  • Donte DiVincenzo hits seven triples, scores 35 PTS
    Donte DiVincenzo shot 12-of-26 from the field and 4-of-4 from the foul line in Friday’s Game 3 loss to the Pacers, tallying 35 points, three rebounds, two assists, one steal, one block, and seven 3-pointers in 44 minutes.

    Advice: With OG Anunoby (hamstring) sidelined, the Knicks looked to DiVincenzo even more than usual in Game 3. And he answered the call, knocking down seven 3-pointers and scoring 35 points with a full stat line. The Pacers will pay even more attention to DiVincenzo in Sunday’s Game 4, but that isn’t going to make him “gun shy.” Look for the Big Ragu, who has scored at least 25 points in all three games of this series, to put up a lot of shots as the Knicks attempt to steal one on the road.

  • Back to bench
    Anderson will return to a reserve role in Friday's Game 3 against the Nuggets.

    Advice: No surprise here, as Rudy Gobert (personal) is back with the team. As a result, Anderson should take on his usual role providing depth at forward. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:03 pm
     
  • Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) available Friday
    Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (left ankle sprain) is available for Friday’s Game 3 against the Timberwolves.

    Advice: Caldwell-Pope struggled in the first two games, both Denver losses, as he has not been at full strength health-wise. In addition to needing to knock down open shots, the Nuggets are asking KCP to take on the difficult task of defending Anthony Edwards. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:48 pm
     
  • Good to go Friday
    Caldwell-Pope (abdomen) is good to go for Friday's Game 3 against Minnesota.

    Advice: Caldwell-Pope walked away from Game 2 with a mild abdomen injury, but he'll power through it in Game 3 with no word of any restrictions. Jamal Murray (calf) and Reggie Jackson (calf) will also play through their questionable tags. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:38 pm
     
  • Woj: OG Anunoby could also miss Game 4 Sunday
    According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) is not expected to be available for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Pacers.

    Advice: Anunoby injured his hamstring during the third quarter of Wednesday’s Game 2 victory. While it has been reported that he will also miss the second of New York’s two games in Indianapolis, there’s a possibility that OG will be sidelined beyond that. Precious Achiuwa started Friday’s Game 3, and Anunoby’s absence also frees up additional minutes for Miles McBride. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:24 pm
     
  • Out for Game 3, but with team
    Anunoby (hamstring) remains out for Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, but he traveled with the Knicks to Indiana, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Advice: Anunoby will miss the game due to left hamstring soreness, but his presence with the team suggests the Knicks aren't preparing for him to miss extended time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:43 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
     
  • 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
     
  • Scores 20 points in Game 2 defeat
    Williams closed with 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 39 minutes during Thursday's 119-110 loss to the Mavericks in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

    Advice: Williams was the Thunder's second-best scoring option behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but his solid two-way contributions were not enough to lift Oklahoma City to a 2-0 series lead. Williams has been outstanding in the playoffs and has confirmed the improvements he evidenced during the regular season. Through six postseason appearances, he's averaging 20.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game while shooting 49 percent from the field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:28 am
