  • Gets starting nod
    Achiuwa is in the starting lineup for Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Achiuwa will replace OG Anunoby (hamstring) in the starting five Friday. Achiuwa averaged 12.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.8 blocks, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 36.5 minutes across his previous 18 starting appearances this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:41 pm
     
  • Another absence coming
    Prosper (ankle) is out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Thunder.

    Advice: Prosper will miss his eighth straight contest Saturday due to a left ankle sprain. The rookie forward's absence won't impact Dallas' rotation. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:33 pm
     
  • Dean Wade (knee) questionable Saturday vs. Celitcs
    Dean Wade (right knee sprain) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday’s matchup between the Cavaliers and Celtics.

    Advice: Wade hasn’t played since the regular season so it’s unlikely that he’ll play a significant role if he’s cleared to play. He could cut into some of Tristan Thompson’s reserve minutes if made active, though. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:07 pm
     
  • Another absence coming
    Porter (ankle) won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Porter will miss his 10th straight game Saturday due to a left ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up is Game 4 on Monday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:47 pm
     
  • Remains sidelined
    Jerome (ankle) is out for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Jerome hasn't played since Oct. 27 due to a right ankle injury. It appears unlikely he will suit up this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:36 pm
     
  • Iffy for Game 3
    Wade (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

    Advice: Wade hasn't played since March 8 due to a right knee sprain. If Wade is upgraded to available, it remains to be seen how he will be featured in Cleveland's playoff rotation. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:33 pm
     
  • Still out for Game 2
    Prosper (ankle) will remain out for Thursday's Game 2 matchup with the Thunder.

    Advice: Prosper has seen action in just one postseason game to date, making a one-minute cameo in garbage time of the Mavericks' Game 1 win over the Clippers in the first round. He hasn't played since due to a left ankle sprain, but the rookie wouldn't be included in head coach Jason Kidd's rotation even if he were healthy. Rotowire.com Thursday, 5:27 pm
     
  • Not listed on injury report
    Morris (finger) is not on the injury report for Friday's Game 3 matchup with Denver.

    Advice: Morris exited Game 2 with a minor finger issue and did not return, but that won't impact his status for Game 3. He should again see limited minutes behind Mike Conley on Friday night. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:42 pm
     
  • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) questionable
    Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (left ankle sprain) is listed as questionable for Thursday’s Nuggets-Timberwolves game.

    Advice: KCP hasn’t been a factor on offense in the second round and his status for Game 3 is up in the air. Justin Holiday has provided a spark off the bench lately and will be asked to continue stepping up if KCP is ruled out. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:21 pm
