    • Balanced outing in Game 4 loss
      Middleton finished with 25 points (9-22 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 40 minutes in Sunday's 126-113 loss to the Pacers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Middleton once again tried to do all he could to help lead the shorthanded Bucks past the Pacers in Game 4, leading all players in Sunday's contest in rebounds while handing out a handful of assists and ending as one of three players with 20 or more points in a losing effort. Expect Middleton to continue to try and lead the Bucks in a win-or-go-home Game 5 in Milwaukee, especially if Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) and Damian Lillard (Achilles) are unable to return for the elimination game.

    • Record performance in Game 4 win
      Brunson recorded 47 points (18-34 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 9-11 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and one block over 44 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 victory over Philadelphia in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Brunson put on a show Sunday to help New York take a commanding 3-1 lead against Philadelphia, leading all players in the contest in scoring and assists while setting a playoff career high in scoring and the most points scored by a Knicks players in a playoff game. Brunson has been on a tear as of late, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history with over 85 points and 20 assists in a two-game span. Rotowire.com Today, 5:40 pm
       
    • Likely to play in Game 5
      Davis (wrist) is probable for Monday's Game 5 against the Nuggets, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Davis was questionable for Saturday's Game 4 due to his left wrist sprain, but he suited up and tallied 25 points, 23 rebounds, six assists and a block in 42 minutes. Assuming he's available Monday, it seems unlikely that he'll face any restrictions. Rotowire.com Today, 4:46 pm
       
    • Officially available for Game 4
      Middleton (ankle) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Middleton was probable ahead of Sunday's matchup and will officially be available once again. The 32-year-old had a dominant effort during Friday's overtime loss, tallying 42 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in 41 minutes. Rotowire.com Today, 3:32 pm
       
    • Khris Middleton (ankle) available for Game 4 Sun.
      Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) is available for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: Middleton was initially probable for Game 4, so the status upgrade was expected. The Bucks are without Damian Lillard (Achilles) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) are out, so they will need high-level production from Middleton if they’re to even the series at two games apiece.

    • Remains out, but making progress
      Williamson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder.

      Advice: There was optimism that Williamson could return at some point in the postseason if New Orleans advanced, and that remains true as coach Willie Green said Sunday morning the superstar forward was cleared for stationary basketball drills, per Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans. However, Williamson still isn't running and remains out while rehabbing a left hamstring strain he suffered during the team's first Play-In Tournament game against the Lakers. The Pelicans season will be on the line Monday, so the positive update on Williamson may be for naught. Rotowire.com Today, 2:40 pm
       
    • Jalen Brunson makes Knicks history in Game 4 win
      Jalen Brunson shot 18-of-34 from the field and 9-of-11 from the foul line in Sunday’s 97-92 win over the 76ers, accumulating 47 points, four rebounds, 10 assists, one block, and two 3-pointers in 43 minutes.

      Advice: Brunson had a game for the ages on Sunday, leading the Knicks to a win that gave them a 3-1 series lead. Not only did he establish a new playoff career-high with 47 points, but this was also a Knicks franchise record (Bernard King held the record at 46). Another piece of history for Brunson: he became the first player in Knicks playoff history to drop a line of at least 40 points and 10 assists. There was an injury scare at the end of the third quarter, as Brunson appeared to tweak his right knee, but the All-Star guard returned after spending a few minutes in the locker room. The Knicks will look to close out the series in Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotoworld Today, 12:57 pm
       
    • Returns after brief absence
      Brunson (leg) has returned to Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: Brunson went to the locker room following the final play of the third quarter after appearing to bang knees with Kyle Lowry. Brunson was only in the locker room for a few minutes before being cleared to return. He's been stellar for the Knicks in Game 4, posting 38 points (15-26 FG) and 10 assists through three quarters.

    • Leaves Game 4 early
      Brunson went to the locker room following the final play of the third quarter during Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers due to an apparent right leg injury, Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Brunson has been stellar for the Knicks in Game 4, posting 38 points (15-26 FG) and 10 assists in 34 minutes, so his potential absence in the fourth quarter could be costly. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but Miles McBride figures to get plenty of run in Brunson's absence. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm
