Ingram contributed 23 points (6-23 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 8-9 FT), six rebounds and two blocks over 36 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 victory over Cleveland in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Ingram was far more aggressive on the offensive end, getting up 23 shot attempts while also adding a pair of blocked shots. Although his radar was a tad askew, it was good to see Ingram playing on the front foot, as opposed to relying on others. Toronto will now head to Cleveland for Game 5, looking to build on its recent momentum.

Murray-Boyles amassed 15 points (5-11 FG, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals over 27 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 win over the Cavaliers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Murray-Boyles continues to play starter-level minutes despite coming off the bench, turning in another notable performance. Through the first four games of the series, the rookie is now averaging 17.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 25.4 minutes per contest, and he should continue to play a pivotal complementary role as the series shifts back to Cleveland.

Allen closed with three points (1-5 FG, 1-4 FT), 15 rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 loss to the Raptors in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Allen pulled down a game-high 15 rebounds, although he also scored his fewest points since the start of the regular season to round out a disappointing afternoon for Cleveland. Having now suffered back-to-back losses, the Cavaliers will head home, looking to turn things around and regain the series lead.

Wembanyama recorded 27 points (9-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 12 rebounds, seven blocks, four steals and three assists in 34 minutes during Sunday's 114-93 win over the Trail Blazers in Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series.

The Defensive Player of the Year made an immediate impact in his return from a concussion, anchoring both ends of the floor as the Spurs erased a 17-point halftime deficit to take a 3-1 series lead. Wembanyama's presence was especially felt defensively, where his seven blocks and four steals disrupted Portland's rhythm and helped fuel a dominant second-half turnaround. While De'Aaron Fox led the team in scoring with 28 points, Wembanyama's two-way dominance and interior control were central to shifting momentum after a slow start. The seven blocks tied for the most in a playoff game since Robert Williams logged nine blocks in 2021 against the Nets while with the Celtics.

Strus chipped in one point (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and seven rebounds over 21 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 loss to the Raptors in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Strus missed all five of his shot attempts, turning in a disappointing performance on both ends of the floor. His production thus far has been sporadic, going for 24 points and 15 points in Games 1 and 3, while managing just six points and one point in Games 2 and 4, respectively. Both teams will now travel back to Cleveland for Game 5, where the Cavaliers will look to bounce back after consecutive losses on the road.

Mobley chipped in eight points (4-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 loss to the Raptors in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Mobley was kept quiet on the offensive end, tallying just eight points, the fewest he has scored in these playoffs. He certainly wasn't alone in underperforming, with many of his teammates delivering subpar efforts. With the series now tied at 2-2, the two teams will head back to Cleveland for what promises to be a pivotal Game 5.

Drummond (hip) has returned to Sunday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the Celtics, per NBA broadcast.

Drummond exited for the locker room in the second quarter due to an apparent hip injury. However, he has since returned to the game, certainly a positive development given the amount of pain he appeared to be in before exiting.

Reaves (oblique) is out for Sunday's Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Rockets, Khobi Price of The California Post reports.

Reaves will miss a ninth consecutive game due to a left oblique strain. He appears to be nearing a return, however, as he was deemed a game-time decision and went through pregame warmups before eventually being ruled out. Luke Kennard and Marcus Smart figure to retain significant roles with Reaves sidelined.

Joe (personal) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's Game 4 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Suns.

Joe missed Saturday's Game 3 due to personal reasons, but he will return to the lineup Monday. In two postseason appearances, Joe has averaged 7.5 points, 1.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in 17.5 minutes per contest.

Drummond went to the locker room during Sunday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the Celtics due to an apparent hip injury, Bobby Manning of CLNS Media Network reports.

Drummond went down in pain while holding his right hip midway through the second quarter before heading to the locker room. If he is unable to return, Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow could see extra minutes.
