    Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) has been ruled out against the Nets on Tuesday.
    Kuzma will be sidelined, which will open up a spot in the starting unit. Taurean Prince and Cormac Ryan should take on larger roles, with one of them sliding into the starting lineup.

    Alperen Sengun had 33 points (15-of-27 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), 16 rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and one three-pointer in Friday’s Game 3 loss to the Lakers.
    By almost any measure, Sengun had a great game in Game 3. He had 33 points, 16 rebounds and six assists. He added three steals and a block on the defensive end. He finished +10 in 47 minutes played including overtime. Still, without Kevin Durant (ankle), the Rockets collapsed down the stretch of regulation and the Lakers took total control of the series with the overtime win. Sengun and the Rockets will be playing to avoid elimination in Game 4 on Sunday.

  • LAL Guard #36
    Marcus Smart had 21 points (5-of-9 FGs, 9-of-11 FTs), four rebounds, 10 assists, five steals, two blocks and two three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Rockets in Game 3.
    Smart had 25 points, seven assists and five steals in Game 2 and had a pretty similar stat line in Game 3. The 32-year-old point guard had 21 points, 10 assists and five steals as the Lakers improbably took a 3-0 series lead with the overtime win. Smart has become one of the Lakers’ most important players early in these playoffs with Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) sidelined.
  • LAL Forward #28
    Rui Hachimura had 22 points (8-of-14 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Friday’s Game 3 win over the Rockets.
    Hachimura set the tone right away in Game 3, dropping 16 points without missing from the field in the first quarter. The 28-year-old small forward finished with 22 points, which was second only to LeBron James on the Lakers. Hachimura had a great night while Luke Kennard, who averaged 25 points in the first two games of the series, had just 14 points.
  • LAL Forward #23
    LeBron James had 29 points (10-of-22 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), 13 rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and four three-pointers in the Lakers’ 112-108 victory over the Rockets in Game 3 on Friday.
    With the Lakers shorthanded to begin the playoffs, LeBron has been nothing short of excellent in the first three games. James is averaging 25.3 points, 9.7 rebounds and 8.7 assists in this series. With the Lakers trailing and less than 25 seconds remaining in regulation, the 41-year-old small forward got a steal and a game-tying three-pointer. Then the Lakers stole Game 3 in overtime. They’ll have a chance to complete a sweep in Game 4 on Sunday.
  • PHI Guard #0
    Tyrese Maxey had 31 points (12-of-31 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, six assists, one steal, two blocks and five three-pointers in Friday’s Game 3 loss to the Celtics.
    Maxey had 31 points, but he wasn’t efficient with 31 attempts from the field. The 25-year-old point guard only took two free throws all game. He made a three-pointer with less than nine minutes left in regulation to give the 76ers the lead, but only scored two points for the rest of the game. The 76ers will have to win Game 4 on Sunday to even the series after falling behind 2-1.
  • BOS Guard #11
    Payton Pritchard had 15 points (5-of-12 FGs), four rebounds, two assists and five three-pointers in Friday’s Game 3 win over the 76ers.
    All of Pritchard’s 15 points came on his five three-pointers. None were bigger than the one to beat the shot clock and put the Celtics up by five with less than a minute and a half remaining in regulation. Pritchard was +16 in 33 minutes on the night.
  • BOS Forward-Guard #0
    Jayson Tatum had 25 points (9-of-17 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), four rebounds, seven assists, one steal and five three-pointers in the Celtics’ 108-100 victory over the 76ers in Game 3 on Friday.
    Tatum iced the game for the Celtics with a pull-up three-pointer from the right wing with 25 second left in regulation. It was the 28-year-old small forward’s fifth three-pointer of the night. Tatum also had seven assists. The Celtics have at least guaranteed a split in Philadelphia, but could really take control of the series with a win in Game four on Sunday.
  • SAS Forward-Center #1
    Victor Wembanyama (concussion protocol) is out for Game 3 against the Trail Blazers on Friday.
    Wembanyama participated in shootaround on Friday and was listed as questionable, but ultimately ruled out for Game 3 against the Trail Blazers. It’s unclear how close he actually was to playing and if he might be available for Game 4 on Sunday. Luke Kornet has typically started when Wembanyama has missed time this season.
  • DEN Forward #32
    Aaron Gordon (calf) is questionable for Saturday’s Game 4 against the Timberwolves.
    Gordon had eight points in 37 minutes in Game 3, but missed Game 3 with a calf injury. Spencer Jones started, but had just six points in Game 3. If Gordon is out again, Jones would be a candidate for another spot start. Gordon remains questionable for Game 4 on Saturday.
  • OKC Guard #11
    Isaiah Joe (personal) is doubtful for Saturday’s Game 3 against the Suns.
    Joe had six points in 15 minutes off the bench in the Thunder’s Game 2 victory over the Suns on Wednesday. Listed as doubtful on the injury report for personal reasons for Saturday’s Game 3, Joe is unlikely to play. He’s not a significant loss for the Thunder.
