Anthony Davis (back) cleared to play in Game 2 for Lakers Monday

Anthony Davis (back) will play in Game 2 of the Los Angeles Lakers' playoff series with the Denver Nuggets on Monday.

What It Means:

Davis played 44.5 minutes in the Lakers' Game 1 loss to Denver and should be in line for a similar workload tonight as the Lakers try to even the score. He scored 66.3 FanDuel points in that contest.

Davis is projected for 56.4 FanDuel points in Game 2, with 23.2 points, 15.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists. FanDuel has set his salary at $11,200.

Lakers' LeBron James (ankle) available for Game 2 Monday

The Los Angeles Lakers will have LeBron James (ankle) available for Game 2 of their playoff series with the Denver Nuggets on Monday.

What It Means:

As expected, James will suit up for Game 2 on Monday after opening the day with a probable designation. The veteran should be a full-go as the Lakers battle back from a Game 1 loss.

James has a $10,300 salary for Monday's game and is projected for 50.8 FanDuel points off of 25 points, 9 rebounds, and 8.3 assists. He has played over 40 minutes in each of the Lakers' last 2 games, including the Play-In Tournament.

Clippers' Kawhi Leonard (knee) questionable for Game 2 Tuesday

The Los Angeles Clippers listed Kawhi Leonard (knee) as questionable for Game 2 of their playoff series with the Dallas Mavericks.

What It Means:

Leonard missed the Clippers first game of the playoffs after missing the final eight games of the regular season with a knee injury. His questionable designation gives him a shot to suit up against the Mavericks in Game 2. Los Angeles pulled off a win without Leonard in Game 1, but could certainly use his steady presence on the court going forward.

If he can play, our model would have Leonard going for 38.8 FanDuel points against Dallas off of 20.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 3.5 assists. FanDuel has set his salary at $8,200.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) doubtful for Bucks in Game 2 Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is considered doubtful to play Tuesday in the team's game against the Indiana Pacers.

What It Means:

Antetokounmpo is still dealing with a left soleus strain. He missed Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals with the injury, and it seems as though he'll remain sidelined for Game 2. Expect another Bobby Portis start.

Our models project Portis for 16.6 points, 10.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 34.0 Fanduel points across 30.6 minutes of action.

Haynes: Joel Embiid (injury recovery) will play in 76ers' playoff game Monday

The Philadelphia 76ers will have Joel Embiid (injury recovery) available for Game 2 of their playoff series with the New York Knicks on Monday.

What It Means:

Embiid will play through his ongoing knee issues on Monday despite appearing to aggravate his injury during Game 1. The reigning MVP's health will be critical to Philadelphia's success this postseason.

Our model projects the star for 53.8 FanDuel points against the Knicks in Game 2, with 26.8 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 5.4 assists. He has an $11,500 salary for this evening's contests.

Sorry, there are no more blurbs for this feed.
