    • Shines in Game 3 victory
      Haliburton closed Friday's 111-106 win over New York in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with 35 points (14-26 FG, 6-16 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes.

      Advice: The Pacers needed Haliburton to carry them offensively, and while Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner delivered impressive stat lines, Haliburton was the engine that kept the team going. This 35-point effort was a playoff-high mark during the current season, and he seems to be catching fire after surpassing the 30-point plateau in each of his last two appearances.

    • Jamal Murray bounces back, scores 24 points Friday
      Jamal Murray finished Friday’s Game 3 win over the Timberwolves with 24 points (11-of-21 FGs), four rebounds, five assists, three steals, and two 3-pointers in 38 minutes.

      Advice: Having struggled through a calf injury in the first two games, Murray appeared to benefit from the three days off between Games 2 and 3. He looked sharp on offense, shooting better than 50% from the field while tying for the team-high in scoring with Nikola Jokic. The question is how fresh Murray will be on Sunday night, as the Nuggets will only have one day off. He may appear on the injury report ahead of Game 4, but DFS players and bettors should operate under the assumption that Murray will play. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:17 pm
       
    • Responds with strong Game 3
      Murray finished with 24 points (11-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five assists, four rebounds and three steals over 38 minutes in Friday's 117-90 win over the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Murray came out of the gates with a sense of urgency and a prove-it mentality in Friday's much-needed win for Denver, posting a team-high-tying scoring total and leading all players in the contest in shots made while tallying a team-high-tying pair of steals in a balanced outing. Murray, who notched his only single-digit scoring game of the postseason in Game 2, bounced back with a big performance to help the Nuggets get back into the series against the Timberwolves. Murray has surpassed the 20-point mark in six of his eight playoff contests thus far. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:16 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton scores 35 in Game 3 victory
      Tyrese Haliburton shot 14-of-26 from the field and 1-of-1 from the foul line in Friday’s 111-106 win over the Knicks, finishing with 35 points, four rebounds, seven assists, two steals, one block, and six 3-pointers in 38 minutes.

      Advice: After scoring 34 points in Wednesday’s Game 2 defeat, Haliburton was one point better on Friday. And he was even more aggressive in looking for his shot, putting up 26 and shooting better than 50% from the field. And that didn’t crater his assist numbers, either, as Haliburton had two fewer (seven) than his total in Game 2. The lone concern for him heading into Game 4 on Sunday is health, as the Pacers point guard tweaked his right ankle on a layup attempt during the second half. Add a case of lower back spasms, and Haliburton may not be playing at full strength on Sunday afternoon. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:46 pm
       
    • Jamal Murray (calf) available for Game 3 Friday
      Jamal Murray (left calf strain) is available for Friday’s game against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: As expected, Murray is officially available for a game the Nuggets must win. Whether or not he’ll play at full strength is another matter. Look for Murray to do what he can to play better than he did in the first two games of this series. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:47 pm
       
    • Available for Game 3
      Murray (calf) is available for Friday's Game 3 against Minnesota.

      Advice: Murray has been a regular on the injury report since the end of Denver's first-round series against the Lakers, but he continues to push through his calf issue. Through the first two games against Minnesota, Murray has really struggled, going a combined 9-of-32 from the field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:36 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) active Friday vs. Knicks
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) has been upgraded from questionable to active for Friday’s Pacers-Knicks game.

      Advice: Haliburton is set to suit up once again. The Pacers point guard hasn’t missed any time because of his back spasms and should carry his usual workload. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:54 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Haliburton (back) is available for Friday's Game 3 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday despite dealing with lower back spasms. Haliburton is averaging 20.0 points, 8.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 3.5 steals in 35.5 minutes across the first two games of the series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:33 pm
       
    • Jarrett Allen (ribs) questionable Saturday
      Jarrett Allen (right rib contusion) is listed as questionable for Saturday’s Cavaliers-Celtics game.

      Advice: Allen is looking to return from a five-game hiatus this weekend. Cleveland’s usual starting center hasn’t played since the first round and will likely continue to be replaced by Isaac Okoro in the starting lineup if ruled out for Saturday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:02 pm
