    • Austin Reaves posts 19/3/4/3/2 line in Game 5 loss
      Austin Reaves provided a scoring boost on Monday with 19 points (6-of-11 FGs), three rebounds, four assists, three steals, two blocks and one triple against Denver.

      Advice: Reaves came alive in the fourth quarter and had nine points over the final six minutes of the game as the Lakers traded leads with the Nuggets. It didn’t end up being enough to keep their season alive, but Reaves was still able to turn in a solid stat line. This was year one of a four year deal that has been a bargain for the Lakers. That flexibility should allow the Lakers to reload this summer, with Reaves being one of the only players outside of LeBron James and Anthony Davis that should be a safe bet to be wearing purple and gold again next season.

    • Kyle Anderson (hip) available Sunday vs. PHX
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is available for Sunday’s matchup with the Suns.

      Advice: Slow Mo will be available after logging just eight minutes in Friday’s Game 3 victory. He’s not expected to play a major role in Game 4. Rotoworld Sunday, 5:58 pm
       
    • Owns glass despite shooting woes
      Hart racked up four points (0-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-8 FT), 17 rebounds, five assists and three blocks in 46 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 victory over Philadelphia in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Hart dominated Game 4 on the glass, leading all players in the contest in rebounds to go along with a handful of assists despite not making any shots from the field in a winning effort. Hart, who ended three boards shy of the 20-rebound mark, became the first player in NBA playoff history to have over 15 rebounds and five assists while not converting on a shot from the field. Hart has impressed on the glass this postseason, hauling in 13 or more boards in three straight outings. Rotowire.com Sunday, 5:44 pm
       
    • Available for Game 4
      Anderson (hip) will play in Sunday's game against the Suns.

      Advice: Anderson carried a questionable tag into Game 4, but he will officially be available. Anderson has seen limited action this postseason, so he doesn't figure to have much fantasy appeal in most formats. Rotowire.com Sunday, 5:36 pm
       
    • Josh Hart grabs 16 rebounds in Game 4 victory
      Josh Hart accounted for four points (0-of-7 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), 16 rebounds, five assists, and three blocked shots in 45 minutes in Sunday’s 97-92 win over Philadelphia.

      Advice: After watching Hart shoot over 50% from three in the first three games of the series, Philadelphia devoted more attention to him in Game 4. While he had a brutal afternoon shooting the basketball, Hart showed that there’s more than one way to impact a game. He led all players with 16 rebounds and tallied five assists and three blocked shots. In addition to the shooting, the five turnovers were a negative, but Hart was more of a positive asset than a negative one. He’ll look to get back on track shooting-wise when the Knicks host Game 5 on Tuesday. New York leads the series three games to one. Rotoworld Sunday, 1:02 pm
       
    • Austin Reaves tallies 21 points, six assists Sat.
      Austin Reaves played 30 minutes in Saturday’s Game 4 win over the Nuggets, accounting for 21 points (7-of-15 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), one rebound, six assists, and one 3-pointer in 30 minutes.

      Advice: After scoring 22 points in the first two games of this series, Reaves tallied 22 and 21 in the Lakers’ two home games. He’s been a more consistent supplementary scoring option than D’Angelo Russell, who bounced back from a brutal Game 3 to score 21 points in Game 4. While D’Lo may offer a higher ceiling to DFS players, Reaves may be the safer option for Game 5 on Monday in Denver. Rotoworld Saturday, 8:21 pm
       
    • Kyle Anderson (hip) questionable for Game 4 Sunday
      Kyle Anderson (right hip pointer) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Suns.

      Advice: Injured during Game 1, Anderson was a DNP-CD for Game 2 and only played eight minutes in Friday’s Game 3. If he remains limited, look for Nickeil Alexander-Walker to continue to play extended minutes off the bench. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 4
      Anderson is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Suns due to a right hip injury, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Anderson was questionable before Game 3 on Friday, and even though he played, he logged only eight minutes off the bench. A similar workload can be expected for Sunday's contest, meaning his fantasy upside will be minimal. Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Available to play
      Anderson (hip) is available for Friday's Game 3 versus the Suns, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

      Advice: Fantasy managers should exercise caution before plugging Anderson into lineups, as the forward didn't touch the floor despite being cleared to play in Game 2. It remains to be seen if he'll rejoin the rotation for Game 3. Rotowire.com Friday, 6:06 pm
