  • Likely available Saturday
    Kornet (calf) is probable for Saturday's Game 3 in Miami.

    Advice: After starting the final two regular-season games while the usual starters rested, Kornet was sidelined for the first two postseason games while rehabbing a calf injury. Even if he gets the green light, Kornet isn't guaranteed a significant role, especially if Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis remain healthy. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago

    Reggie Jackson (left ankle) is listed as questionable for the Nugget’s Saturday matchup with the Lakers.

    Advice: Jackson is still hobbled after tweaking his ankle on Thursday and his availability for Saturday is up in the air. His absence isn’t likely to affect the rotation much. Rotoworld 37 minutes ago

    Advice: Middleton has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday despite suffering a right ankle sprain in Game 2. There is no indication that the 32-year-old forward will be on a minutes restriction. Middleton is averaging 19.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists in 35.5 minutes across the first two games of the series against Indiana. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
     
  • Questionable for Saturday
    Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's Game 4 against the Lakers, Brendan Vogt of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Advice: Jackson left the Nuggets' Game 3 win Thursday in the third quarter and was unable to return, finishing with five points and an assist in seven minutes. Coach Michael Malone said Friday that Jackson has a sprained left ankle and is wearing a preventative boot. With the Nuggets leading the series 3-0, the team will likely be cautious with the 34-year-old. Rotowire.com Today, 1:01 pm
     
  • Practices Friday
    Nance (undisclosed) was a full participant in practice Friday, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

    Advice: Nance left Wednesday's Game 2 loss to the Thunder in the third quarter favoring his right leg and grabbed at his ankle as he walked to the locker room. He didn't play at all in the final frame. On Friday, coach Willie Green said that despite the soreness, Nance "went through a full practice." This is good news for the Pelicans, who are still without Zion Williamson (hamstring). Rotowire.com Today, 12:47 pm
     
  • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) officially out Friday
    Giannis Antetokounmpo (left soleus strain) is out for Friday’s matchup with the Pacers.

    Advice: Giannis will miss a third straight playoff game as the series with the Pacers shifts to Indiana. Bobby Portis usually balls out when Giannis is sidelined, and Portis will be expected to shoulder a heftier load once again. Rotoworld Today, 10:26 am
     
  • Present at shootaround
    Leonard (knee), who is questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Mavericks, was present for the Clippers' morning shootaround, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Leonard returned from a nine-game absence during Tuesday's matchup against Dallas and continues to deal with knee inflammation ahead of Friday's game. However, his presence at shootaround is encouraging, and he appears to be trending in the right direction in the hours leading up to tipoff. Rotowire.com Today, 9:11 am
