Holmgren accumulated 10 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 121-109 win over the Suns in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Holmgren's only miss came from three-point territory, and he again did an excellent job of locking down the paint for Oklahoma City. Through the first three games of this series, Holmgren has racked up a total of eight swats.

Mitchell notched 15 points (5-20 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes during Saturday's 121-109 victory over the Suns in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Mitchell got the start with Jalen Williams (hamstring) unavailable, and he led the team in shot attempts. However, he converted only five of his 20 field-goal tries, so it'll be interesting to see if he sticks as a starter for Game 4 on Monday. Cason Wallace finished with six points (2-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, two steals and one block over 26 minutes.

Gilgeous-Alexander finished Saturday's 121-109 win over the Suns in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 42 points (15-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 11-12 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 38 minutes.

Gilgeous-Alexander got whatever he wanted, slicing through the Suns' defense with ease and opening the game with nine straight makes. He didn't miss his first shot until midway through the third quarter and finished with a new playoff career-high in points. The Thunder will be looking to end the Suns' season in Phoenix on Monday.

Reaves (oblique) is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 in Houston, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

If Reaves is cleared for Sunday's game, he'll likely have some sort of minutes restriction. His return would likely translate to fewer minutes for Rui Hachimura and Luke Kennard.

Booker (ankle) returned to Saturday's Game 3 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Thunder with 6:56 remaining in the third quarter, per the broadcast.

Booker appeared to injure his left ankle earlier in the quarter and hobbled to the locker room. However, the star guard returned to the court shortly thereafter, missing less than three minutes of game time.

Booker exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Saturday's Game 3 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Thunder due to an apparent left ankle injury, Hayden Cilley of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Booker appeared to trip and immediately grabbed his left ankle before hobbling to the locker room. If the star guard is unable to return, Grayson Allen will likely help pick up the slack.

Embiid (abdomen) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the Celtics.

Embiid participated in on-court work Saturday, though he's still expected to remain on the inactive list Sunday after undergoing an appendectomy April 10. If the star big man is ultimately ruled out, Adem Bona and Andre Drummond will likely continue splitting the center minutes.

Oubre is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 matchup with the Celtics due to right adductor soreness.

If Oubre needs to sit out Game 4, Dominick Barlow, Jabari Walker and Trendon Watford would have a chance to get back into the rotation. Check back for another update on Oubre's status closer to Sunday's tipoff.

Lawson (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against Cleveland.

Lawson popped up on the injury report because of back spasms. The 25-year-old logged 14 minutes in Game 1 of the series, though he recorded only seven total minutes in the last two contests, meaning his absence won't have much of an impact on the rotation.

Banchero finished with 25 points (6-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 11-14 FT), 12 rebounds, nine assists, three steals and two blocks across 38 minutes in Saturday's 113-105 win over Detroit in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Banchero easily had his best showing of this series by falling one assist short of a triple-double. With Orlando now leading the series 2-1, the 23-year-old will look to keep his club on track when the Magic and Pistons meet again for Game 4 on Monday night.
