  • 84-93-3 9th Place
    • Shines with 40-point double-double
      Middleton recorded 42 points (16-29 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 10 rebounds and five assists over 41 minutes in Friday's 121-118 overtime loss to Indiana in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Middleton did all he could to help lead Milwaukee to an overtime victory, including hitting the game-tying shot at the end of regulation to send the game to overtime and also tying the game late in overtime, but his 40-point double-double was spoiled in a losing effort. Middleton led all players in Friday's contest in scoring while ending as one of two Bucks with 10 or more rebounds to go along with a handful of assists in a well-rounded outing. If Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) remains out for Game 4, look for Middleton to continue to provide a lift to Milwaukee offensively. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:02 pm
       
    • Khris Middleton drops 42 in overtime loss
      Khris Middleton led the Bucks with 42 points (16-of-29 FGs), 10 rebounds, five assists and four 3-pointers in a 121-118 overtime loss to the Pacers in Game 3 on Friday.

      Advice: Middleton was questionable coming into this game, but the ankle injury didn’t have any impact on his production. He forced overtime with a 3-pointer and tied the game with six seconds left in overtime with another triple. It wasn’t enough to help them get the win, but it was still a special performance from Middleton. Game 4 is on Sunday, and Middleton will need to carry over some of this magic if they want to tie this series up and retake home court advantage. He’ll likely end up on the injury report again, but there shouldn’t be any concern surrounding his availability. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:55 pm
       
    • Listed as probable for Game 4
      James (ankle) is probable for Saturday's Game 4 versus Denver, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

      Advice: James carrying probable tags due to left ankle soreness is par for the course. Fantasy managers should expect him to suit up with Los Angeles' season on the line, as the Lakers are winless through three games in the series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:20 pm
       
    • LeBron James (ankle) probable to play in Game 4
      LeBron James (left ankle peroneal tendinopathy) is listed as probable to play in Game 4 against Denver on Saturday.

      Advice: LeBron continues to find himself on the injury report, but there is no way that he is missing a potential elimination game. He’ll play as many minutes as he needs to in order to keep the series going. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:15 pm
       
    • Khris Middleton (ankle) active Friday vs. Pacers
      Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) has been upgraded from questionable to active ahead of Friday’s Game 3 matchup between the Bucks and Pacers.

      Advice: Middleton returned from a leg injury in Game 2 and is set to suit up despite not practicing on Thursday. Pat Connaughton will likely get an extended run if Middleton struggles. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:38 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Middleton (ankle) will play in Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

      Advice: Middleton has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday despite suffering a right ankle sprain in Game 2. There is no indication that the 32-year-old forward will be on a minutes restriction. Middleton is averaging 19.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 35.5 minutes across the first two games of the series against Indiana. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:27 pm
       
    • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) officially out Friday
      Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is out for Friday’s matchup with the Pacers.

      Advice: Giannis will miss a third straight playoff game as the series with the Pacers shifts to Indiana. Bobby Portis usually balls out when Giannis is sidelined, and Portis will be expected to shoulder a heftier load once again. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:26 am
       
    • Officially ruled out
      Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo was doubtful on Milwaukee's initial injury report, and he'll officially miss a sixth consecutive game as the team attempts to regain a lead in the first-round series. His next chance to suit up will be in Game 4 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:33 am
       
    • Scores 26 in Game 3 defeat
      James produced 26 points (12-20 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, nine assists, one block and two steals across 42 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: James had another strong showing, but as has been the trend throughout the series, the Lakers couldn't maintain their lead and ended up losing, falling into an 0-3 deficit. James has done everything in his power to counter Denver, reaching the 25-point mark in all three of his appearances in the series while averaging 26.3 points, 9.7 assists and 6.7 rebounds across 40.3 minutes per contest.
