    Ayo Dosunmu said he is not taking playoff basketball for granted as he moves toward a second postseason appearance, this time with Minnesota after February’s trade from Chicago. He has become an important part of the Timberwolves’ push for a top-six seed in the West. Minnesota traded for Dosunmu because they wanted more backcourt playmaking and versatility, and he has delivered career-best scoring and efficiency this season. Dosunmu said his early playoff experience with Chicago taught him that postseason chances are not guaranteed and must be valued when they come.

    Chicago fired executive vice president Arturas Karnišovas and general manager Marc Eversley after another failed season, while Atlanta strengthened its frontcourt by signing Tony Bradley for the playoff push. Both moves signal late-season roster and leadership correction in the East. Multiple reports confirmed Chicago ended the AKME era after a 224-254 run with only one playoff appearance, with Michael Reinsdorf citing the need for a new direction. In Atlanta, reporting said the Hawks waived Caleb Houstan to open a roster spot and signed Bradley after his 38-game season with Indiana.

The league said facts remain in dispute, even though it has already established that Milwaukee scheduled Giannis for return-to-play scrimmage work that he declined. Giannis says he is healthy enough to play, while the Bucks continue to list him out with a left knee hyperextension and bone bruise. The league is now examining whether Milwaukee’s actions complied with player participation rules, with the disagreement unfolding publicly as the season closes.

    Stephen Curry is set to return for Golden State against Houston after missing 27 straight games with a right knee issue. His comeback gives the Warriors a major lift as they try to stabilise their season and push through the play-in race. Curry said the rehab included long and frustrating setbacks, with pain repeatedly returning after workouts. He is officially listed as questionable, but the expectation is that he will play if there is no last-minute setback, likely with managed minutes.

    Austin Reaves will miss the rest of the regular season after the Lakers confirmed a Grade 2 oblique muscle injury. His absence, combined with Luka Doncic’s hamstring problem, leaves Los Angeles shorthanded for the final five games of the regular season. Reaves was injured in the Oklahoma City loss, underwent an MRI, and was later ruled out for the regular season. The Lakers now need to protect their playoff position without one of their main scorers and creators, while the team evaluates longer-term postseason availability.

    Cooper Flagg scored 51 points in Dallas’ loss to Orlando and became the first teenager ever to reach 50 points in an NBA game. The performance came in dramatic fashion after frustration over a missed foul call led to ejections on the Mavericks bench. Flagg exploded for 24 fourth-quarter points after Jason Kidd and Naji Marshall were ejected protesting a no-call. He finished 19-for-30 from the field and hit the milestone in the closing minutes, even though Dallas still fell 138-127 for its 14th straight home loss.

    Luka Doncic will miss the rest of the regular season after the Lakers confirmed a Grade 2 strain in his left hamstring. The injury arrives at a brutal time for Los Angeles and leaves Doncic one game short of the standard 65-game awards threshold. The strain was revealed after an MRI following his injury in the blowout loss to Oklahoma City. Associated Press reported the Lakers have only five regular-season games left, making a return before the playoffs unrealistic, while Doncic’s camp plans to challenge the award-eligibility issue through the league’s extraordinary circumstances process.

    Luka Doncic injured his left hamstring in the Lakers’ blowout loss to Oklahoma City and is set for an MRI. The injury came during another poor night for Los Angeles, which also saw Austin Reaves dealing with a back issue as the team’s four-game winning streak ended. JJ Redick said Doncic first felt the issue in the first half, received treatment at halftime, then returned before aggravating it in the third quarter. Reuters reported he left with 12 points in a 139-96 defeat, while Reaves played through pain before sitting the fourth.

    Cade Cunningham will miss at least another week as he continues recovering from a collapsed left lung, with Detroit confirming he will be re-evaluated again in seven days. The delay keeps one of the East’s best players out during the final stretch of the regular season. The Pistons said Cunningham is being monitored by doctors and performance staff as he works his way back. Detroit have already secured the Central Division and hold a four-game lead for the top seed in the East, giving them some cushion while their lead guard remains sidelined.
