    • Remains out for Game 1 of ECF
      Porzingis (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Pacers.

      Advice: As expected, Porzingis will remain sidelined to start the Eastern Conference Finals due to a right calf strain he suffered in Boston's opening-round series versus Miami. The Latvian big man didn't practice Monday, so it doesn't appear he's close to game action. However, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Friday that Boston is optimistic that Porzingis could return at some point during the series versus Indiana. Rotowire.com Today, 2:07 pm
       
    • Doesn't practice Monday
      Porzingis (calf) didn't participate in Monday's practice session, Jay King of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Porzingis sustained a calf injury during the first round of the playoffs and isn't expected to be available for the start of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pacers. His absence from practice reflects that pessimism, while Al Horford and Luke Kornet should continue to see an uptick in playing time during Tuesday's Game 1. Rotowire.com Today, 9:53 am
       
    • Poor offensive showing Sunday
      Caldwell-Pope racked up five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Caldwell-Pope scored single digits for the sixth time in the past eight games, highlighting the Nuggets' struggles when it comes to depth on the offensive end. While he continues to play a key role for Denver, his lack of production cannot be ignored when it comes to fantasy value. Looking ahead to next season, there is no reason to think he will be anything more than a situational streamer, utilized for steals and threes. Rotowire.com Today, 4:01 am
       
    • Scores team-high 23 points
      McDaniels racked up 23 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 40 minutes during Sunday's 98-90 victory over the Nuggets in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: McDaniels scored 20-plus points for the second straight game, helping the Timberwolves to an impressive victory in Game 7. Although his offensive output can be inconsistent, he has been a little more reliable during the postseason. Coming up against the Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals, McDaniels is going to have to maintain his offensive mindset to contend with the likes of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.

    • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope posts 5/6/3/2/1 line Sun.
      Kentavious Caldwell-Pope played 40 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Timberwolves, tallying five points (2-of-7 FGs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: After hitting four 3-pointers and scoring 16 points in Game 5, Caldwell-Pope ended his season with a whimper. In Denver’s losses to the Timberwolves in games 6 and 7, KCP scored 14 points on 4-of-13 shooting from the field (3-10 3-pointers). The veteran guard has been a mainstay in the Nuggets starting lineup, providing solid fantasy value. Caldwell-Pope finished this season ranked just outside the top 100 in 9-cat formats, but few fantasy managers are willing to roll the dice on him that early in drafts. KCP had a Yahoo ADP of 139.6, and that’s unlikely to change in 2024-25. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:42 pm
       
    • Jaden McDaniels scores 23 points in Game 7 victory
      Jaden McDaniels played 39 minutes in Sunday’s 98-90 win over the Nuggets, amassing 23 points (7-of-10 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block, and three 3-pointers.

      Advice: Minnesota won the final two games of this series after getting blown out in Game 5, and McDaniels’ improved play had much to do with the turnaround. He scored 46 points in Games 6 and 7, shooting 15-of-20 from the field. Already a highly impactful defender, McDaniels’ progression as a scorer has paid dividends for the Timberwolves. He must continue that production in the Western Conference Finals, as McDaniels will likely be assigned Luka Doncic. Game 1 of that series is on Wednesday night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:50 pm
       
    • Triples-doubles in Game 6 win
      Doncic racked up 29 points (9-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals over 45 minutes during Saturday's 117-116 victory over Oklahoma City in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Doncic did just enough to get his team over the line, recording his third straight triple-double despite dealing with multiple injuries. Heading into the Western Conference Finals, Dallas will be hoping that Doncic can continue to play through his ailments. With a physical matchup almost certainly in the cards, Doncic is simply going to have to absorb any contact that might come his way while trying to maintain his composure.

    • Luka Doncic posts 29/10/10/2 line in Game 6 win
      Luka Doncic played 44 minutes in Saturday’s 117-116 win over the Thunder, tallying 29 points (9-of-15 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), 10 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals, and four 3-pointers.

      Advice: Doncic and the Mavericks are headed to the Western Conference Finals for the second time in three years. He struggled with multiple injuries throughout this series, but Luka continued to shoulder a heavy workload. The lone negative for Doncic in Game 6 was the turnovers, as he was responsible for seven. There was some early frustration with the officials, but Doncic managed his emotions well as the game progressed. Next up for Dallas is Denver or Minnesota, with Game 1 scheduled for Wednesday night.

    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) available for Game 6
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is available for Saturday’s game against the Thunder.

      Advice: Doncic’s status upgrade is unsurprising, as the Mavericks have taken the same approach throughout this series. Dallas will stick with the same starting five, with Luka being joined by Kyrie Irving, Derrick Jones Jr., PJ Washington, and Daniel Gafford. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:33 pm
