Out at least two games
Walker (ankle) will miss the first two games of the NBA Finals, Dustin Dopirak of the Indianapolis Star reports.


 The Scoop: During his weekly radio interview with James Boyd and Kevin Bowen on 107.5 FM The Fan, Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Walker will be out "a while." The NBA Finals are very spread out, however, which gives Walker more time for treatment and healing. He's averaged 9.8 minutes in the postseason, appearing in 12 out of 16 games. With Walker sidelined, a handful of those minutes could go to Obi Toppin.

Limited playing time in 2024-25
Tucker finished the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 3.0 points and 2.7 rebounds across 19.3 minutes per game in three regular-season outings (one start).


 The Scoop: Tucker signed two 10-day contracts with New York in March before landing a one-year deal with the club in April. The veteran forward made only one postseason appearance, and the Knicks hold a team option on his contract for next season. Should the 40-year-old choose to continue playing, he'll likely serve as sparsely deployed veteran depth considering his age.

Sees floor in Game 6 loss
Dadiet finished with no counting stats across two minutes during Saturday's 125-108 loss to Indiana in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals.


 The Scoop: Dadiet made his second appearance of the playoffs during garbage time Saturday. The rookie first-rounder appeared in 18 regular-season outings with New York in the 2024-25 campaign, finishing with averages of 1.7 points and 1.0 rebounds across 6.2 minutes per contest. The 19-year-old also made 23 appearances with the club's G League affiliate, the Westchester Knicks, where he averaged 13.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 31.8 minutes per game.

Spotted on crutches post-game
Walker (ankle) was spotted on crutches after the Pacers defeated the Knicks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Saturday by a 125-108 score, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.


 The Scoop: Walker was taken off the court in the fourth quarter and didn't return to the game, finishing the contest with two points and a rebound across seven minutes. He'll have a few days to recover before Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals against the Thunder on Thursday, but even if he's available, he shouldn't have a major impact from a fantasy perspective. Walker has logged more than 20 minutes off the bench just once during the team's current playoff run.

Questionable to return Saturday
Walker was taken to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Knicks due to an apparent ankle injury and is questionable to return, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.


 The Scoop: Walker was taken off the court, helped by James Johnson and a trainer, after Karl-Anthony Towns scored on him. Walker doesn't typically have a big role, though, so his potential absence shouldn't affect many fantasy outcomes. Prior to exiting the court, he recorded two points and a rebound across seven minutes.

Receives playoff minutes
Dillingham closed with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over seven minutes during Wednesday's 124-94 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.


 The Scoop: Dillingham made just his third playoff appearance for Minnesota, all of which came in blowouts. The rookie guard struggled to receive consistent playing time this year, averaging 4.5 points, 2.0 assists and 1.0 rebounds in 10.5 minutes across 49 regular-season appearances. However, Dillingham will likely continue to grow into a bigger role as Mike Conley ages.

Sees minutes in blowout loss
Clark supplied two points (1-1 FG), one rebound and one steal in seven minutes during Wednesday's 124-94 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.


 The Scoop: Clark appeared in five playoff games for the Timberwolves this season, all of which were decided by more than 20 points. The rookie guard saw inconsistent playing time for Minnesota in 2024-25, averaging 4.1 points and 1.3 rebounds in 13.1 minutes across 40 regular-season appearances.

Provides spark off bench
Shannon finished with 11 points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 124-94 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.


 The Scoop: Despite not being much of a factor in Minnesota's rotation all year, Shannon averaged 11.7 points in 12.3 minutes across the final three games of the team's series against Oklahoma City. Shannon will look to build off this success to gain a more significant role during his sophomore campaign, especially if Nickeil Alexander-Walker leaves in free agency.

Solid outing in season-ending loss
Reid registered 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, three blocks and one steal over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 124-94 loss to the Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.


 The Scoop: Reid continued to display impressive efficiency against the Thunder as he recorded his fourth straight outing with double-digit points during Wednesday's season-ending loss. However, the 25-year-old big man struggled with ball security, coughing up five turnovers. While Reid is one of the NBA's most productive bench bigs, he could opt out of his $15.02 million player option for the 2025-26 season in order to receive a bigger role on a new team if Julius Randle remains in Minnesota.

Efficient in season-ending loss
Randle finished Wednesday's 124-94 loss to the Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals with 24 points (8-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 31 minutes.


 The Scoop: Randle led the Timberwolves in scoring during the team's blowout loss, which put an end to their playoff run. However, the 30-year-old forward had an up-and-down series against Oklahoma City, as he failed to score double-digit points in two of the five games. Randle averaged 18.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists in 32.3 minutes across 69 regular-season appearances in his first year in Minnesota. He now has a $30.94 million player option for the 2025-26 season.
