Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (calf) will miss Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics. The Cavaliers superstar initially picked up a questionable tag ahead of the contest due to a left calf strain. But it appears as though the injury is quite severe, and it won't let Mitchell play on Monday. Caris LeVert will enter the starting lineup in Mitchell's place. He averaged 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 7.0 assists in 10 starts during the regular season. Mitchell's absence also means Darius Garland has to step up on Cleveland's backcourt.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Mike Conley was very close to his second postseason double-double of the year as the team went 115-107 down to the Nuggets on Sunday. The veteran scored 15 points on 5-for-12 shooting, hitting three of seven attempts from downtown, and handed out a game-high nine assists. Conley also extended his streak with at least one steal to seven games and grabbed a pair of rebounds. It's been a good postseason campaign for Conley, who's averaging 11.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 7.0 assists, and 1.1 steals in 31.8 minutes in the playoffs.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards scored 44 points on 16-for-25 shooting in Sunday's Game 4 loss to Denver, setting a new career playoff high and a franchise record. In fact, Edwards now boasts the top three postseason-scoring performances in Timberwolves history. On Sunday, he was also able to notch five rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one block while shooting 5-for-8 from deep. The 22-year-old has looked incredible this postseason, averaging 32.1 points, and something even more special could be coming up from him as Minnesota tries to shift the momentum of the series in the next couple of games.

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray notched 19 points with five rebounds, eight assists, and two steals as the team tied the second-round series against Minnesota with a 115-107 win on Sunday. Murray was once again questionable for the contest with a calf strain, but he logged 39 minutes despite the ailment and performed just fine, even hitting a half-court shot at the buzzer to close out the first half. He finished with 8-for-17 shooting, going 3-for-7 with the three-ball. Murray had a bad start to the series, but he's now shot at least 40 percent from deep in back-to-back games, picking up good momentum ahead of Tuesday's Game 5.

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon had a red-hot outing against the Timberwolves in Game 4 on Sunday, hitting 27 points with 11-for-12 shooting from the field.

He made both attempts from deep and shot 3-for-3 at the line, capping off the night with seven rebounds, six assists, two blocks, and one steal. Gordon set his career playoff high with 29 points versus the Lakers a couple of weeks back and now boasts three 20-plus efforts in total this postseason. He's been extremely efficient with his work on the offensive end against Minnesota, averaging 17.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 1.5 steals with 71.8 percent shooting.
