    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) progresses to on-court work
      Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said before Tuesday’s Game 5 against the Pacers that OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) has progressed to doing some on-court rehab work.

      Advice: Injured during the third quarter of the Knicks’ Game 2 victory, Anunoby has not played since. He was already ruled out for Game 5, and the progression to on-court work is progress. However, he still is not a full go, so it appears to be a long shot that Anunoby will be available for Game 6 on Thursday. Precious Achiuwa will remain in the starting lineup, with Miles McBride playing additional minutes off the bench. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
       
    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) probable for Game 5 Wed.
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is probable for Wednesday’s game against Oklahoma City.

      Advice: Doncic remains on the injury report ahead of Wednesday’s crucial Game 5 but is listed as probable instead of questionable. He’ll be on the court; the question is how effective the Mavericks point guard will be. He’s looked frustrated during this series, and not being fully healthy doesn’t help matters. While Doncic recorded a triple-double in Monday’s Game 4 defeat, he shot 6-of-20 from the field and committed seven turnovers. Rotoworld 26 minutes ago
       
    • Expected to play Wednesday
      Doncic (knee/ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's Game 5, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Doncic continues to deal with a right knee sprain and left ankle soreness but is expected to suit up yet again. Doncic is averaging 41.0 minutes per contest across the first four games of the series and is unlikely to operate under a minutes restriction in Game 5. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
       
    • Progressing in recovery
      Coach Tom Thibodeau said Tuesday that Anunoby (hamstring) is getting in some "light work on the court", Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

      Advice: Anunoby has already been ruled out for Game 5 on Tuesday, marking his third straight absence due to a left hamstring strain. While the 25-year-old forward is progressing in his recovery, his status for Game 6 on Friday is in doubt. Rotowire.com 37 minutes ago
       
    • Posts triple-double Monday
      Doncic provided 18 points (6-20 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 42 minutes during Monday's 100-96 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: On the surface, Doncic's final stat line looks good, as he posted his second triple-double of the postseason and made his presence felt on the defensive end. However, the star guard is battling with several injuries, and he looked a step slow in some sequences and was extremely inefficient with his shot. Doncic is averaging 22.0 points, 10.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game in the series against the Thunder, and the decrease in the scoring column is directly tied to the fact he's shooting a mere 39 percent from the floor. He'll aim to bounce back in Game 5 on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:09 am
       
    • Luka Doncic posts inefficient triple-double Monday
      Luka Doncic recorded a triple-double on Monday with 18 points (6-of-20 FGs), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals, one block, two triples and seven turnovers against the Thunder in Game 4.

      Advice: As Doncic continues to play through multiple lower body injuries, his numbers have understandably suffered. Outside of Game 2, his shooting in this series has been way below average. He shot poorly in the first round as well, but it was covered up by gaudy numbers and wins. Injuries aren’t an excuse in the playoffs, and Dallas simply needs more out of their superstar if they want to win another game in OKC. The good news is that it doesn’t get much worse than 6-of-20 shooting and seven turnovers. He’ll look to bounce back in Game 5 on Wednesday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:52 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (knee, ankle) available for Game 4
      Luka Doncic (right knee sprain, left ankle soreness) will play in Game 4 against the Thunder on Monday.

      Advice: As expected, Doncic has been cleared to play in Monday’s game as Dallas looks to take a 3-1 lead in the series. He only had 22 points in Saturday’s win, but he also added 15 rebounds and five assists. He should continue to put up big numbers moving forward. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:01 pm
       
    • Cleared for Game 4
      Doncic (knee) will play in Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Doncic took a step in the right direction by participating in morning shootaround, and he's since been given the green light to suit up for Monday's matchup. The star point guard has been held in check by his standards through the first three games of the series, knocking down 42.1 percent of his tries from the field and 35.0 percent from downtown.

    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) out again for Game 5
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring) will remain sidelined for Game 5 against Indiana on Tuesday.

      Advice: Unsurprisingly, Anunoby will remain sidelined for another game of this series. There were reports that suggested this might be the case, and now it’s official. It’s unclear if he could return for Game 6, but Precious Achiuwa should continue to start until OG is back. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:34 pm
