  • Jericho Sims (shoulder) active Thursday vs. 76ers
    Jericho Sims (right shoulder inflammation) is listed as active for the Knicks’ Thursday matchup against the 76ers.

    Advice: Sims hasn’t played in the playoffs yet and isn’t likely to be a factor in Game 6. Rotoworld Today, 2:14 pm
     
  • Steps up for Cleveland
    Morris finished Tuesday's 104-103 victory over Orlando in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 26 minutes.

    Advice: The Cavaliers were missing Jarrett Allen (ribs), and while Isaac Okoro drew the start, Morris stepped into the rotation and made a massive impact. Morris had a total of 15 minutes in this series before Tuesday, so credit to him for staying ready. For now, it remains unclear if Allen will be ready to return for Game 6 in Orlando on Friday.

  • Good to go Tuesday
    Sims (shoulder) is available for Tuesday's Game 5 agains the 76ers.

    Advice: Sims has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite right shoulder inflammation. However, the 25-year-old big man has yet to receive any playing time in the first four games of the series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:48 pm
     
  • 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 Monday, 11:47 pm
     
  • Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) cleared to play
    Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (left ankle sprain) will play in Game 4 against the Thunder on Monday.

    Advice: JRE played a total of five minutes over the first two games of this series, with all of that coming in the blowout loss in Game 2. He’ll like only see the floor in this game if the score gets lopsided. Rotoworld Monday, 4:41 pm
     
  • Available for Game 4
    Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been cleared to play in Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

    Advice: Robinson-Earl was added to the injury report as a game-time call due to a left ankle sprain, but he'll be available to take the floor if called upon. He hasn't had much of a role so far in this series, logging only five minutes in Game 2. Rotowire.com Monday, 4:11 pm
     
  • Jericho Sims (shoulder) probable Tuesday vs. 76ers
    Jericho Sims (right shoulder inflammation) is listed as probable for Tuesday’s Knicks-76ers game.

    Advice: Sims hasn’t played in a playoff game yet this year and isn’t likely to be part of the rotation on Tuesday. Rotoworld Monday, 3:04 pm
     
  • Likely to play in Game 5
    Sims is probable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the 76ers due to right shoulder inflammation.

    Advice: Sims hasn't appeared in the first four games of the Knicks' first-round series, but he's dealing with a shoulder issue ahead of Game 5. While he'll likely be able to suit up, Sims is unlikely to see much playing time, even if Mitchell Robinson (ankle) misses another contest. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:37 pm
     
  • Iffy for Monday
    Robinson-Earl is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder due to a left ankle sprain.

    Advice: It's unclear when Robinson-Earl suffered the injury, as he's played only five minutes across the first three games of the opening-round series and didn't see any action during Saturday's Game 3 loss. If Robinson-Earl is ruled out, his absence shouldn't impact the Pelicans' rotation. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:45 pm
