  • Kawhi Leonard (knee) questionable Friday
    Kawhi Leonard (right knee inflammation) is listed as questionable for the Clippers’ Friday matchup against the Mavericks.

    Advice: Leonard was underwhelming in his return to the hardwood in Game 2 with 15 points on 17 shots in a loss. Now he’s back on the injury report. Amir Coffey could return to the starting lineup if Leonard isn’t ready ahead of the weekend. Rotoworld 56 minutes ago
     
  • Listed questionable for Friday
    Gafford (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

    Advice: The questionable tag on Gafford is not surprising, as the big man missed Thursday's practice due to his lower back problem. If he can't go Friday, then Dereck Lively and Maxi Kleber are candidates to receive increased playing time. Rotowire.com Today, 3:38 pm
     
  • Questionable to play Friday
    Leonard is questionable for Game 3 against the Mavericks on Friday due to right knee inflammation, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

    Advice: Leonard posted 15 points and seven rebounds in his return to action in Game 2, and while he's included in the injury report ahead of Friday's decisive contest, he did log 35 minutes in Game 2, so he should be in line to handle his regular workload in a pivotal matchup at home.

  • Won't start Game 3
    Isaac is not in the starting lineup to face the Cavaliers on Thursday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Isaac started the first two games of the series, where he averaged 6.5 points and 4.5 rebounds across 24.5 minutes per contest, but he'll head back to the bench here. Wendell Carter will get the nod in the frontcourt alongside Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. Rotowire.com Today, 3:33 pm
     
  • Olivier-Maxence Prosper (ankle) out Friday
    Olivier-Maxence Prosper (left ankle sprain) has been ruled out for Friday’s Mavericks-Clippers game.

    Advice: Prosper has only logged one minute through Game 1 of his team’s first-round series so his absence won’t affect the rotation. Rotoworld Today, 2:39 pm
     
  • Chris Livingston (illness) doubtful Friday
    Chris Livingston (illness) is doubtful for the Bucks’ Friday matchup against the Pacers.

    Advice: Livingston logged four minutes of garbage time in Game 2 and isn’t likely to be a significant contributor in Game 3 whether he’s healthy or not. Rotoworld Today, 1:43 pm
     
  • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) doubtful Friday
    Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is listed as doubtful for the Bucks’ Friday matchup with the Pacers.

    Advice: Antetokounmpo still hasn’t made his 2024 NBA Playoffs debut and it appears like he’ll miss his team’s first road game of its series against Indiana ahead of the weekend. Bobby Portis will likely continue to start for Antetokounmpo. Rotoworld Today, 1:41 pm
     
  • Unlikely to play Friday
    Livingston is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Pacers due to a non-COVID illness.

    Advice: Livingston has only logged four total minutes through the first two games of Milwaukee's first-round series against Indiana, so his expected absence shouldn't affect the team's rotation. Rotowire.com Today, 1:39 pm
     
  • Questionable for Game 3
    Middleton (ankle) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against Indiana.

    Advice: Middleton suffered an ankle injury during Tuesday's Game 2 but was still able to play 36 minutes in the defeat. However, he didn't practice Thursday, and his status for Friday's game is up in the air. He'll presumably be monitored by the Bucks' medical staff in the hours leading up to tipoff before the team reveals his status. Rotowire.com Today, 1:36 pm
