  • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) available for Game 5
    Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder.

    Advice: As expected, Doncic is available for Wednesday’s pivotal Game 5. The injuries have factored into the Mavericks point guard’s inefficiency in this series, and he’ll need to be better if Dallas is to win and take a 3-2 lead. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:02 pm
     
  • Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle) ruled out Wednesday
    Craig Porter Jr. (left ankle sprain) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Celtics.

    Advice: Porter has not appeared in a game since Cleveland’s regular-season finale, and his absence has not impacted the rotation. That remains the case for Game 5, with the Cavaliers trailing three games to one. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:36 pm
     
  • Donovan Mitchell (calf) ruled out for Game 5 Weds.
    Donovan Mitchell (left calf strain) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Celtics.

    Advice: The status update is unsurprising, given that it was reported on Wednesday afternoon that Mitchell was expected to miss a second consecutive game. With Caris LeVert also out, Dean Wade moves into the starting lineup, and Isaac Okoro shifts from the four to the three. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:29 pm
     
  • Won't play Wednesday
    Porter (ankle) won't suit up for Wednesday's Game 5 in Boston, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

    Advice: Porter is set to miss his 12th straight game, and with Caris LeVert (knee) and Donovan Mitchell (calf) also out, Darius Garland will get all the run he can handle. There should also be ample minutes for Max Strus and Dean Wade. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:27 pm
     
  • Mike Conley (calf) questionable for Game 6 Thurs.
    Mike Conley (right soleus strain) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Nuggets.

    Advice: While Minnesota’s inability to defend Nikola Jokic was the biggest storyline in Game 5, Conley’s absence was also impactful. Nickeil Alexander-Walker moved into the starting lineup and was solid, but not having Conley on the court negatively impacted Anthony Edwards. Edwards had his worst game of the series, shooting 5-of-15 from the field and committing four turnovers. With Minnesota’s season on the line, they desperately need a healthy Conley on the court for Thursday night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:21 pm
     
  • Ruled out for Game 5
    Mitchell (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 in Boston, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.

    Advice: Mitchell will be joined on the sidelines by Caris LeVert (knee) and Jarrett Allen (ribs), leaving Cleveland quite thin going into a potential elimination game. Expect big minutes for Max Strus, Dean Wade and Sam Merrill, with Darius Garland and Evan Mobley doing the heavy lifting on offense. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:20 pm
     
  • Iffy for Game 6
    Conley (Achilles) is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Nuggets.

    Advice: Conley was a late addition to the injury report ahead of Game 5 due to right Achilles soreness and was ultimately unable to play, allowing Nickeil Alexander-Walker to get his first start of the postseason. If Conley is sidelined again, Monte Morris would be a candidate for double-digit minutes off the bench. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:11 pm
     
  • Questionable for Game 6
    Murray is questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf strain.

    Advice: After losing the first two games of the series, the Nuggets have won three straight and are on the verge of advancing to the Western Conference Finals for a second consecutive campaign. Murray scored at least 20 points in all five games against the Lakers during the opening-round series but has reached that mark only once versus Minnesota. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:38 pm
     
  • Jamal Murray (calf) questionable for Game 6 Thurs.
    Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Timberwolves.

    Advice: Murray continues to appear on the injury report, but the Nuggets point guard has yet to miss a game this postseason. Expect to see him on the court for Game 6 as the reigning champs look to close out the series. If not, Reggie Jackson will ascend into the starting lineup. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:36 pm
