Miami Heat forward/center
Kevin Love (personal) remains away from the team and will not be an option for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 2016 NBA champion has appeared in only seven games in 2025, and it's unknown when he will be back in the fold for Miami.
Bam Adebayo, who led the Heat with 24 points in Sunday's Game 1 loss, and
Kel'el Ware will continue to be the team's primary frontcourt options on Wednesday, with
Haywood Highsmith providing cover off the bench.

Miami Heat point guard
Terry Rozier (ankle) was hurt during an optional workout on Monday. Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald reports that Rozier sprained his left ankle and will be listed as questionable on the injury report for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This marks a fresh setback for Rozier, who has looked like a shadow of his former self in 2024-25 and fell out of the rotation at the end of the regular season. He also didn't take the floor against Cleveland in Sunday's Game 1.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard
Damian Lillard (calf) has been listed as questionable on the injury report for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers. On Saturday, ESPN's Shams Charania reported that Lillard was on track to rejoin the lineup for either Game 2 or Game 3 in the series, and it seems like his comeback might occur in Tuesday's game. On Monday, Lillard practiced fully, with Bucks head coach Doc Rivers saying, "He looks great to me." The Bucks were hammered 117-98 in Game 1 in Indianapolis and need Lillard back as soon as possible.
Ryan Rollins will lose his starting spot once Lillard returns, while
Kevin Porter Jr.'s playing time is also under threat.

Detroit Pistons forward/center
Isaiah Stewart (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 2 against the New York Knicks. This isn't a surprise, as Stewart missed time at the end of the regular season due to inflammation in his right knee and sat out the end of Game 1. He was listed as questionable on the initial injury report. With Stewart absent,
Paul Reed will move up the depth chart, but Detroit may also opt to deploy smaller lineups more in Monday's game.

Detroit Pistons forward/center
Isaiah Stewart (knee) has been listed as questionable for Game 2 of the team's first-round series against the New York Knicks on Monday night. Stewart has been dealing with inflammation in his right knee since the end of the regular season and made an early exit in Game 1, leaving with over nine minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. The 23-year-old big man had two points in the contest with five rebounds and two blocks.
Paul Reed is likely to enter the rotation on Monday if Stewart can't play, although he probably won't see much time on the court behind starting center
Jalen Duren, who will aim to bounce back in Game 2 after being held to seven points and six rebounds in Saturday's loss.

Denver Nuggets forward/center
Aaron Gordon (calf) has been listed as probable for Monday's Game 2 against the Los Angeles Clippers. Gordon is back on the injury report with a right calf strain, but he is likely to play. The veteran was one of the stars of the show in the series opener on Saturday, posting 25 points, eight rebounds, and two steals in 46 minutes. The Clippers must improve their defensive effort against him on Monday night, though they aren't the only team that has struggled to contain him, as Gordon is averaging over 20 points per game this month.

Boston Celtics forward
Jaylen Brown (knee) doesn't believe he'll face a minutes restriction in Sunday's playoff battle with the Orlando Magic. He suffered from posterior impingement in his right knee, forcing him to miss nine of the Celtics final 20 games of the regular season. Fortunately, head coach Joe Mazzulla reported Brown has looked good. Despite struggling from the three-point line, the 28-year-old has played well against Orlando during the 2024-25 campaign (two games), averaging 27.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 3.0 steals. While the injury is still somewhat concerning for fantasy managers, Brown is worth including in any DFS lineup on Sunday.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard
Ja Morant (ankle) will play in Friday's elimination game against the Dallas Mavericks. Morant is dealing with a "severe" ankle sprain and received an injection in his ankle on Thursday. He was originally listed as questionable for Friday's game before the team upgraded his status to available. Morant's presence in the lineup is a major boost for Memphis, but it remains to be seen how effectively he can play through his ankle injury.

Dallas Mavericks point guard
Brandon Williams (oblique) has been upgraded to available for Friday's play-in showdown against the Memphis Grizzlies. Williams was initially listed as probable for the game. The 25-year-old has added a spark to the Mavericks late in the season and was one of the standout performers in Wednesday's win over the Sacramento Kings, finishing with 17 points and five assists in 18 minutes off the bench. A similar effort from Williams on Friday night would boost Dallas' chances of victory in a tough road game.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center
Anthony Davis (adductor) has been cleared to play in Friday's play-in matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Mavericks have upgraded his status from probable to available after head coach Jason Kidd labeled the star big man a game-time decision. Following his adductor injury, Davis has steadily improved his form and opened the Play-In Tournament with a 27-point, nine-rebound effort against the Sacramento Kings.

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward
Gary Trent Jr. (knee) will be active on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. He has not been listed on the injury report after a knee injury sidelined him for Milwaukee's regular-season finale. The veteran has improved his performances throughout the campaign and is averaging 12.6 points in 26.5 minutes since the All-Star break. Against the Pacers, Trent Jr. has done a lot of damage from downtown this season, nailing 59.3 percent of his triples to average 13.5 points in the matchup.

Milwaukee Bucks forward
Taurean Prince (knee) will be welcomed back into the lineup for Saturday's playoff opener against the Indiana Pacers. The veteran was unavailable for the regular-season finale due to a knee issue. Prince has quietly played an important role for the Bucks this season, starting 73 of 80 games and contributing in multiple areas. He averaged 8.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.0 steals during the regular season.

Detroit Pistons center
Isaiah Stewart (knee) is set to return after a two-game absence on Saturday against the New York Knicks. The big man has recently experienced inflammation in his right knee and did not play in the team's last two regular-season games. Stewart and starting center
Jalen Duren will face a tough challenge in the first-round series against
Karl-Anthony Towns. In four regular-season matchups with the Knicks, Stewart managed only 3.8 points and 3.0 rebounds per game in 22.5 minutes.

April 18, 2025
Detroit Pistons forward
Ausar Thompson (knee) is off the injury report and good to go for Saturday's matchup against the New York Knicks. The versatile youngster exited the lineup for the team's regular-season finale due to left knee patellar tendinopathy, but he will be ready to make his postseason debut in Saturday's game. Thompson has improved each month in 2024-25, finishing the regular season by averaging 12.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.7 steals in April.

April 18, 2025
Los Angeles Lakers forward
Rui Hachimura (knee) is expected to be in the lineup for Saturday's Game 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, as the team has not listed him on the injury report. Hachimura has spent a large chunk of the campaign on the injury report, but he appears to be fully healthy for the most important part of the season. He has missed three of the last six games, including the regular-season finale last Sunday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Although health issues have significantly disrupted Hachimura's season, he has performed well when in the lineup, averaging 13.1 points and 5.0 rebounds per game in 31.7 minutes.
