Overview

Chandler revealed during Monday's exit interview that he caught the flu shortly before the playoffs began, which limited his effectiveness more than his stiff neck, the New York Times reports.
Recommendation: In actuality, the illness spurred a significant weight loss. Consequently, Chandler didn't log more than 30 minutes during the playoffs until Game 4 of the first round against Boston. His postseason averages reflect these happenings -- 5.7 points (on 53.8 percent shooting), 7.3 boards, and 1.2 blocks in 29.2 minutes -- which is well below the double-double he posted on a nightly basis in 2012-13.

Shumpert intends to play in the Las Vegas Summer League, the New York Times reports.
Recommendation: Shumpert wants to continue working on his game, with the preparation for Las Vegas and the tournament itself providing a great offseason opportunity for contact with the coaching staff. The games will act as the second-year pro's first sniff of summer league, as he was unable to participate heading into his first two seasons due to 2011's lockout and knee surgery in May of 2012.

Anthony's injured left shoulder will be examined by team doctors in the near future to discover the extent of the ailment and the best course of treatment, the New York Daily News reports.
Recommendation: Near the end of the regular season, Anthony suffered the initial injury, which he aggravated in Game of the first round against Boston. Since that game, he dealt with minor pain in the region but still managed to reach the 20-point threshold in his final seven games of the postseason. However, he hit just 41.6 percent of his field goals during that stretch, down from 44.9 percent during the regular season. He was certainly hampered by the concern, but luckily, the entire offseason is in front of him in case a surgery is required.
