Wes Iwundu
SF, Orlando Magic

Magic forward Wesley Iwundu will be rested on Monday against the Pistons.

Iwundu had complained of general soreness and the Magic won't take any chances. He's expected to fill a reserve role but does not carry a ton of fantasy value at the moment.

Jamal Murray
PG, Denver Nuggets

Jamal Murray couldn't lead the Nuggets past the Lakers in Thursday's 108-114 Game 4 loss with his 32 points, three boards, eight dimes and one block.

With the Lakers keying in on Nikola Jokic, Murray was able to get going early in the first quarter. When they threw traps at him early in offensive sets, Murray was able to adapt and attack earlier to get himself cleaner looks. The point is, Murray is a budding superstar and is having one of those breakthrough moments before our very eyes. The Nuggets are still big underdogs in this fight, but with Murray, they have a fighting chance.

Nikola Jokic
C, Denver Nuggets

Nikola Jokic scored 16 points on 6-of-13 shooting with seven rebounds, four assists, two steals and two triples in Thursday's Game 4 against the Lakers.

Jokic was stifled in the first part of the game as Dwight Howard drew the start and imposed his physicality early. The Joker is known for shying away from shot attempts when things aren't going easy for him, but he stepped up a bit in the second half and started to hit some open 3s to open up the offense for the Nuggets. Expect him to come out much more aggressive in Game 5 now that he can prepare for Howard in the starting lineup.

Michael Porter Jr.
PF, Denver Nuggets

Michael Porter Jr. scored 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting to go with eight rebounds, an assist, a steal and three 3-pointers in Thursday's Game 4 against the Lakers.

Porter Jr. had his shot going tonight, nailing some tough step-back 3s which makes it easier to play him considering his defensive weaknesses. The Lakers also deploy lineups with Rajon Rondo and Kyle Kuzma which help his case for staying on the floor.

Jerami Grant
SF, Denver Nuggets

Jerami Grant scored 17 points on 6-of-13 shooting to go with two boards, an assist and two 3-pointers in Thursday's Game 4 vs. the Lakers.

Grant had another great game for the Nuggets and continues to draw coverage on LeBron James and Anthony Davis while maintaining a solid scoring role. He has a player option this summer, but he'll surely decline and command a great deal of money in the open market as every team could use a guy like Grant on their roster.

Anthony Davis
PF-C, Los Angeles Lakers

Anthony Davis led the Lakers in scoring in their 114-108 win over the Nuggets on Thursday with a game-high 34 points on 10-of-15 shooting to go with five boards, three assists, three steals and a triple.

Davis started the game 6-for-6 at the field and cooked any Nuggets defender that was thrown at him. There was a slight scare when he rolled his ankle in the fourth quarter, but he shook it off and finished the game strong. He's increased his efficiency on his mid-range shots to a point where he's one of the best in the game at it and when he's drilling them at that rate, he's unstoppable. The lob threat is there and his defensive presence is felt as he anchors one of the best defenses in the playoffs.
