  • 13-8-0 1st Place
  • 29,389.40 Total Points (2nd)
    • Scores 21 points in Game 4 victory
      Irving accumulated 21 points (10-18 FG, 1-6 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists over 31 minutes during Friday's 122-84 win over the Celtics in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

      Advice: Luka Doncic was the best player for the Mavericks in this Game 4 victory, but Irving posted a strong line as well. The veteran floor general reached the 20-point plateau for the second consecutive contest, and he'll need to be at his best if the Mavericks want to pull off the upset in Game 5 of the series Monday. Irving is averaging 21.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in the series. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:14 pm
       
    • Scores 29 despite shooting woes
      Doncic accumulated 29 points (12-26 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 122-84 win over Boston in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

      Advice: Doncic had another rough showing from a shooting perspective, needing 26 shots to score 29 points and missing all eight of his three-point attempts, but he still led Dallas in scoring as the Mavericks kept themselves alive for at least one more game. Doncic has surpassed the 25-point mark in 11 consecutive games during the current playoff run and is expected to play a prominent role for the Mavericks in Game 5 of the series Monday, as he'll probably have to lead the team again if the Mavericks are to pull off an upset at TD Garden.

    • Kyrie Irving tallies 21 points in Game 4 blowout
      Kyrie Irving played 31 minutes in Friday’s 122-84 win over Boston, amassing 21 points (10-of-18 FGs), four rebounds, six assists, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: Game 4 was the first time in this series that Irving has shot 50% or better from the field and made nine of his 12 2-point attempts. Outside of Game 3, when he shot 4-of-6, the 3-point accuracy has not been there for Kyrie. In Games 1, 2, and 4, he was a combined 1-of-14, well below his mark for the postseason (40.5%). Irving struggled mightily in the first two games of the NBA Finals, played in Boston. He’ll look to put forth a better effort when the series returns to Beantown for Game 5 on Monday.

    • Luka Doncic scores 29 despite off night from three
      Luka Doncic shot 12-of-26 from the field and 5-of-7 from the foul line in Friday’s 122-84 win over the Celtics, accounting for 29 points, five rebounds, five assists, and three steals in 33 minutes.

      Advice: After receiving significant criticism for his play in the aftermath of Dallas’ Game 3 loss on Wednesday, Doncic was better in Game 4. He scored 25 points in the first half, becoming the third-youngest player to score at least 25 or more in the first half of an NBA Finals game. The only two players ahead of Luka on that list are Kyrie Irving (2017) and Hakeem Olajuwon (1986). Doncic missed all eight of his 3-point attempts, but he was nearly unstoppable inside the arc and only committed one turnover. Game 5 is on Monday night in Boston.

    • Luka Doncic (chest) available for Game 4 Friday
      Luka Doncic (thoracic contusion) is available for Friday’s game against the Celtics.

      Advice: Doncic was initially probable for Game 4, so the status upgrade was expected. The Mavericks star was limited to 38 minutes in Wednesday’s Game 3 defeat due to foul trouble, as he was disqualified with a little under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. With Dallas’ season on the line, look for Doncic to be at his best. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:01 pm
       
    • Set to play Friday
      Doncic (thoracic contusion) is available for Friday's Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Celtics.

      Advice: Doncic has been upgraded from probable to available Friday despite dealing with a thoracic contusion. The superstar guard is averaging 29.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 2.3 steals in 39.3 minutes across the first three games of the NBA Finals. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:55 pm
       
    • CLE unlikely to entertain ‘core four’ trade offers
      According to Yahoo Sports’ Jake Fischer, the Cavaliers are not expected to entertain any trade offers for their “core four” players.

      Advice: While the team is still searching for a new head coach, there have also been questions regarding constructing the Cavaliers’ roster for next season. There has reportedly been interest in Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen, but according to Fischer, the team has no plans to move anyone. That “core four” includes Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley, with the latter flourishing while Allen was sidelined during the postseason with a rib injury. The fantasy ceilings of Garland, Allen, and Mobley were limited this season, and that likely remains the case in 2024-25 if Cleveland sticks with the same starting lineup.

    • Probable for Game 4
      Doncic (thoracic contusion) is probable for Friday's Game 4 matchup with the Celtics.

      Advice: Doncic is a bit banged up at the moment, but there's almost no way that he'll be sitting out a potential elimination game in the Finals. Expect to get official confirmation on his status closer to Friday's tip. Rotowire.com Thursday, 4:07 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (chest) probable for Game 4 Friday
      Luka Doncic (thoracic contusion) is probable for Friday’s game against the Celtics.

      Advice: Doncic is back on the injury report due to his thoracic contusion suffered during Game 2. However, he played 38 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday’s Game 3 defeat. Look for him to hit (or exceed) 40 minutes, provided he does not foul out. Rotoworld Thursday, 3:56 pm
