This year's playoffs have been quite lively, some teams have already been out, and the sweep has officially appeared. For most teams, the playoffs are just going through the motions and not really winning the championship. But we also need to know that this is the way it is in competitions, especially in the knockout rounds, where after each round, half of the teams will quit. So what information do you need to pay attention to in the near future? Timberwolves injury confirmed, Leonard updated, Booker preferred team, Bucks twin stars unknown.
The Timberwolves have maintained some fitness during the playoffs, but new injuries have been confirmed here. The injury has nothing to do with the players, but with head coach Finch. Everyone knows that Finch had an injury in G4, and according to the information disclosed now, Finch suffered a torn patellar tendon in his right knee, and the crutches were painful after the game. As far as this injury is concerned, it still needs attention, and the next game will be quite difficult.
The better thing now is that the Timberwolves have advanced and can at least rest for a while. Let's see how Finch handles the injury next and whether he will miss the game. Finch is a very pragmatic coach in the league and is quite capable. If Finch is absent from the game, it will be interesting to see how the assistant coaches are coaching on the sidelines. Either way, the next round is the real playoffs, and the real test, and it will help these players somewhat.
Leonard didn't play G4, so what's next? Judging by the information disclosed by Shams, Leonard is expected to miss more time due to knee inflammation and wait until his knee is flexible. As far as this is concerned, it is basically announced that Leonard is unlikely to play in the next game. It can only be said that the Clippers were too unlucky, and Leonard was healthy for a season in the regular season, but was injured in the playoffs.
The Suns are out, and the stay of the Big Three is also being discussed. Booker is the core of the team, and he is also in the discussion. Judging from the information revealed by A-Smith, Booker has a favorite team, and that is the Knicks. Booker is averaging 27.1 points and 6.9 assists per game this season, and is still the league's top scorer. However, if the Knicks have Brunson, it won't have much impact on whether Booker has it, not to mention that it will cost a certain price to get Booker.
The Bucks are on the verge of elimination, so what about Lillard and Brother Alphabet? Judging from the disclosure, the Bucks are unknown, and they are pessimistic about G5. In other words, the G5 duo have little chance of playing. In general, the two might as well not play, after all, the team is on the verge of going out, and the general situation this season cannot be changed, so let's prepare for next season.
