  • 13-7-0 5th Place
    • Available Sunday
      Caldwell-Pope (abdomen) will play in Sunday's Game 4 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope was deemed questionable ahead of gametime due to a right abdominal contusion, but he will suit up for Sunday's matchup. Battling through the same injury in Game 3, Caldwell-Pope logged 37 minutes, so he should be in for a full workload Sunday. Rotowire.com 18 minutes ago
       
    • Josh Hart limited to 24 minutes in Game 4 loss
      Josh Hart shot 1-of-6 from the field in Sunday’s loss to the Pacers, accounting for two points, three rebounds, and two assists in 24 minutes.

      Advice: Like many of the Knicks’ available rotation players, Hart appeared to be running on empty in Game 4. He was subbed out far earlier than usual (if he sits at all), and the nature of Sunday’s game led to Hart only playing 24 minutes. The 121-89 loss was a “burn the tape” game for New York, with the additional rest for Hart and the other mainstays in the rotation being the lone positive. The series is tied at two games apiece, with Game 5 set for Tuesday night. Rotoworld Today, 3:08 pm

    • Questionable for Game 4
      Caldwell-Pope is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against the Timberwolves with a right abdominal contusion.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope will land a questionable designation for a second consecutive contest due to a bruised abdomen. He was able to play through the injury in Game 3 and logged 37 minutes, so there should be a level of optimism ahead of Sunday's tilt. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:06 pm
       
    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) questionable Sun.
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (left ankle sprain) is questionable for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: While he hasn’t been healthy, Caldwell-Pope has continued to play starters’ minutes as the Nuggets look to repeat as champions. Look for him to do the same on Sunday, as KCP is Denver’s best option to defend Anthony Edwards. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:38 pm
       
    • Pulls down 18 boards in Game 3 loss
      Hart posted 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 18 rebounds, four assists and two steals over 43 minutes during Friday's 111-106 loss to Indiana in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Hart didn't do much on the offensive end of the court and barely reached double-digit scoring, but as has been the case all year long, he made his presence felt on the glass. The 18 rebounds represented his best output in the current playoff run in that category, and he's grabbed double-digit boards in all but two of his nine playoff appearances. He's averaging 17.1 points and 13.3 rebounds per game in the postseason so far. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:15 am

    • Michael Porter Jr. hits four 3-pointers in Game 3
      Michael Porter Jr. recorded a line of 21 points (6-of-10 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, and four 3-pointers in 30 minutes in Friday’s Game 3 win over the Timberwolves.

      Advice: After scoring 20 points in Game 1, Porter had a brutal Game 2. He wasn’t the only Nuggets player who needed to redeem himself in Game 3, and MPJ came through with timely perimeter shooting. He’s scored at least 20 points in six of his last seven playoff games, and he finished Game 3 one blocked shot shy of his third straight full stat line. Also shooting the ball well from three for Denver was Aaron Gordon, who was 3-of-4 from deep and finished with 13 points, two rebounds, five assists, and two steals in 33 minutes. Given the amount of attention Minnesota has paid Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, there will be opportunities for Porter and Gordon to flourish. They took advantage on Friday and must do the same in Game 4 on Sunday. Rotoworld Friday, 9:18 pm
       
    • Strong from deep in 21-point Game 3
      Porter ended with 21 points (6-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 30 minutes in Friday's 117-90 win over the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Porter provided a nice lift offensively for Denver in its first win of the conference semifinals, leading all Nuggets in threes made while ending as one of three players with 20 or more points in Game 3. Porter had a bounce-back performance after failing to reach double figures in scoring in Game 2, and he has now posted 20 or more points in two of the three games against Minnesota.

    • Nears triple-double in Game 3 win
      Jokic notched 24 points (10-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, nine assists, three blocks and three steals over 38 minutes in Friday's 117-90 win over the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Jokic did a little bit of everything for Denver in a much-needed Game 3 win on the road, leading all players in Friday's contest in rebounds, assists and blocks while adding a team-high-tying trio of steals and concluding as one of three Nuggets with 20 or more points. Jokic, who ended one dime shy of a triple-double, tallied his second straight double-double and has posted at least 15 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in every game of the conference semifinals thus far. Jokic looked much more comfortable in Game 3 than we saw earlier in the series, which could be great news for Denver as it tries to even the series. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:17 pm
       
    • Nikola Jokic records 24/14/9/3/3 line in Game 3
      Nikola Jokic tallied 24 points (10-of-18 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 14 rebounds, nine assists, three steals, three blocks, and one 3-pointer in 38 minutes in Friday’s 117-90 win over Minnesota.

      Advice: Many pundits wanted to see an “MVP caliber” performance from Jokic in Game 3 and the NBA’s Most Valuable Player delivered on Friday. The Joker finished one assist shy of a triple-double while recording a full stat line with six “stocks.” Jokic thoroughly outplayed the Minnesota big men, with Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid combining for 13 points, six rebounds, and no blocked shots. He’ll look to produce another effort of this caliber in Game 4 on Sunday, as Minnesota still holds a two games to one lead. Rotoworld Friday, 9:16 pm
