  • Cam Reddish (ankle) out Thursday vs. Nuggets
    Cam Reddish (right ankle sprain) has been ruled out for Thursday’s Lakers-Heat matchup.

    Advice: Reddish is still battling back from an ankle sprain and is set to miss a sixth consecutive game. Taurean Prince will likely continue to dominate the Lakers’ reserve wing minutes. Rotoworld 26 minutes ago
  • Sidelined for Game 3
    Reddish (ankle) won't play in Thursday's Game 3 against Denver, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Reddish will miss a sixth consecutive game -- stretching back to the regular season -- with a sprained right ankle. Taurean Prince should continue to benefit from Reddish's absence. His next chance to play will come Saturday for Game 4. Rotowire.com 43 minutes ago
  • Won't play Thursday
    Jerome (ankle) will remain on the sidelines for Game 3 versus the Magic on Thursday.

    Advice: Jerome is still recovering from ankle surgery and hasn't played since Oct. 27. Even if he's cleared to suit up during the postseason, he's unlikely to crack the rotation. Rotowire.com Today, 1:43 pm
  • Good to go for Game 3
    Suggs (knee) isn't listed on Orlando's injury report for Thursday's Game 3 against the Cavaliers.

    Advice: Suggs suffered a left knee sprain during Monday's Game 2 loss, but he returned in the second half and said he was fine following the contest. He was also able to practice Wednesday. The defensive-minded guard has totaled 22 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists, three steals and a block through the first two games of the opening-round series. Rotowire.com Today, 1:42 pm
  • Questionable for Thursday
    Melton (back) is questionable for Thursday's Game 3 matchup with New York.

    Advice: Melton has not yet made an appearance this postseason, but he was able to practice Wednesday, so he does appear to be close. However, he'll likely have his minutes closely monitored once he is eventually cleared to return. Rotowire.com Today, 1:36 pm
  • De’Anthony Melton (back) questionable for Game 3
    De’Anthony Melton (back injury recovery) is questionable to play in Game 3 against the Knicks on Thursday.

    Advice: Melton has only been available to play in a handful of games since January, but there is a chance that he is back in the lineup for Game 3. He will likely play a limited role off the bench, but his shooting and defense could be an x-factor in this series, especially with the 76ers currently down 0-2. Rotoworld Today, 1:36 pm
  • Goes through practice
    Suggs (knee) was able to practice Wednesday, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

    Advice: Coach Jamahl Mosley said that Suggs is feeling better, and previous reports have indicated that the guard is expected to play in Game 3 Thursday against the Cavaliers. Fantasy managers can expect more clarity when Orlando releases their official injury report Wednesday evening. Rotowire.com Today, 9:34 am
  • On track for training camp
    Nets general manager Sean Marks said Wednesday that "all signs point to" Simmons (back) being available to start next season's training camp, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

    Advice: Simmons underwent a successful microscopic partial discectomy in mid-March to alleviate the nerve impingement in his lower back, marking yet another injury-related setback for the 2017 No. 1 overall pick. The 27-year-old has played in only 57 games across the last three seasons, but when available, he has shown he can still be an active defender and excellent playmaker. Simmons has one more year remaining on his current contract, a five-year extension he signed with Philadelphia in 2019. Rotowire.com Today, 9:26 am
  • Practices Wednesday
    Coach Nick Nurse said Melton (back) practiced Wednesday and is on track to suit up for Thursday's Game 3 against the Knicks, but the shooting guard will likely still be listed as questionable on the official injury report, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.

    Advice: Melton has appeared in only five games since Jan. 12 and last suited up April 12, so even if he gets the green light, he'll presumably be eased into action. The sixth-year wing made only 38 regular-season appearances and averaged 11.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.6 steals in 26.9 minutes per game. Rotowire.com Today, 9:18 am
