    • Doubtful for Game 4
      Lillard (Achilles) is doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 versus the Pacers,

      Advice: A report from Shams Charania of The Athletic on Friday hinted at this, but now the Bucks have officially listed Lillard as doubtful on their injury report. Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is also doubtful, so the Bucks will need guys like Khris Middleton, Bobby Portis and Brook Lopez to step up offensively. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Questionable for Sunday
      Robinson (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers.

      Advice: Robinson didn't participate in Saturday's practice and was spotted wearing a walking boot after Game 3 on Thursday, so his chances of playing are slim to none, given the recent developments. If that's the case, then Precious Achiuwa would operate as the primary backup behind Isaiah Hartenstein. Rotowire.com Today, 1:44 pm
       
    • Mitchell Robinson (ankle) questionable for Game 4
      Mitchell Robinson (left ankle sprain) is listed as questionable to play in Game 4 against the 76ers on Sunday.

      Advice: Robinson missed practice on Saturday after exiting early from Game 3 on Thursday. He was seen walking in a boot after the game, and this is the same ankle that he has surgery on in December. If he is forced to sit out, Precious Achiuwa should fill out the backup center minutes.

    • Jalen Suggs provides 12/2/3 line with 7 turnovers
      Jalen Suggs provided a solid line on Saturday with 12 points (4-of-7 FGs), two rebounds, three assists, two triples and seven turnovers against the Cavaliers.

      Advice: Suggs and Paolo Banchero struggled to take care of the ball in the first half and entered the break with a combined nine turnovers, with Suggs accounting for five of them. They cleaned things up in the second half, which helped them outscore the Cavs 61-29 over the final two quarters. Suggs had a big performance in Game 3, and while he wasn’t able to replicate that in Game 4, he was able to turn in a solid stat line, despite a rough first half. If they can take care of the ball in Game 5 on Tuesday, they may be able to steal one on the road. Rotoworld Today, 1:23 pm
       
    • Haynes: Lillard diagnosed with strained Achilles
      According to TNT’s Chris Haynes, Damian Lillard has been diagnosed with a Grade 1 left Achilles strain and is doubtful for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Lillard, who has been dealing with Achilles soreness for a few weeks, aggravated the issue during Friday’s Game 3 defeat. Unfortunately, he continued to struggle with the injury, ultimately being used as a decoy during the overtime period. In addition to being doubtful for Game 4, Lillard was seen wearing a walking boot on his left foot. Malik Beasley, Pat Connaughton, and AJ Green would be in play for additional minutes if he cannot play. Rotoworld Today, 9:56 am
       
    • Game 4 in doubt
      Lillard suffered a strained Achilles in Friday's loss to the Pacers and there is serious doubt over his availability for Game 4 on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Lillard was able to return to Game 3 after suffering the injury and finished the contest with 28 points (6-20 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 12-12 FT), eight assists, three steals and one rebound over 45 minutes. Final confirmation on his status Sunday will presumably come closer to game time. AJ Green, Andre Jackson and Malik Beasley would all be candidates to see increased minutes alongside Patrick Beverley in the backcourt should Lillard indeed need to sit out.

    • Does not practice Saturday
      Robinson (ankle) was a non-participant at Saturday's practice, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

      Advice: Robinson was seen wearing a walking boot on his sprained left ankle following an early exit in Thursday's 125-114 loss to the 76ers. He had accumulated two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 FT) and seven rebounds across 12 minutes before leaving. His absence from Saturdays' practice is not a good sign for his status for Sunday's Game 4, but the team has not ruled the big man out. If he ultimately does not get the green light, Precious Achiuwa figures to serve as the primary backup behind Isaiah Hartenstein. Rotowire.com Today, 9:15 am
       
    • Mitchell Robinson (ankle) did not practice Sat.
      Mitchell Robinson (left ankle sprain) did not participate in Saturday’s practice.

      Advice: Robinson injured his ankle, which was operated on in December, during the first of Thursday’s Game 3 loss to the 76ers. While missing practice is not a good sign regarding his availability for Sunday’s Game 4, Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said, “We’ll see where he’s at tomorrow” when asked about Robinson’s status. If he cannot play, look for Precious Achiuwa to move into the rotation as Isaiah Hartenstein’s backup. Rotoworld Today, 9:13 am
       
    • Royce O’Neale held scoreless as starter in Game 3
      Royce O’Neale got the start on Friday and finished with zero points (0-of-5 FGs), five rebounds and two assists against Minnesota.

      Advice: O’Neale moved into the starting unit in place of Grayson Allen, who was sidelined with an ankle injury. However, it wasn’t a good performance for O’Neale, and he wrapped up his scoreless night with an airball with less than a minute left. If Allen remains sidelined for Game 4 on Sunday, O’Neale may get another start, but they’ll need a lot more out of him if they want to extend the series. He played 24 minutes in this game after playing 17 in their last one, which was also a scoreless night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:56 pm
