Significant role yields little offense
Batum provided four points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday's 125-114 victory over the Knicks in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.


 The Scoop: Batum continues to do very little on offense despite playing meaningful minutes, highlighting the 76ers' lack of depth. Although he did manage three combined steals and blocks, the team would likely love for him to have scored more than four points. Given the 76ers have very few options when it comes to somewhat reliable producers, Batum should continue to play a significant role moving forward.

Goes missing in Game 3 loss
Bogdanovic finished with five points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 13 minutes during Thursday's 125-114 loss to the 76ers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.


 The Scoop: Bogdanovic was a non-factor in the loss, playing only 13 minutes. At this point, his playing time is completely reliant on whether his shot is falling, something it was not doing Thursday. New York will look to bounce back Sunday when the two teams face off once again.

Available to play
James (ankle) is available to play in Thursday's Game 3 versus the Nuggets, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.


 The Scoop: As is usually the case, James was carrying a probable tag prior to this update due to lingering left ankle soreness. James is not expected to have any restrictions as the Lakers attempt to pick up their first win of the series.

Unlikely to play Friday
Livingston is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Pacers due to a non-COVID illness.


 The Scoop: Livingston has only logged four total minutes through the first two games of Milwaukee's first-round series against Indiana, so his expected absence shouldn't affect the team's rotation.

Gets in work Thursday
Coach Joe Mazzulla said Thursday that Kornet (calf) is feeling good and more will be known about his injury Friday depending on how he responds to work being done on the court, Jay King of The Athletic reports.


 The Scoop: Kornet has already missed the first two games of Boston's first-round series against Miami with a calf injury. While Kornet could return to action if the series is drawn out, the Celtics appear to be using Al Horford as their sole bench big.

Won't play Friday
Prosper is out for Friday's Game 3 against the Clippers due to an ankle sprain he suffered in Thursday's practice, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.


 The Scoop: Prosper's absence shouldn't significantly affect Dallas' playoff rotation. The rookie forward's next chance to suit up is Game 4 on Sunday.

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 first round.


 The Scoop: 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 a menace from beyond the arc. Dort should remain a capable contributor as the series heads to New Orleans for Game 3 on Saturday.

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.


 The Scoop: 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.

Another probable tag
James (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's Game 2 against Denver, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.


 The Scoop: James has been listed as probable for each of the first two games of the series but has averaged 39.5 minutes per contest. Considering he's looked to be 100 percent in both games and has been an injury report mainstay this season, fantasy managers should expect James to be available Thursday.

Missing first-round series
Wade (knee) is out indefinitely and won't play in the remainder of the Cavaliers' first-round playoff series against the Magic, the team announced Wednesday.


 The Scoop: Wade hasn't taken the floor since March 8 due to a right knee sprain and will be sidelined for the remainder of the series against Orlando. In the announcement, the Cavaliers said that a recent MRI revealed that Wade would need more time for recovery and is out indefinitely. Georges Niang and Isaac Okoro should continue to see plenty of action off the bench at the forward spots.
