    • Suffers torn Achilles
      Antetokounmpo recently sustained a torn Achilles' tendon and is set to undergo surgery in the near future, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo has a long road ahead of him, with the recovery timeline from Achilles surgery for basketball players typically ranging from 9-to-12 months before a return to game action. His upcoming Achilles procedure will prevent him from competing alongside younger brother Giannis with the Greek national team in July in the pre-Olympic qualifying tournament, and he'll likely be in line to miss most, if not all, of the 2024-25 NBA season. The 31-year-old Antetokounmpo, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, averaged 4.6 minutes per game over 34 appearances in 2023-24. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:23 pm
       
    • Shams: Thanasis Antetokounmpo has torn Achilles
      Thanasis Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

      Advice: Antetokounmpo will undergo surgery, which means that he will be sidelined for a while. A specific timeline isn’t clear at this point, but he will likely miss time at the beginning of next season. However, that won’t impact fantasy basketball whatsoever.

    • Exercises player option
      Wood exercised his $3 million player option for the 2024-25 season Tuesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

      Advice: Wood was a sporadic part of the rotation in Los Angeles this season, appearing in 50 games with averages of 6.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 17.4 minutes. There could potentially be a lot of changes for the Lakers this offseason depending on whether or not LeBron James picks up his player option, so it's difficult to project Wood's role for next season at the moment.

    • Logs 12 minutes Friday
      Thompson posted two points (1-3 FG), two rebounds and one block across 12 minutes during Friday's 103-96 loss to the Magic in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Thompson played as the primary backup behind Evan Mobley, something that Cleveland fans may be hoping will not happen again. Other than providing additional size, Thompson rarely has much of an impact on the court in the late stages of his career. Jarrett Allen (ribs) will almost certainly be doing everything possible to make it back for Game 7. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:04 pm
       
    • Rare appearance Wednesday
      Brown contributed no counting stats over six minutes during Wednesday's 123-93 loss to Dallas in Game 5 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Brown logged six minutes in the loss, a rare appearance and one that should not be happening at this time of the year. The Clippers were blown out by the Mavericks in front of their home fans and are now on the brink of elimination. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:53 am
       
    • Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) cleared to play
      Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (left ankle sprain) will play in Game 4 against the Thunder on Monday.

      Advice: JRE played a total of five minutes over the first two games of this series, with all of that coming in the blowout loss in Game 2. He’ll like only see the floor in this game if the score gets lopsided. Rotoworld Monday, 4:41 pm
       
    • Available for Game 4
      Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been cleared to play in Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

      Advice: Robinson-Earl was added to the injury report as a game-time call due to a left ankle sprain, but he'll be available to take the floor if called upon. He hasn't had much of a role so far in this series, logging only five minutes in Game 2. Rotowire.com Monday, 4:11 pm
       
    • Chris Livingston active vs. Pacers Tuesday
      Chris Livingston has been upgraded from out active for Tuesday’s Bucks-Pacers game.

      Advice: Livingston has been sidelined by an illness as of late but his removal from the injury report won’t make him relevant. He’s not part of the Bucks’ rotation when healthy. Rotoworld Monday, 4:01 pm
       
    • Not listed on injury report
      Livingston (illness) isn't listed on the Bucks' injury report ahead of Tuesday's Game 5 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Livingston missed Games 3 and 4 due to an illness but is cleared for Game 5. However, the second-round rookie isn't guaranteed playing time and has seen only four minutes, which all came during a Game 2 blowout loss, in the opening-round series. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:48 pm
