  • Questionable for Game 2
    Zeller is questionable for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday due to a sprained right foot, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Advice: Zeller was held scoreless across seven minutes of action in Game 1 and appears to have picked up a foot sprain during the contest. Though he plays an auxiliary role as Miami's backup center, his potential absence could open the door for Kevin Love to rejoin the rotation. Rotowire.com Today, 4:47 pm
     
  • Unavailable for Game 2
    Herro (hand) is listed as out for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Advice: Though there had been rumors swirling that Herro could come back for Game 2, it appears the guard will be held out at least one more game as he continues to recover from a hand surgery that stemmed from an injury dating back to the first round of the playoffs. Though it's unlikely, the Heat could still upgrade Herro prior to tipoff, making his status something to monitor for managers leading up to Sunday's 8:00 ET start. Rotowire.com Today, 4:43 pm
     
  • Officially questionable
    Martin (illness) is questionable for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Advice: Martin wasn't able to practice Saturday due to a non-COVID illness and has been handed a questionable tag ahead of Sunday's tilt. Though he is highly incentivized to play through the issue given Miami's 1-0 deficit, managers will likely have to check back in closer to tipoff to get an update on his status.

  • Caleb Martin (illness) will not practice Saturday
    Caleb Martin (illness) will not practice on Saturday ahead of Game 2 on Sunday. 

    Advice: After starring during the Eastern Conference Finals against Boston, Martin wasn’t able to get much going offensively in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. He won’t practice the day before Game 2, but it’s hard to imagine it keeping him out of a game unless it’s serious. If he doesn’t suit up, Kevin Love, Haywood Highsmith and Duncan Robinson could see increased roles. Highsmith shined in Game 1 with 18 points off the bench.  NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 3:01 pm
     
  • Dealing with illness
    Martin missed Saturday's practice due to a non-COVID illness.

    Advice: After falling flat in Game 1 and mustering up just three points over 25 minutes, Martin could not attend Saturday's practice and appears to be battling an illness. Though it's unclear if the illness played a role in his Game 1 struggles, it's likely he won't be feeling 100 percent for Sunday's Game 2 if he suits up. We'll get more information regarding Martin's status when the Heat release their official injury report. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm
     
  • Julius Randle undergoes arthroscopic ankle surgery
    The Knicks announced that Julius Randle underwent a successful arthroscopic procedure on his left ankle on Friday. 

    Advice: Randle, who initially injured his left ankle late in the regular season, was hampered by the issue throughout the team's playoff run. The two-time All-Star reinjured his ankle during Game 5 of the Knicks' first-round series against the Cavaliers and did not look like himself at all during the second round. According to the team, Randle is expected to resume basketball activities at some point this summer. He finished this season as a top 75 player in 9-cat formats, rebounding after a disappointing 2021-22 campaign. Having a full season with Jalen Brunson under his belt should help Randle maintain that status, if not exceed it, in 2023-24.  NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 10:48 am
     
  • Domantas Sabonis (thumb) hoping to avoid surgery
    Domantas Sabonis was due to undergo another scan on his injured right thumb on Thursday and hopes to avoid having to undergo surgery. 

    Advice: Sabonis played a significant chunk of the season with an avulsion fracture in his right thumb. He had the thumb scanned immediately after the Kings' season concluded and was due to undergo another evaluation on Thursday. The hope is that Sabonis will be able to avoid surgery this summer. The results of the second scan and ensuing treatment plan will impact his availability for Lithuania in this summer's FIBA World Cup. NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 10:17 am
     
  • Undergoes arthoscopic ankle surgery
    Randle has undergone arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle and is not expected to resume basketball activities until later this summer, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

    Advice: After spraining his left ankle in the Knicks' Round 1 series victory over the Cavaliers, the issue continued to linger for Randle throughout the remainder of their playoff run. The veteran big man opted to clean things out in his ankle, and thus will be limited in his offseason training until things ramp up towards the end of summer. He averaged a career-high 25.1 points per game this past season to go along with 10.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 0.6 steals, 0.3 blocks and 2.8 triples in 35.5 minutes per game.

  • Woj: Danuel House picks up 2023-24 player option
    Danuel House has picked up his $4.3M player option for the 2023-24 season, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

    Advice: House played in a reserve role off the bench for the Sixers this season. In 56 games he averaged 4.8 points per game and shot just over 47% from the field. With a new coaching staff in place and a roster that might look very different come training camp, House has the potential to see himself in a bigger role next season, however time will tell.
