  • 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.

  • Luke Kornet (calf) cleared to play in Game 3
    Luke Kornet (left calf strain) will be available to play in Game 3 against Miami on Saturday.

    Advice: Kornet is back after missing Games 1 and 2 with this calf injury, but it is unlikely that he sees the floor if this game remains close. He is a solid depth piece, but Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford will fill the center minutes. Rotoworld Today, 1:16 pm
  • Available to play Saturday
    Kornet (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

    Advice: The availability of Kornet means the Celtics will be at full strength for Game 3 of the series against the Heat. Kornet should see minutes off the bench, though he's likely to have a very limited role with both Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford available. Rotowire.com Today, 1:12 pm
  • Evan Mobley turns in 14/9/3/2/2 line in Game 4
    Evan Mobley posted a full line with 14 points (6-of-13 FGs), nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks against the Magic on Saturday.

    Advice: Mobley scored 12 of his 14 points before halftime, and he was able to turn in a complete line in the Game 4 loss. This was a solid performance in the box score for him, but the second half was a disappointment for the team. Mobley didn’t do much in 22 minutes in the blowout loss in Game 3, but he was more effective in this game. With the series tied 2-2, they’ll need another performance like this out of Mobley in order to secure the Game 5 win at home on Tuesday. Rotoworld Today, 12:56 pm
  • Jarrett Allen leads Cavs with 21/9 line in loss
    Jarrett Allen led Cleveland with 21 points (8-of-11 FGs), nine rebounds and one steal in a 112-89 loss to the Magic in Game 4 on Saturday.

    Advice: Like everyone on Cleveland, most of Allen’s production came in the first half, and he only added five points after the break. The team only had 29 points after halftime, with some of that coming in garbage time. The Cavs couldn’t get anything going in the second half, but Allen was still able to have some success, which has been the case for most of this series. Allen’s numbers were better in their home games, and the series will shift back to Cleveland for Game 5. Allen will need to control the glass if they want to avoid going down 3-2 in this series.

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo doubtful to play in Game 4
    Doc Rivers said that he “doubts” that Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) will play in Game 4 against Indiana on Sunday.

    Advice: Rivers did say that Giannis will work out early on Sunday before they decide if he will play in Game 4, so there is still certainly a chance. However, Rivers was pessimistic about the odds. Bobby Portis should continue to start at power forward in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 11:03 am
  • Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) out for Game 3 Sat.
    Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (left ankle sprain) is out for Saturday’s game against the Thunder.

    Advice: Robinson-Earl is a late addition to the injury report. However, his absence will not impact the Pelicans’ rotation, as he played a total of five minutes in the first two games of this series. Rotoworld Today, 10:38 am
  • 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
