Joel Embiid is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Knicks. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Mitchell Robinson is questionable for Thursday's game against the 76ers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Luka Doncic (knee) is expected to play in Wednesday night's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Doncic's knee injury leaves him with an injury designation ahead of Wednesday night's game, but he's officially probable and should play against the Clippers. He should start and continue to see an elite workload in a playoff matchup against the Clippers.


Duncan Robinson (back) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Robinson will suit up for Miami on Wednesday. He's listed on the team's injury report because of a back injury, but they have already upgraded him to available for their major matchup against Boston. Jimmy Butler (knee) and Jaime Jaquez Jr. (hip) are both unavailable to play, so Robinson may see more work than usual in Miami's rotation.


Jaime Jaquez Jr. (hip) won't play in Wednesday's contest against the Boston Celtics. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: The rookie will miss Wednesday's game after injuring his hip in Miami's last contest. The exact severity of it is unknown at this point, but with Miami being down 3-1 and facing elimination, he may not see the court again this season. Jimmy Butler (knee) also remains out, so Duncan Robinson and Nikola Jovic are both likely to see increased minutes against Boston.


Haywood Highsmith (foot) is good to go for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: Highsmith is listed on Miami's injury report because of a foot injury that he's dealing with, but it's not considered serious and he will be available to play through it against Boston. Miami is currently down 3-1 in the series, so they will need him and several other players to perform very well if they want to avoid elimination.


Terry Rozier (neck) is still out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. (Source: NBA Injury Report)

Fantasy Impact: A neck injury will leave Rozier sidelined again on Wednesday. That shouldn't be a surprise to fantasy managers, as he hasn't taken the court since early April due to that issue. Delon Wright will continue to see increased minutes while the veteran is sidelined again.
