  • Helped to locker room
    Jackson exited Monday's Game 2 against the Timberwolves with an apparent left ankle injury, Vincent Goodwill of Yahoo Sports reports.

    Advice: Jackson exited the contest with eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, and considering the deficit Denver faced when he left, it seems unlikely that he'll return. He'll be considered day-to-day until the team provides additional details on his status. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago
     
  • MIN starting Conley, Edwards, Jaden, Kyle, Towns
    Mike Conley, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Kyle Anderson, and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Monday’s game against the Nuggets.

    Advice: Leading the series one game to none, the Timberwolves are without Rudy Gobert (personal reasons) for Game 2. Filling the void is Anderson, but the Stifle Tower’s absence also places more responsibility on Towns. KAT has picked up some silly fouls in the past; Minnesota can’t afford to have him land in early foul trouble if they’re to take a 2-0 lead. Rotoworld Today, 6:37 pm
     
  • Steps into starting five
    Anderson will start Monday's Game 2 against the Nuggets.

    Advice: Anderson will take Rudy Gobert's (personal) spot in the starting lineup. Anderson didn't factor in much during Game 1, finishing with two points, two rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes of action. While Anderson is set to draw the start, look for Naz Reid to play a key role off the bench after dropping 14 points in the fourth quarter of Saturday's Game 1. Rotowire.com Today, 6:37 pm
     
  • Ruled out for Game 1
    Jerome (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against Boston.

    Advice: Jerome hasn't suited up since late October due to ankle surgery. He'll remain sidelined to begin the Cavaliers' second-round series, and it's unclear when or if he'll be able to return during the playoffs. Rotowire.com Today, 2:39 pm
     
  • Still out
    Porter (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Porter didn't play during the opening-round series and will remain sidelined to start the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Even if the undrafted rookie is cleared, he isn't guaranteed playing time in the postseason. Rotowire.com Today, 2:38 pm
     
  • Remains out
    Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Wade hasn't played since March 8 due to a right knee sprain. It's unclear if he'll get the green light at any point during the Eastern Conference Semifinals, but unless Cleveland provides an update, Wade can be considered day-to-day. Rotowire.com Today, 2:37 pm
     
  • Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) available Tuesday
    Tim Hardaway Jr. is available for Tuesday’s Game 1 against the Thunder.

    Advice: THJ sat out Games 3-6 of Dallas’ first-round series against the Clippers, but he’ll be good to go for Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. He averaged 14.4 points and 2.7 triples in the regular season, so his return will be a welcomed sight to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving thanks to his scoring and floor spacing.

  • Remains out for Game 1
    Prosper (ankle) won't play in Game 1 against the Thunder on Tuesday, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

    Advice: This will be the fifth game in a row on the shelf for Prosper, and he remains without a timetable for a return. Rotowire.com Today, 10:48 am
     
  • Available for Game 1
    Hardaway (ankle) will be available for Game 1 against the Thunder on Monday, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

    Advice: This was the expectation when Hardaway made it through practices on Sunday and Monday. While this is great news for Dallas, it will be interesting to see how many minutes he's allotted because he's been struggling mightily with his shot. Rotowire.com Today, 10:38 am
