Isaiah Jackson

LAC Forward #23

Isaiah Jackson (ankle) has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday’s game against the Warriors.

Jackson has been sidelined since March 27, but after practicing fully on Tuesday, he is now expected to make his return for the Clippers’ win-or-go-home matchup with the Warriors. He’ll likely occupy some of the backup center minutes behind Brook Lopez.
LaMelo Ball

CHA Guard #1

NBA insider Chris B. Haynes reports that the NBA will review LaMelo Ball for potentially taking out the ankle of Bam Adebayo in Tuesday’s Play-In game.

Ball went down in the second quarter and appeared to make contact with Adebayo’s ankle. Adebayo took a hard fall that sent him to the locker room and caused him to miss the rest of the game. The NBA will review the footage to determine if Ball’s contact was intentional, and Haynes reports that a ruling is expected before Friday’s Play-In game.
Dylan Harper

SAS Guard #2

ESPN’s Michael C. Wright reports that Mitch Johnson expects Dylan Harper (thumb) to play in Sunday’s Game 1 against the Trail Blazers.

Harper jammed his left thumb in Sunday’s regular-season finale against Denver, but he’s expected to be ready for the opening round of the playoffs when the Spurs take on the Trail Blazers at Frost Bank Center. Harper should handle his usual workload.
Dillon Brooks

PHX Guard-Forward #3

Dillon Brooks logged 20 points (6-of-10 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, four steals and two three-pointers in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers.

Brooks had a positive impact in his 37 minutes on Tuesday before fouling out late in the fourth quarter. While on the floor, he was a pest defensively, as shown in his four steals, but also repeatedly made momentum-building shots while the Suns led. Despite taking only 10 shots on the evening, the veteran forward finished as one of three Suns players to tally at least 20 points. Phoenix will hope Brooks can be productive again on Friday against the winner of Wednesday’s Warriors-Clippers matchup.
Jalen Green

PHX Guard #4

Jalen Green amassed 35 points (14-of-29 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two three-pointers in the loss to the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.

Green was Phoenix’s best scorer on a night that he logged a team-high 39 minutes. He was cold from the three-point line but made up for his inefficiency from beyond the arc by dazzling in the paint and finding production in the midrange. Green, however, did commit five turnovers in the process. Still, his positives outweighed the negatives on this night, and he’ll have another opportunity to help Phoenix get into the playoffs on Friday when it faces the winner of Wednesday’s Clippers-Warriors game.
Devin Booker

PHX Guard #1

Devin Booker totaled 22 points (7-of-17 FGs, 8-of-13 FTs), one rebound, four assists and one steal in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers.

Booker had an off night on Tuesday, as he saw his streak of 30-point performances end at three games. He struggled overall from the field, missed the mark on both of his three-point attempts, and missed five free throws along the way. The veteran scorer played 38 minutes, despite dealing with foul trouble, but failed to make his usual impact. Still, he’ll have an opportunity to bounce back on Friday when the Suns take on the winner of Wednesday’s Clippers-Warriors matchup.
Jerami Grant

POR Forward #9

Jerami Grant tallied 16 points (5-of-12 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, one block and four three-pointers in Tuesday’s win over the Suns.

Grant took the floor for the first time since late March and provided some huge moments on both ends of the floor during the fourth quarter. The veteran forward hit two massive three-pointers with under three minutes remaining, made a big defensive stop on Jordan Goodwin’s game-tying putback attempt with seconds left, and then provided a punctuation-mark dunk on the other end to punch Portland’s ticket to the playoffs. Grant was one of two Trail Blazers to make four three-pointers on the evening. He’ll likely play an important role in the first-round series against the Spurs.
Jrue Holiday

POR Guard #5

Jrue Holiday amassed 21 points (7-of-18 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and four three-pointers in the win over the Suns on Tuesday.

Holiday logged 38 minutes in the win and provided much-needed scoring for the Blazers. The two-time NBA champion drained four three-pointers, including a big one down the stretch of the fourth quarter, to help keep Portland within striking distance. He didn’t compile many other counting stats, yet his veteran presence in clutch time helped Portland come from behind and secure a playoff spot. The Trail Blazers will face San Antonio in the opening round.
Deni Avdija

POR Forward #8

Deni Avdija tallied 41 points (15-of-22 FGs, 8-of-13 FGs), seven rebounds, 12 assists, two blocks and three three-pointers in the win over the Suns on Tuesday.

Avdija was everything the Blazers needed down the stretch to mount a come-from-behind win. The first-time All-Star repeatedly got to the rim throughout the fourth quarter and ultimately scored the go-ahead layup with 16.1 seconds remaining. He finished with game-highs in points and assists while leading the Blazers from 11 points down midway through the final frame to mount a comeback that would secure them the seventh seed in the playoffs. Portland will face San Antonio in the opening round.
Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Tyler Herro tallied 23 points (7-of-18 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), three rebounds, six assists and three three-pointers in the loss to the Hornets on Tuesday.

Herro struggled with his shot on Tuesday during his 34 minutes on the floor. Specifically, his inability to finish efficiently inside the three-point line led to the low field-goal percentage. Yet, he sank three triples and produced at the free-throw line to end as one of Miami’s three players with at least 20 points on the night. Herro also turned out a solid outing as a facilitator in the team’s season-ending loss. He battled injuries throughout the season and only logged 33 regular-season games, leaving him with little fantasy basketball value in his seventh NBA season.
