Productive in return
Lively posted nine points (3-3 FG, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 25 minutes during Thursday's 124-103 win over Minnesota in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.
Analyse
Lively returned to action Thursday after missing Game 4 due to a neck injury. The rookie big man returned to his role of coming off the bench but splitting minutes at the center position with Daniel Gafford as a platoon. Lively averaged 9.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.5 blocks in 22.0 minutes across his four appearances in the Western Conference Finals.

Available to play Thursday
Lively (neck) is available for Thursday's Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves.
Analyse
Lively participated in the Mavericks' morning shootaround and underwent his routine in the pre-game warmups, so it's unsurprising to see him available, as he looked active and had no apparent limitations in his movements. He'll see regular minutes off the bench, as he's logged 21.0 minutes per game in the current series while averaging 9.7 points and 7.7 rebounds per contest.

Present at shootaround
Lively (neck) was present at the Mavericks' morning shootaround ahead of Thursday's Game 5 against Minnesota, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.
Analyse
Lively is considered a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup, but it was encouraging to see him on the court for the team's morning shootaround. The Mavericks will likely monitor how his neck sprain feels leading up to tipoff, while Daniel Gafford should continue to see increased playing time if Lively is unavailable.

Considered a game-time decision
Lively (neck) is considered a game-time decision for Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Analyse
Lively officially remains questionable, and he plans to test his neck in the hours leading up to tipoff before the Mavericks determine his status. He'd provide a boost for Dallas as the team attempts to close out the series, as he averaged 11.5 points and 10.0 rebounds in 27.0 minutes per game over the first two games of the Western Conference Finals.

Questionable for Game 5
Lively (neck) is questionable for Thursday's Game 5 matchup with Minnesota.
Analyse
Lively missed Game 4 due to his sprained neck, but he does appear to be trending in a positive direction. We should get another update following Thursday's shootaround, but if Lively is able to return, Daniel Gafford's minutes would dip and Dwight Powell could fall out of the rotation entirely.

Could return for Game 5
Lively (neck) could return as soon as Thursday's Game 5 against Minnesota, Shams Charania said on FanDuel's Run It Back.
Analyse
Lively avoided the concussion protocol and is apparently trending in a positive direction. If Lively is able to give it a go, Dwight Powell would be unlikely to crack the rotation and Maxi Kleber's floor would be a bit lower in fantasy formats. More clarity is expected on Wednesday afternoon after the Mavericks practice.

Ruled out for Game 4
Lively (neck) has been ruled out for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Analyse
Lively was initially deemed doubtful for Tuesday's matchup due to his neck sprain, and he'll officially be forced to miss at least one game as the Mavericks attempt to close out the series. It's unclear whether Lively will be able to return if the Western Conference Finals continue past Tuesday or if the Mavericks advance to the NBA Finals, which begin June 6. Dwight Powell is a candidate to see increased playing time in Lively's absence.

Doubtful for Game 4
Lively (neck) is doubtful for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.
Analyse
Lively sustained a neck sprain during Sunday's Game 3 and was unavailable down the stretch. He wasn't seen at Monday's practice session and will likely be sidelined Tuesday as the Mavericks attempt to advance to the NBA Finals. If Dallas wins Game 4 to complete the sweep, Lively would have over a week to rest before the NBA Finals begin June 6.

Status for Game 4 unclear
Tests on Lively's neck came back clean, but his availability for Tuesday's Game 4 against Minnesota remains unclear, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
Analyse
The initial diagnosis for Lively was a sprained neck, and the center will continue to be evaluated Monday. More clarity is expected Monday evening, but for now, Lively should be considered questionable for Tuesday's Game 4.
