  • Goes for 33 points in Game 2 win
    Gilgeous-Alexander had 33 points (13-19 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 124-92 victory over the Pelicans in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

    Advice: The Thunder secured a statement win in Game 2 of the series, and Gilgeous-Alexander was absolutely dominant en route to his first 30-point effort since April 9, when he exploded for 40 points in a win over the Kings. Gilgeous-Alexander should lead the Thunder in Game 3 on Saturday, and he's having an excellent series so far, shooting 55.8 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from deep in the first two games against New Orleans.

  • Drains four threes Wednesday
    Dort racked up 15 points (4-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 124-92 win over the Pelicans in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

    Advice: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren carried the Thunder to a blowout win in Game 2 of the series, but Dort made his presence felt Wednesday and was an absolute menace from beyond the arc. Dort should remain a capable contributor as the series heads to New Orleans for Game 3 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Today, 6:05 am
  • Fills stat sheet in Game 2 loss
    Ingram produced 18 points (5-10 FG, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 124-92 loss to the Thunder in Game 2 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.

    Advice: Ingram wasn't as dominant as he looked in the Play-In victory over the Kings, but he posted a better stat line than he did in the series opener while also embracing a higher usage rate since Zion Williamson (hamstring) was sidelined. Ingram has surpassed the 15-point mark in just two of his five appearances since returning to action in the regular-season finale, and the Pelicans need him to be at his best for Game 3 against Oklahoma City on Saturday.

  • Surpasses 30 points in Game 2 loss
    Brown finished with 33 points (13-23 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 37 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 loss to Miami in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

    Advice: Brown led all players in Wednesday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-high mark from three and hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total in a well-rounded performance in a losing effort. Brown bounced back well after posting a modest 17 points in Sunday's Game 1 win. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:55 pm
  • Boosts offense in loss
    White tallied 13 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, one rebound, one block and one steal over 36 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 loss to Miami in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

    Advice: White provided a boost on the offensive end of the court for Boston in a losing effort, handing out a team-high-tying quartet of assists to go along with a pair of threes and concluding as one of three Celtics in double figures in scoring. White has pitched in nicely behind Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum in the first round, recording at least 13 points and four rebounds in both outings against Miami. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:54 pm
  • Leads offensively in double-double
    Herro posted 24 points (7-13 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 14 assists, five rebounds and one steal over 38 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 win over Boston in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

    Advice: Herro stepped up big for Miami in a bounce-back win in Game 2, leading all players in the contest in threes made and assists while leading all Heat players in scoring in an impressive outing. Herro set a season high in assists for any Miami player this year, and he tied the second-most dimes by a Heat player in a playoff game in team history. Miami will need Herro to continue to step up offensively, especially with Jimmy Butler (knee) inactive. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:45 pm
  • Strong from deep in 21-point outing
    Martin ended with 21 points (7-12 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one steal over 36 minutes in Wednesday's 111-101 win over Boston in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first round.

    Advice: Martin had a breakout performance in Wednesday's bounce-back victory, earning his second straight start to begin the series against the Celtics. Martin connected on a handful of threes while ending as one of three Heat players with 20 or more points, a mark he surpassed on four occasions during the regular season. Martin responded well after scoring four points in Game 1, and Miami will look for him to continue to help boost the offense in Game 3 and beyond. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:44 pm
  • 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 Yesterday, 5:39 pm

  • 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 Yesterday, 1:43 pm
