    • Karl-Anthony Towns turns in 28/10/3 in Game 4 win
      Karl-Anthony Towns turned in 28 points, 10 rebounds, three assists and four triples across 39 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Suns.

      Advice: Towns had his best game of the series, and the timing was perfect for Minnesota. Anthony Edwards led the way with 40 points, but KAT was the Wolves’ next highest scorer, and he chipped in his second straight double-double. Towns averaged just 25 minutes in Games 1-3, but he saw increased playing time, while Rudy Gobert played only 25 minutes. Minnesota will face the winner of the Nuggets-Lakers series in the Western Conference semifinals. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:04 pm
       
    • Record performance in Game 4 win
      Brunson recorded 47 points (18-34 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 9-11 FT), four rebounds, 10 assists and one block over 44 minutes during Sunday's 97-92 victory over Philadelphia in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Brunson put on a show Sunday to help New York take a commanding 3-1 lead against Philadelphia, leading all players in the contest in scoring and assists while setting a playoff career high in scoring and the most points scored by a Knicks players in a playoff game. Brunson has been on a tear as of late, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history with over 85 points and 20 assists in a two-game span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:40 pm
       
    • Probable for Game 5
      James (ankle) is probable for Monday's Game 5 against the Nuggets, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: James continues to deal with left ankle peroneal tendinopathy ahead of Game 5, but he'll likely be able to suit up once again. Over the first four matchups in the series, he's averaged 27.3 points, 8.3 assists, 6.3 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 40.0 minutes per game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:45 pm
       
    • Jalen Brunson makes Knicks history in Game 4 win
      Jalen Brunson shot 18-of-34 from the field and 9-of-11 from the foul line in Sunday’s 97-92 win over the 76ers, accumulating 47 points, four rebounds, 10 assists, one block, and two 3-pointers in 43 minutes.

      Advice: Brunson had a game for the ages on Sunday, leading the Knicks to a win that gave them a 3-1 series lead. Not only did he establish a new playoff career-high with 47 points, but this was also a Knicks franchise record (Bernard King held the record at 46). Another piece of history for Brunson: he became the first player in Knicks playoff history to drop a line of at least 40 points and 10 assists. There was an injury scare at the end of the third quarter, as Brunson appeared to tweak his right knee, but the All-Star guard returned after spending a few minutes in the locker room. The Knicks will look to close out the series in Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:57 pm
       
    • Returns after brief absence
      Brunson (leg) has returned to Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: Brunson went to the locker room following the final play of the third quarter after appearing to bang knees with Kyle Lowry. Brunson was only in the locker room for a few minutes before being cleared to return. He's been stellar for the Knicks in Game 4, posting 38 points (15-26 FG) and 10 assists through three quarters.

    • Leaves Game 4 early
      Brunson went to the locker room following the final play of the third quarter during Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers due to an apparent right leg injury, Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Brunson has been stellar for the Knicks in Game 4, posting 38 points (15-26 FG) and 10 assists in 34 minutes, so his potential absence in the fourth quarter could be costly. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but Miles McBride figures to get plenty of run in Brunson's absence. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:10 pm
       
    • Mixed results in Game 4
      Suggs registered 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 win over the Cavaliers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Suggs exploded for 24 points (9-11 FG) during Orlando's Game 3 win and was productive again in Game 4 as the Magic evened the series at 2-2. However, he committed seven turnovers Saturday after coughing the ball up only three times over the prior three matchups. Despite inconsistent production to start the postseason, Suggs has been one of the Magic's top overall producers, averaging 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 29.8 minutes across four games.

    • Another quiet outing
      Strus produced seven points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 loss to the Magic in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Strus has failed to score more than seven points in four straight games to start the postseason. He's shot 38.5 percent from the field during that stretch. Strus grabbed only two rebounds during the two losses in Orlando after totaling 18 boards across the two wins in Cleveland. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:23 am
       
    • Shines with 30-point game Saturday
      James ended with 30 points (14-23 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 39 minutes during Saturday's 119-108 victory over the Nuggets in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

      Advice: The Lakers are still alive in the series against the Nuggets, and James became just the fourth player in NBA history to record a 30-point playoff game at the age of 39 or older, joining Reggie Miller, Karl Malone and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on that exclusive list. James has surpassed the 25-point mark in each of the four games in this series, and the Lakers will need him to be at his best once again if they want to avoid elimination in Game 5 on Monday.
