    • Reggie Jackson (calf) questionable Thursday
      Reggie Jackson (left calf contusion) is listed as questionable for the Nuggets’ Thursday matchup against the Timberwolves.

      Advice: Jackson hasn’t been helpful against Minnesota so far. Christian Braun will benefit from getting some extra reserve minutes should Jackson be ruled out. Rotoworld Today, 2:30 pm
       
    • Deemed questionable Friday
      Jackson is listed as questionable for Friday's Game 3 against the Timberwolves due to a left calf contusion.

      Advice: Jackson is in danger of missing Friday's contest after suffering a left calf injury in Game 2. If Jackson is unable to suit up, Christian Braun and Justin Holiday are candidates to receive increased playing time. Rotowire.com Today, 1:37 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (knee) probable for Game 2 Thursday
      Luka Doncic (right knee sprain) is probable to play in Game 2 against the Thunder on Thursday.

      Advice: Head coach Jason Kidd said that Doncic was able to fully participate in practice, so he should be able to be available once again despite this knee sprain. He’ll look to bounce back after only scoring 19 points in Game 1. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:05 pm
       
    • Practices, probable for Game 2
      Coach Jason Kidd said Doncic (knee) practiced Wednesday and is probable for Thursday's Game 2 against the Thunder, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Doncic continues to play through a right knee sprain but was far from his best in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals, as he finished with 19 points (6-19 FG) and five turnovers. The MVP candidate is shooting just 39.5 percent during the postseason but remains productive and is averaging 28.3 points, 9.4 assists, 8.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 42.3 minutes per game.

    • Luka Doncic held to 19 points in Game 1 loss
      Luka Doncic struggled on Tuesday and only finished with 19 points (6-of-19 FGs, 6-of-10 FTs), six rebounds, nine assists, two steals, one triple and five turnovers against Oklahoma City in Game 1.

      Advice: Lu Dort had Doncic in the Dorture Chamber in this game, which is a matchup that Mark Daigneault will continue to deploy. However, that doesn’t mean that it will continue to work like it did in this game. Luka deals with the full attention of the opposing team’s best defender every night, so this is nothing new. As one of the league’s best players, Doncic should be able to bounce back in Game 2 on Thursday, and if Dallas wants to steal a game in OKC, they’ll need him to. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:21 pm
       
    • Good to go Tuesday
      Doncic (knee) is available for Tuesday's Game 1 against the Thunder, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.

      Advice: Doncic has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite a sprained right knee. Doncic averaged 34.0 points, 13.5 assists, 11.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in 38.5 minutes across his two appearances against the Thunder in the regular season.

    • Luka Doncic (knee) cleared to play in Game 1
      Luka Doncic (right knee sprain) will play in Game 1 against the Thunder on Tuesday.

      Advice: As expected, Luka will be available to play after initially being listed as probable. He continues to deal with this sprain in his right knee, but it hasn’t forced him to miss a postseason game, and it is unlikely that it will. Rotoworld Tuesday, 5:06 pm
       
    • Reggie Jackson (calf) exits during fourth quarter
      Reggie Jackson (left calf tightness) tallied three points (1-of-6 FGs), two rebounds, one assist, and one 3-pointer in 10 minutes in Monday’s Game 2 loss to Minnesota.

      Advice: Already dealing with a sore left ankle, Jackson hobbled off the court during the fourth quarter with tightness in his left calf. While Denver announced that he was questionable to return, the veteran point guard remained in the locker room. The only production Denver received from its bench in Game 2 was from Justin Holiday, who shot 4-of-5 from three and finished with 13 points, two rebounds, and one assist. With Jackson and Murray dealing with calf issues, the Nuggets have two point guards not playing at full strength. Game 3 being on Friday could help matters, but the biggest problem has been the talented Timberwolves. Rotoworld Monday, 10:13 pm
       
    • Helped to locker room
      Jackson exited Monday's Game 2 against the Timberwolves with an apparent left ankle injury, Vincent Goodwill of Yahoo Sports reports.

      Advice: Jackson exited the contest with eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, and considering the deficit Denver faced when he left, it seems unlikely that he'll return. He'll be considered day-to-day until the team provides additional details on his status. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:13 pm
