Miami Heat guard Pelle Larsson (ankle) has been upgraded from questionable to probable for Friday's play-in matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The rookie has been out since April 7 with a sprained ankle but started in six consecutive games before going down with the injury. Head coach Erik Spoelstra said that he expects Larsson to be able to suit up, so it seems he could receive some minutes. It's unclear whether or not he'll move back into the starting lineup, though. Across 55 appearances this season, Larsson averaged 4.6 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game. If he does see some playing time, he'll likely take some minutes from Alec Burks and Davion Mitchell.

Miami Heat forward Kevin Love (personal) was originally listed as questionable for Friday night's play-in game against the Atlanta Hawks, but it looks like he'll be downgraded to out. According to NBA Insider Ira Winderman, the veteran big man has left the team for ongoing family reasons. There haven't been reports that suggest what exactly is going on, but the team will move forward without him in the meantime. That likely means that Kel'el Ware, Kyle Anderson, and Haywood Highsmith will continue to get minutes in the frontcourt. Ware has taken over the starting spot and registered six points, nine rebounds, three assists, and one steal in their win over the Chicago Bulls.

Miami Heat forward Nikola Jovic (hand) is dealing with a broken hand and is considered questionable for Friday's play-in game against the Atlanta Hawks. According to Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald, head coach Erik Spoelstra said that he expects both Jovic and Pelle Larsson (ankle) to play. Still, it seems unlikely that Jovic will be used even if he is upgraded. The third-year forward hasn't played since February 23, and hasn't played more than 46 games in a season yet. This year, he averaged a career-high in minutes per game (25.1) and posted 10.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.7 threes per game. Kyle Anderson and Haywood Highsmith will likely continue to receive some more minutes off of the bench in his place.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (thumb) will suit up for Saturday's matchup against the Detroit Pistons. Due to a right thumb sprain, Anunoby sat out two of the final three regular-season games, but the team has not listed him on the injury report ahead of Saturday's Game 1. Anunoby had higher offensive usage late in the regular season and averaged a career-high 18.0 points for the year. But fantasy managers should not expect similar postseason numbers with Jalen Brunson (ankle) back in the lineup.

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's Game 1 against the Detroit Pistons. The savvy guard battled an ankle sprain during the final few weeks of the regular season and skipped the regular-season finale on Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. Prior to that, Brunson featured in four consecutive games, so he should be in top shape for the postseason. In the first-round series against Detroit, Brunson will square off against Cade Cunningham in a fascinating head-to-head battle. The Knicks star notched 28.3 points and 7.8 assists with 41.9 percent three-point shooting in four regular-season clashes against the Pistons.
