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: After a season-low nine points in Game 2, Irving came back with a diverse stat line, helping the Mavericks go up in the series. Irving complemented teammate Luka Doncic with a series of key plays in the closing minutes, draining all four of his shots in the final stanza. Irving led the team with seven assists, which marked the fourth time the All-Star exceeded his season average in that category during the playoffs. Rotowire.com Saturday, 5:45 pm
       
    • Kyrie Irving records 22/5/7/1/1 line in Game 3 win
      Kyrie Irving finished Saturday’s 105-101 win over the Thunder with 22 points (10-of-17 FGs), five rebounds, seven assists, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers in 41 minutes.

      Advice: Irving turned things up a notch offensively during the second half for the second time in this series. He scored 14 of his 22 points in the final 15 minutes of Game 3, sealing the victory with a left-handed floater with about 30 seconds remaining. With Luka Doncic playing through multiple injuries, Irving’s ability to make things happen offensively is of even greater importance to the Mavericks. Dallas will take a 2-1 series lead into Game 4 on Monday night. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:11 pm
