    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) active Friday vs. Knicks
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) has been upgraded from questionable to active for Friday’s Pacers-Knicks game.

      Advice: Haliburton is set to suit up once again. The Pacers point guard hasn’t missed any time because of his back spasms and should carry his usual workload. Rotoworld 8 minutes ago
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Haliburton (back) is available for Friday's Game 3 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday despite dealing with lower back spasms. Haliburton is averaging 20.0 points, 8.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 3.5 steals in 35.5 minutes across the first two games of the series. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
       
    • Daniel Gafford (hand) scores 13 points Thursday
      Daniel Gafford (right hand) shot 4-of-6 from the field and 5-of-9 from the foul line in Thursday’s Game 2 win over Dallas, scoring 13 points with seven rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one blocked shot in 27 minutes.

      Advice: Despite injuring his right hand during the second quarter, Gafford played 27 minutes as the starting center and was one of five Mavericks to reach double figures. He did spend some time in the locker room before halftime, but the veteran pivot still shouldered his usual workload. There’s a quick turnaround for Game 3, which will be played on Saturday afternoon in Dallas. Should Gafford’s hand become more problematic, Dereck Lively II would take on added responsibility. The rookie played 20 minutes off the bench in Game 2, finishing with two points (1-of-7 FGs), four rebounds, one assist, and one blocked shot. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:25 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Friday
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is listed as questionable for the Pacers’ Game 4 matchup against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton broke out of his scoring slump in his latest outing, scoring 34 points in a Game 2 loss. He’s carried this designation for a while and seems likely to suit up for Game 3 on Friday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:11 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 3
      Haliburton (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's Game 3 matchup with the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been listed as "questionable" with the back issue for every game since Game 4 of Indiana's first-round series, but he's yet to hit the sidelines, so he feels a lot closer to probable. Check back for official word on his status closer to Friday's tip. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:39 pm
       
    • Leads all scorers in loss
      Haliburton totaled 34 points (11-19 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 130-121 loss to New York in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Haliburton finally found some rhythm on the offensive end, putting up a game-high 34 points, including seven triples. Although the Pacers managed to put up a respectable total, their defense simply wasn't up to the task of slowing down the Knicks. With the series now shifting to Indiana, Haliburton will look to build on this performance in the hopes of keeping the series alive. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:38 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton bounces back, scores 34 points
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) finished Wednesday’s 130-121 loss to the Knicks with 34 points (11-of-19 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, nine assists, three steals, and seven 3-pointers in 35 minutes.

      Advice: After attempting just six shots in Monday’s Game 1 loss, Haliburton was the focus of many conversations. He was far more aggressive on offense in Game 2, attempting eight shots in the first quarter alone and finishing with a game-high 34 points. Haliburton can be even more aggressive on that end of the floor, which could happen in Game 3 on Friday. Despite the defeat, Wednesday’s performance was a step in the right direction for the All-Star point guard. Rotoworld Wednesday, 8:16 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) available for Game 2 Wed.
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: As expected, Haliburton is available and will start Game 2. He only attempted six shots in Game 1, which is way too low for a player of his caliber. Look for Haliburton to be far more involved in the Pacers offense as a scorer, which could cut into his assist tally. Rotoworld Wednesday, 4:58 pm
       
    • Cleared for Game 2
      Haliburton (back) is available for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been battling back spasms throughout the playoffs, but he'll play through the issue once again Wednesday. However, it's possible the back spasms could impact his effectiveness considering he scored just six points in 36 minutes during Game 1 on Monday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:13 pm
