Andrew Wiggins (ankle) available Sunday
As expected, Andrew Wiggins (ankle) will be available Sunday for Game 3 against the Mavericks. Wigins was dealing with a small amount of ankle soreness but was never in any real danger of missing today’s game despite his questionable tag. He should be in line to play his usual minutes as a member of the Warriors starting lineup and can be considered in DFS contests.

Celtics will start Smart, Brown, Tatum, Horford and Theis on Saturday
Celtics will start Smart, Brown, Tatum, Horford and Theis on Saturday. This was the expected starting lineup after HC Ime Udoka shared that he planned on staying big with Theis if Robert Williams was ruled out rather than starting Grant Williams and keeping him in his bench role. Theis started the first four games of the postseason for the Celtics and played 20, 30, 17, and 19 minutes before returning to his bench role. It will be interesting to see how he is deployed tonight as there are a variety of ways his playing time could shakeout. Theis is a viable DFS option though he comes with a large range of potential outcomes.
As reported by: Keith Smith Heat will start Lowry, Strus, Butler, Tucker and Adebayo on Saturday
Heat will start Lowry, Strus, Butler, Tucker and Adebayo on Saturday. This was the expected lineup with Kyle Lowry making his return, Gabe Vincent will head to the bench and loses much of his appeal. There has been no word on if Lowry would be limited but it is a good sign that he is starting.
As reported by: Miami Heat Kyle Lowry (hamstring), P.J. Tucker (knee), Max Strus (hamstring), and Gabe Vincent (hamstring) all available Saturday
Kyle Lowry (hamstring), P.J. Tucker (knee), Max Strus (hamstring), and Gabe Vincent all available Saturday. Kyle Lowry will make his return to the starting lineup tonight and shouldn’t be on a strict (if any) sort of minutes restriction as there has been no mention of this. This will sap much of the value that Gabe Vincent has enjoyed as a member of the Heat starting lineup. Tucker, who was also considered legitimately questionable, will remain in the starting lineup and should continue in his usual role.

Robert Williams (knee) is officially out Saturday and Daniel Theis will start in his place for the Celtics. HC Ime Udoka will elect to keep Grant Williams in his role off the bench with Theis allowing the Celtics to continue to run a bigger lineup. When starting the first four games of the playoffs Theis played 20, 30, 17, and 19 minutes. Theis has a large range of potential outcomes as a member of the starting lineup and will be worth some consideration in DFS contests.
As reported by: Boston Celtics Daniel Theis will start if Robert Williams is ruled out per HC Ime Udoka
Daniel Theis will start if Robert Williams is ruled out per HC Ime Udoka. The Celtics will elect to run with a bigger lineup on Saturday against the Miami Heat instead of starting Grant Williams in the place of Robert Williams. Theis got the first 4 starts of the postseason for the Celtics and played 20, 30, 17, and 19 minutes before returning to his bench role. It will be interesting to see how he is deployed tonight as there are a variety of ways his playing time could shakeout. Theis is a viable DFS option though he comes with a large range of potential outcomes.

As reported by: Anthony Slater Robert Williams (knee) expected to be out Saturday
Robert Williams (knee) expected to be out Saturday. With Williams likely to miss, Grant Williams will likely enter the starting lineup with Al Horford shifting to the center position. Daniel Theis will likely see the bench big man minutes behind Horford and could be considered as a value option
As reported by: Adrian Wojnarowski Robert Williams (knee) questionable Saturday
Robert Williams (knee) is questionable for Saturday’s Game 3 against the Miami Heat. If Williams were to miss, Grant Williams would likely enter the starting lineup with Al Horford shifting to the center position. Daniel Theis would likely see the bench big man minutes behind Horford and could be considered as a value option.
As reported by: Boston Celtics Kyle Lowry (hamstring) and P.J. Tucker (knee) will both warm up with intention of playing Saturday per HC Erik Spoelstra
Kyle Lowry (hamstring) and P.J. Tucker (knee) will both warm up with intention of playing Saturday per HC Erik Spoelstra. This seems to be Spoelstra’s way of saying both players are closer to probable if we can go by his use of this phrase in the past. Both players should start for the Heat and Lowry’s return should send Gabe Vincent back to the bench and will likely limit the roles of both Duncan Robinson and Caleb Martin who could be forced from the rotation.
