  • 98-202-15 15th Place
    • Double-doubles, swats three shots
      Turner notched 21 points (7-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 35 minutes during Friday's 111-106 victory over the Knicks in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Turner made his presence felt on both ends of the court Friday, tying his playoff-high mark in blocks while recording his first double-double of the current playoff run. The Pacers need Turner to continue making a two-way impact if they're going to turn things around in the series, especially considering how depleted the Knicks are in the frontcourt with Julius Randle (shoulder), Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and OG Anunoby (hamstring) all out for Game 4.

    • Alec Burks contributes 14 points in Game 3 loss
      Alec Burks finished Friday’s 111-106 loss to the Pacers with 14 points (4-of-6 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and two 3-pointers in 21 minutes.

      Advice: That’s right, Alec Burks. After playing for one minute in Game 2, the veteran wing was in the rotation on Friday because the Knicks did not have OG Anunoby (hamstring). Give Burks credit for staying ready, as he made his first four shots from the field and gave New York welcome production off the bench. While the Knicks’ saw their series lead cut in half, getting 24 points from Burks and Miles McBride (10/1/1/1 with two 3-pointers in 29 minutes) is a positive takeaway. New York’s reserves outscored their Pacer counterparts by a 24-14 margin in Game 3, but it wasn’t enough to get the Knicks the win. Burks and McBride will have to offer similar production in Game 4 on Sunday, as Anunoby is unlikely to be available. Rotoworld Friday, 7:16 pm
       
    • Myles Turner tallies 21 points, 10 rebounds Friday
      Myles Turner played 35 minutes in Friday’s Game 3 win over the Knicks, accounting for 21 points (7-of-13 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), 10 rebounds, one assist, three blocks, and two 3-pointers.

      Advice: Turner had his best all-around game of the series on Friday, as he surpassed the 20-point mark and recorded a double-double. The ten rebounds he corralled in Game 3 were one more than his total in Games 1 and 2, and he was also more of a deterrent at the rim (three blocks). While most of the focus ahead of Game 3 was on Tyrese Haliburton, and rightfully so, the Pacers also need a more consistent Turner on both ends of the floor. He played well on Friday and will look to do more of the same in Game 4 on Sunday afternoon. Rotoworld Friday, 6:50 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton scores 35 in Game 3 victory
      Tyrese Haliburton shot 14-of-26 from the field and 1-of-1 from the foul line in Friday’s 111-106 win over the Knicks, finishing with 35 points, four rebounds, seven assists, two steals, one block, and six 3-pointers in 38 minutes.

      Advice: After scoring 34 points in Wednesday’s Game 2 defeat, Haliburton was one point better on Friday. And he was even more aggressive in looking for his shot, putting up 26 and shooting better than 50% from the field. And that didn’t crater his assist numbers, either, as Haliburton had two fewer (seven) than his total in Game 2. The lone concern for him heading into Game 4 on Sunday is health, as the Pacers point guard tweaked his right ankle on a layup attempt during the second half. Add a case of lower back spasms, and Haliburton may not be playing at full strength on Sunday afternoon. Rotoworld Friday, 6:46 pm
       
    • 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 Friday, 3:54 pm
       
    • 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 Friday, 3:33 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 Thursday, 3:11 pm
       
    • Not listed on injury report
      Morris (finger) is not on the injury report for Friday's Game 3 matchup with Denver.

      Advice: Morris exited Game 2 with a minor finger issue and did not return, but that won't impact his status for Game 3. He should again see limited minutes behind Mike Conley on Friday night. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:42 pm
       
    • Cracks rotation Wednesday
      Burks closed Wednesday's 130-121 victory over the Pacers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with zero points (0-1 FG) in one minute.

      Advice: Burks dusted himself off Wednesday, leaving the bench for the first time this postseason. Jalen Brunson was forced to the locker room during the second quarter, affording one minute of playing time to Burks. Given Brunson was able to return to the game, it is unlikely we see Burks again anytime soon. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:44 pm
