  • 109-68-3 2nd Place
    • Luka Doncic rebounds, posts 31/10/11/0/1 stat line
      Luka Doncic shot 12-of-22 from the field and 2-of-3 from the foul line in Wednesday’s 104-92 win over the Thunder, accounting for 31 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists, one blocked shot, and five 3-pointers in 41 minutes.

      Advice: Injuries have been an issue for Doncic throughout this series, but there was also the habit of focusing too much on the officials. Playing with an apparent laser focus, the Mavericks point guard came up huge in Dallas’ Game 5 victory. Doncic recorded an efficient triple-double, shooting better than 50% from the field and controlling the action. With Kyrie Irving (12/2/4/1 with two 3-pointers in 39 minutes) taking a back seat offensively, the Mavericks need Doncic to be at his best. That was the case on Wednesday, and Game 6 isn’t until Saturday in Dallas. Doncic will get a welcome respite before the Mavericks look to end the series at home. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:58 pm
       
    • Good to go for Game 5
      Doncic (ankle/knee) is active and starting Wednesday's Game 5 against the Thunder.

      Advice: Doncic was initially labeled probable with lingering knee and ankle injuries, but, as expected, he will suit up for Wednesday's tilt. Considering he hasn't faced any restrictions since sustaining the injury, Doncic should see as many minutes as he can handle in the pivotal matchup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:14 pm
       
    • 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
       
    • 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
       
    • 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
       
    • Struggles in Game 5 loss
      Reid contributed seven points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one block in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 112-97 loss to the Nuggets in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Reid was a non-factor in the loss, continuing his recent struggles. Coming off a career-best regular season, Reid has been unable to produce consistently during the postseason. He has scored fewer than 15 points in eight of the Timberwolves' nine playoff games. Now facing a must-win matchup, Reid will look to turn things around in front of his home fans.

    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope hits four triples Tuesday
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope logged 38 minutes in Tuesday’s win over Minnesota, amassing 16 points (6-of-8 FGs), five rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four 3-pointers.

      Advice: With Michael Porter Jr. (6/7/1/0/2 with two 3-pointers) shooting 2-of-10 from the field, the Nuggets needed additional production from Caldwell-Pope. The veteran guard stepped up, with the 16 points and four 3-pointers being series-highs for him. KCP entered the series at less than full strength, impacting his production early on. But he looked sharp in Game 5, and the Nuggets are now one win away from a return to the Western Conference Finals. Game 6 is on Thursday night in Minneapolis. Rotoworld Tuesday, 10:18 pm
       
    • Ruled out for Game 5
      Conley (Achilles) won't play in Tuesday's Game 5 against the Nuggets, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Conley has been downgraded from questionable to out due to right Achilles soreness. In his absence, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Monte Morris will likely receive increased playing time. Conley's next chance to suit up is Game 6 on Thursday. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 6:59 pm
       
    • Shams: Mike Conley (Achilles) ruled out Tuesday
      According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Mike Conley (right Achilles soreness) is out for Tuesday’s Game 5 against the Nuggets.

      Advice: While Conley wasn’t added to the injury report until Tuesday afternoon, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said his point guard was injured on the final play of Sunday’s Game 4 defeat. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Nickeil Alexander-Walker being the most likely candidate to fill it. While Jordan McLaughlin and Monte Morris are traditional point guards, neither defends as well as NAW. Conley’s absence also means even more playmaking opportunities for Anthony Edwards, which could boost his points and assist overs. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:58 pm
