    • Perfect from line in victory
      Wagner amassed 26 points (7-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 11-11 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 42 minutes during Friday's 103-96 win over the Cavaliers in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Wagner went a perfect 11-of-11 from the line, helping the Magic to an impressive Game 6 victory. It was another strong performance by Wagner, who continues to develop into a key piece for Orlando. Game 7 will take place Sunday, with both teams vying for a second-round berth against the high-flying Celtics. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:21 pm
       
    • Franz Wagner tallies 26 points, full stat line
      Franz Wagner finished Friday’s 103-96 win over Cleveland with 26 points (7-of-16 FGs, 11-of-11 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks, and one 3-pointer in 41 minutes.

      Advice: The home team has not lost a game in this series, which remained the case in Game 6 on Friday. Wagner was one of three Magic starters to score at least 20 points, and the stat line shows that he was impactful on both ends of the floor. Game 6 was the second in which the third-year forward surpassed the 20-point mark, with the first being Orlando’s Game 4 triumph (34). If the Magic are to win Game 7 in Cleveland on Sunday, they will need another complete performance from Wagner. Rotoworld Friday, 7:06 pm
       
    • Goes for 25 points in Game 5 win
      Brown finished Wednesday's 118-84 victory over Miami in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 25 points (11-19 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds and two assists over 26 minutes.

      Advice: Brown was one of two Boston players who reached the 25-point mark Wednesday, with Derrick White being the other, but he didn't do much outside of scoring. Brown scored 20-plus points in three of the five outings in the series against the Heat, and he should continue to play a prominent role on offense in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, regardless of the opponent, especially if Kristaps Porzingis (calf) remains sidelined for a prolonged stretch.

    • Jaylen Brown finishes series with 25-point effort
      Jaylen Brown logged 26 minutes in Wednesday’s 118-184 win over the Heat, amassing 25 points (11-of-19 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), six rebounds, two assists, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: Brown recorded a solid point total, shooting well over 50% from the field, but efficiency remains problematic in other areas. In addition to committing five turnovers in the series decider, he shot 40% from the foul line. For the series, Brown was 9-of-20 (45%) from the charity stripe, which will not get it done against stronger opposition. Add in 16 turnovers in the five-game series, and Brown has some things to clean up before the second round begins. Boston will play Cleveland or Orlando, with the Cavs leading that series by three games to two. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:04 pm
       
    • Franz Wagner turns in 14/5/6/1/1 line in Game 5
      Franz Wagner posted a full line on Tuesday with 14 points (3-of-11 FGs), five rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block and one triple against the Cavaliers in Game 5.

      Advice: After being a hero in the Game 4 blowout win, Wagner wasn’t quite as effective in Game 5. However, he was still able to turn in a well-rounded stat line, which partially made up for the lack of scoring in DFS formats. Unfortunately, this type of performance isn’t going to be enough for them to win the series, and Wagner will have to get back on track in Game 6 in Orlando on Friday in order to force a Game 7 on Sunday.

    • Starts second half
      Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is starting the second half of Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope likely received additional treatment while in the locker room at halftime and will try yet again to give it a go. He suffered a left ankle sprain during the first quarter of Monday's matchup. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:28 pm
       
    • Back to locker room
      Caldwell-Pope walked back to the locker room during the second quarter of Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope suffered a sprained left ankle during the first quarter and didn't appear to be moving well after returning, per Benedetto. It's unclear whether he'll be able to come back for the second half. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:11 pm
       
    • Returns to action
      Caldwell-Pope (ankle) has been cleared to return to Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope spent a few minutes on an exercise bike after emerging from the locker room, and he was able to check into the game near the halfway mark of the second quarter. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:49 pm
       
    • Suffers ankle sprain
      Caldwell-Pope has been diagnosed with a left ankle sprain and is questionable to return to Monday's Game 5 against Los Angeles, Katy Winge of Altitude Sports reports.

      Advice: This is positive news for the Nuggets after it appeared Caldwell-Pope wasn't able to put any weight on his left leg immediately after suffering the injury. Christian Braun, Reggie Jackson and Justin Holiday will likely be asked to step up if Caldwell-Pope can't return. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:39 pm
