  • Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) questionable Wednesday
    Tim Hardaway Jr (right ankle sprain) is listed as questionable for the Mavericks’ Game 5 matchup against the Clippers on Wednesday.

    Advice: Hardaway has missed two straight games but could return to the fray on Wednesday. The Mavericks wing has only scored six points in the series, though. Rotoworld 14 minutes ago
     
  • Remains out
    Prosper (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Clippers, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

    Advice: Prosper will miss a third straight game due to a left ankle sprain. He played only one minute during Game 1 and didn't see the court in Game 2, so his prolonged absence hasn't impacted Dallas' rotation. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
     
  • Questionable for Game 5
    Hardaway (ankle) had a setback during Tuesday's scrimmage and is questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Clippers, ESPN's Tim MacMahon reports.

    Advice: Hardaway was reportedly moving really well during the scrimmage, so the Mavericks will be frustrated to see the guard suffer a setback. With this news, there may not be anymore clarity on his status until Wednesday's morning shootaround. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
     
  • Ramps up activity

    Advice: Hardaway has been sidelined for the past two games against the Clippers, and it remains to be seen if he'll be available for Game 5 on Wednesday. More clarity is expected on Hardaway's status when the Mavericks release their official injury report Tuesday evening. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
     
  • Barely noticeable Monday
    Love amassed zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in six minutes during Monday's 102-88 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Advice: Love logged just six minutes, failing to have any sort of real impact against an impressive Celtics squad. At this point in his career, Love doesn't have enough in the tank to provide Miami with meaningful production. As has been the case for the last few years, Love will not be a viable fantasy option next season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:47 pm
     
  • Pops for nine points in loss
    Mills closed Monday's 102-88 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with nine points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and one assist in 22 minutes.

    Advice: Mills played a few extra minutes in the loss as the Heat fell to the Celtics in Game 4. Although they managed to win away from home in Game 2, there is a decent chance this series will come to an end Wednesday. Beyond this season, it's hard to see Mills having any sustainable fantasy value. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:43 pm
     
  • Leads bench with 16 points
    Marshall recorded 16 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 22 minutes during Monday's 97-89 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Advice: Marshall turned in an efficient shooting performance, scoring nine of his 16 points from beyond the arc. He had an inconsistent series at best, as he was held to five points in two of his team's four matchups on the way to being swept. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:47 pm
     
  • Naji Marshall chips in 16 points off bench
    Naji Marshall provided a boost off the bench with 16 points (5-of-9 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one block and four triples against Oklahoma City on Monday.

    Advice: It didn’t end up meaning much, but Marshall had a solid series and ended it with an excellent offensive game off the bench. This was a new playoff career-high for points for him, and he is now set to enter unrestricted free agency. He has been a solid role player for New Orleans, and he may end up fetching a decent-sized contract for a new team this summer. Regardless of where he ends up, Marshall is far more valuable as a role player than he is in fantasy basketball. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:57 pm
     
  • Starts second half
    Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is starting the second half of Monday's Game 5 against the Lakers, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Advice: Caldwell-Pope likely received additional treatment while in the locker room at halftime and will try yet again to give it a go. He suffered a left ankle sprain during the first quarter of Monday's matchup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:28 pm
