  • Suffers detached retina
    Bitim will miss the remainder of the postseason after suffering a detached retina in his right eye.

    Advice: Bitim did not play in Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Knicks, but he earned his first start of the season two days prior, posting six points in 25 minutes of action. The Turkish native was not carrying an injury designation prior to Tuesday's announcement, so it's unclear exactly how he suffered the injury. The 25-year-old finishes his abridged campaign averaging 3.5 points and 1.4 rebounds while shooting 38.1 percent from the field in 11.7 minutes per game across 23 appearances.

  • Doesn't practice Tuesday
    Rozier (neck) didn't practice Tuesday, Zachary Weinberger of Clutch Points reports.

    Advice: Rozier missed the final four games of the regular season due to neck spasms and still isn't practicing ahead of Wednesday's Play-In Game against the 76ers. Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported Monday that Rozier was getting more tests done on his neck, but the Heat have been cautiously optimistic about the shooting guard's availability. Duncan Robinson (back) and Kevin Love (arm) were both limited during Tuesday's practice. Rotowire.com 49 minutes ago
  • Limited at practice
    Robinson (back) was limited at Tuesday's practice, Zachary Weinberger of Clutch Points reports.

    Advice: Robinson missed the final three games of the regular season, but his limited participation suggests he's now considered day-to-day. Miami will release its official injury report Tuesday evening, so that's when fantasy managers can expect more clarity on his status for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

  • Dealing with ankle trouble
    Reddish is questionable for Tuesday's Play-In Game against New Orleans due to a right ankle sprain, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

    Advice: Reddish did not suit up for the final two games of the regular season, missing a contest due to personal matters and being a healthy scratch for the finale. He's now dealing with pain in the same ankle that has sidelined him for multiple stretches this season, although he has been a minimal factor in the Lakers' rotation of late. Nonetheless, if he's unavailable to play Tuesday, the defensive burden on the wings will fall entirely on the shoulders of Taurean Prince, Rui Hachimura and LeBron James (ankle).

  • Misses another practice Tuesday
    Melton (back) missed the duration of Tuesday's practice, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

    Advice: Melton also missed Monday's practice, putting his status for Wednesday's game versus Miami in real jeopardy. There should be more clarity on Melton's status when the 76ers release their injury report Tuesday evening. Rotowire.com Today, 9:41 am
  • Removed from injury report
    Curry (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against Sacramento.

    Advice: Curry and Draymond Green (knee) have both been cleared for action Tuesday, leaving Gary Payton (calf) as the Warriors' lone absence. Golden State will be traveling to Sacramento for Tuesday's showdown, returning to the scene of the crime where Curry dropped 50 points (20-38 FG, 7-18 3Pt) in a victorious Game 7 of last year's first-round series between these teams. Additionally, Curry averaged 31.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists in four games against the Kings this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:50 pm
  • Gary Payton II (calf) out Tuesday vs. Kings
    Gary Payton II (left calf strain) has been ruled out for the Warriors’ Tuesday play-in matchup against the Kings.

    Advice: GP2 missed the Dubs’ last three regular-season games and is now set to miss their play-in game against Sacramento. Chris Paul and Brandon Podziemski have a chance to play larger roles during his absence. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:47 pm
  • Expected to play Tuesday
    Coach Steve Kerr said Monday that Curry (ankle) is expected to play in Tuesday's Play-In Tournament matchup against the Kings, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Advice: Curry sat out Sunday's regular-season finale due to what was deemed a right ankle sprain, but it seemed as though his absence was mainly for rest purposes ahead of the postseason. The 36-year-old will presumably be back in action once the Play-In Tournament gets underway, and he's averaged 26.0 points, 7.0 assists and 6.0 rebounds in 33.3 minutes per game over his last three appearances.

  • Out for Play-In Tournament
    Payton (calf) has been ruled out for the Play-In Tournament, which starts Tuesday in Sacramento, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

    Advice: If the Warriors beat the Kings on Tuesday, they'd play the loser of a Pelicans-Lakers matchup, but Payton won't be able to play in that game if Golden State advances. The defensive-minded guard missed the final three regular-season contests due to a left calf strain, and his missing bench minutes will likely be absorbed by Brandin Podziemski, Chris Paul and maybe Moses Moody.
