  • 101-73-6 5th Place
    • Scores 22 points in Game 2 loss
      Lopez recorded 22 points (8-13 FG, 6-7 3Pt), three assists, two blocks and one rebound in 29 minutes in Tuesday's 125-108 loss to the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Though Lopez drilled a season-high six three-pointers, his rebound production was conspicuously absent. His one rebound matched a season low for Lopez, who has seen a noticeable drop in the category during his 16th NBA campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:19 am
       
    • Scores team-high 34 points in loss
      Lillard totaled 34 points (10-21 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Tuesday's 125-108 loss to the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Lillard followed up his 35-point performance in Game 1 with another solid number, but his stellar play wasn't enough this time. His supporting cast was much less effective in Game 2, and Giannis Antetokounmpo's (calf) missing output continues to plague the offense. Lillard's excellent start to the postseason is no surprise, as he's averaged 29.5 points, 6.2 assists and 4.5 rebounds over 62 playoff games in his career. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:11 am
       
    • Flirts with double-double in win
      Toppin amassed nine points (4-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds and one steal over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 125-108 victory over the Bucks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Although Toppin has largely been a non-factor for the Pacers recently, he provided solid support in the second unit during the Game 2 victory. Players like Toppin can hold a lot of value for fantasy players in DFS contests, as his inexpensive salary can help lineups stay below the salary cap after adding elite players. His near double-double is an encouraging sign that Toppin can match the value of his DFS salary moving forward. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:50 am
       
    • Brook Lopez tallies 22 points, six 3-pointers
      Brook Lopez shot 8-of-13 from the field in Tuesday’s 125-108 loss to the Pacers, amassing 22 points, one rebound, three assists, two blocks, and six 3-pointers in 29 minutes.

      Advice: After scoring 11 points in Game 1 on Sunday, Lopez doubled his output in Game 2. The six 3-pointers were a playoff career-high for the veteran center, whose previous high was four (on four occasions). Bobby Portis (14/11/2/1 in 30 minutes) recorded his second double-double in as many games but was less efficient as a shooter, going 6-of-16 from the field and 2-of-3 from the foul line. Milwaukee is headed to Indianapolis with the series tied at one win apiece ahead of Friday’s Game 3. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:20 pm
       
    • Damian Lillard leads MIL with 34 points in Game 2
      Damian Lillard finished Tuesday’s 125-108 loss to the Pacers with 34 points (10-of-21 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), four rebounds, five assists, one steal, and six 3-pointers in 39 minutes.

      Advice: Like Sunday’s Game 1 victory, Game 2 was a tale of two halves for Lillard. He put on a show in the first half, scoring 26 points, but the Pacers limited him to eight after halftime. While Doc Rivers said after the game that Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is close to a return, he isn’t back yet. Until that changes, the Bucks will need more second-half production from Lillard. Game 3 is on Friday in Indianapolis. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:15 pm
       
    • Double-doubles in loss
      Nurkic finished with 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 14 rebounds and four assists over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 105-93 loss to Minnesota in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Nurkic grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds to go with 10 points, tallying his first double-double of the series. While he was more involved, the Suns still came up short, falling behind 2-0 in the series. Game 3 will be in Phoenix on Friday, where Nurkic will look to be even more of a force on the interior against the size of the Timberwolves. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 8:46 pm
       
    • Jusuf Nurkic grabs game-high 14 rebounds Tuesday
      Jusuf Nurkic tallied 10 points (5-of-11 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds, and four assists in 31 minutes in Tuesday’s 105-93 loss to the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Phoenix is headed home in a 0-2 hole, and they’ve had their hands full with Rudy Gobert. Nurkic has done what he can in the post, recording a double-double in Game 2 after offering limited production in the series opener on Saturday. Still, Minnesota’s size has given the Suns trouble. Kevin Durant scored 18 points but was not as efficient as in Game 1, shooting 6-of-15 from the field. He added six rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one blocked shot in 41 minutes, but KD missed both of his 3-point attempts. Durant, Nurkic, and the Suns will attempt to shift the series’ momentum on Friday night in Phoenix. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:55 pm
       
    • Rudy Gobert tallies 18 points, full stat line
      Rudy Gobert accumulated 18 points (6-of-8 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, three steals, and one blocked shot in 39 minutes in Tuesday’s 105-93 win over the Suns.

      Advice: Minnesota has a 2-0 series lead, and Gobert’s consistent production is one of the reasons why. After tallying 14 points and 16 rebounds in Game 1, the Stifle Tower scored 18 on Tuesday with a full stat line. Gobert had gotten what he wanted offensively, and his work at the foul line was the bonus. After shooting 6-of-7 from the line on Saturday, he duplicated that feat in Game 2. Gobert’s production in Game 2 helped the Timberwolves compensate for Karl-Anthony Towns’ off night, as he finished with 12 points, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 24 foul-plagued minutes. Game 3 of the series is on Friday night in Phoenix. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:42 pm
       
    • Darius Garland finishes Game 2 with 15 points
      Darius Garland amassed 15 points (5-of-11 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four 3-pointers in 32 minutes in Monday’s win over the Magic.

      Advice: After appearing to tweak his lower back during Game 1, Garland was not on the injury report ahead of Game 2. The more significant issue for the Cavaliers’ point guard on Monday was foul trouble, which cut into his usual time on the court. Garland still led Cleveland with four 3-pointers, providing needed spacing on a night when the other four starters combined go 4-of-19 from beyond the arc. The series now shifts to Orlando, with Game 3 scheduled for Thursday night. Rotoworld Monday, 7:01 pm
