The Scoop: Walker will miss a fourth straight game due to a right ankle sprain. The next chance for the 21-year-old forward to get back on the floor during the NBA Finals will be Monday for Game 5 in Oklahoma City.

 The Scoop: Turner dealt with an illness during Game 3, which shed some doubt on whether he'd be able to play Friday in Game 4. However, the veteran big man will be available for Indiana, as the team looks to take a commanding 3-1 lead over Oklahoma City. Turner has played well in the NBA Finals up to this point, averaging 13.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.7 blocks per game while shooting 42.4 percent from the floor and 28.6 percent from beyond the arc.

 The Scoop: Finney-Smith heads into the NBA offseason with a player option on his contract with the Lakers worth $15.3 million. Even after undergoing ankle surgery, he'll likely remain a priority for the Lakers in free agency, whether he decides to opt into his contract or opt out in hopes of getting a long-term deal. After the Nets traded him in December of 2024, the veteran forward played 43 regular-season games for Los Angeles and averaged 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting 44.2 percent from the field and 39.8 percent from deep.

 The Scoop: Siakam was everywhere in Wednesday's win, helping the Pacers secure a 2-1 series lead. Not only was he aggressive on offense, but Siakam also guarded Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the clutch and came up with some big defensive stops. Through 19 postseason games, Siakam holds averages of 20.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals on 52.5 percent shooting from the field.

 The Scoop: Podziemski had surgery on his left wrist at the end of May and had another procedure to correct a core injury Tuesday. Despite the pair of surgeries, Podziemski is expected to make a full recovery before the start of training camp. The 22-year-old saw a slight uptick in production as a sophomore, logging 11.7 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game during the regular season.

 The Scoop: While Turner was feeling under the weather Wednesday, the illness didn't affect his workload, as he played 30 minutes for the first time since Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals. While Turner may be held out of Thursday's practice, per Collier, the issue doesn't seem to be of major concern at this point. Wednesday's contest marked Turner's ninth game with at least five blocks this season, and his second of the playoffs. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Turner's health ahead of Friday's Game 4.

 The Scoop: Brown finished the 2025 NBA Playoffs with a partially torn right meniscus, and he had to manage the issue for several weeks. Fortunately for Brown and the Celtics, by addressing the issue now, the star forward is expected to participate in training camp without any limitations. Brown could have a ton on his plate in 2025-26 due to Jayson Tatum's (Achilles) absence.

 The Scoop: Edey is expected to make a full recovery after re-spraining his ankle during an offseason workout. The big man is set to be re-evaluated before the start of the 2025-26 regular season, though it wouldn't be surprising if he missed additional time while recovering from the injury. The 23-year-old appeared in 66 regular-season outings (55 starts) during his rookie season, finishing with averages of 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 assists while shooting 58.0 percent from the field across 21.5 minutes per game.

 The Scoop: Walker will miss a third straight game during the NBA Finals as he continues to nurse a sprained right ankle. The Pacers will likely keep leaning on Obi Toppin to help shoulder the load. The next chance for Walker to get back on the floor will be Friday for Game 4.

 The Scoop: Siakam, who was named the MVP of the Eastern Conference Finals, has been relatively quiet against the Thunder so far. Through two games, he's averaging 17.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.5 blocks, shooting a combined 10-for-26 from the field. With the series tied at one win apiece, Game 3 is set for Wednesday in Indiana.
