  • Tyrese Haliburton ices Game 3 with floater
    Tyrese Haliburton recorded a triple-double on Friday with 18 points (8-of-22 FGs), 10 rebounds, 16 assists, one block and one triple in a 121-118 win over Milwaukee in Game 3.

    Advice: Haliburton didn’t score much throughout the game, but he came up big when they needed him to. He struggled with his deep-range shot (1-of-12), so he chose to attack the basket with the game tied in overtime. He ended up knocking down a floater and converting the and-one to give them a 3-point victory. This was just the fourth playoff triple-double in franchise histroy, which was enough to help them take a 2-1 lead in the series. He may not have many big scoring nights in this series, but he has 36 assists through three games and has peovided them with a ton of offense. Rotoworld 9 minutes ago
     
  • Steps up late in triple-double game
    Haliburton tallied 18 points (8-22 FG, 1-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 16 assists, 10 rebounds and one block over 46 minutes in Friday's 121-118 overtime win over Milwaukee in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals.

    Advice: Haliburton did a little bit of everything for Indiana in an overtime victory to break a series tie, including hitting the game-winning shot with 1.6 seconds remaining to put a cap on an impressive triple-double performance. Despite struggling from three, Haliburton led all players in Friday's contest in assists while leading the Pacers in rebounds and ending two points shy of the 20-point mark. Haliburton recorded his first triple-double of the postseason so far, tallying at least 10 points and 10 dimes in two games in the quarterfinals. Rotowire.com 41 minutes ago

  • Kawhi Leonard (knee) active Friday vs. Mavericks
    Kawhi Leonard (right knee inflammation) is listed as active for the Clippers’ Friday meeting with the Mavericks.

    Advice: Leonard was underwhelming in his first playoff game of the year but will run it back on Friday after scoring just 15 points in a Game 2 loss. Rotoworld Today, 3:48 pm
     
  • Good to go for Game 3
    Leonard (knee) is available for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Advice: After missing Sunday's Game 1 win due to knee inflammation, Leonard returned for Game 2 on Tuesday and put up 15 points, seven rebounds, four steals, two assists and a block in 35 minutes during a 96-93 loss, marking his first appearance since March 31. With the series tied at 1-1, Leonard's health and impact will be key to the Clippers' success. Despite suiting up for back-to-back games, the questionable tag may stick with Leonard for the rest of the postseason. Rotowire.com Today, 3:35 pm
     
  • Remains out for Game 3
    Rozier (neck) won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Rozier's absence streak will extend to nine games Saturday due to neck spasms. With Delon Wright (personal) questionable, Patty Mills could receive his first minutes of the series against Boston. Rozier's next chance to suit up is Game 4 on Monday. Rotowire.com Today, 2:35 pm
     
  • Iffy for Game 3
    Wright is questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics due to personal reasons.

    Advice: Wright starred off the bench during the Game 1 loss and posted 17 points, three assists and two steals in 26 minutes. However, he finished the Game 2 win with just five points and four rebounds in 20 minutes. Either way, his potential loss could be costly to a backcourt already playing without Terry Rozier (neck) and Josh Richardson (shoulder). Jimmy Butler also remains out.

  • Present at shootaround
    Leonard (knee), who is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, was present for the Clippers' morning shootaround, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Leonard returned from a nine-game absence during Tuesday's matchup against Dallas and continues to deal with knee inflammation ahead of Friday's game. However, his presence at shootaround is encouraging, and he appears to be trending in the right direction in the hours leading up to tipoff. Rotowire.com Today, 9:11 am
     
  • Puts up 22 points in Game 3 loss
    Reaves ended with 22 points (8-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and four steals across 41 minutes during Thursday's 112-105 loss to the Nuggets in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Advice: Reaves had two subpar showings in the first two games of the series, and even though he bounced back in Game 3, his efforts were not enough to lift the Lakers to victory. Reaves will aim to replicate these numbers in Game 4 on Saturday, as the Lakers need to win to avoid a first-round exit. Reaves is averaging 14.7 points per game in the series while shooting 45.9 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from deep. Rotowire.com Today, 6:18 am
