Fantasy Basketball Notes, Tips and Advice for April 28, 2026

Per Rotoworld, "Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 24 points (8-of-19 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), 16 rebounds, four assists, three steals and four three-pointers in a 113-97 loss to the 76ers in Game 5 on Tuesday. Though it was a subpar shooting night for him, Tatum was still able to make a big impact in this game. He had a point-assist double-double in Game 4, but he got his double-double on the glass in this one. Tatum has shot at least 50 percent in the Celtics’ three wins during this series and below 50 percent in the two losses. If they want to close this series out in Game 6 on Thursday, Tatum will have to shoot the ball better than he did in this game."

Per Rotoworld, "Tyrese Maxey posted a full line on Tuesday with 25 points (10-of-18 FGs), 10 rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block and three three-pointers against the Celtics. Maxey took a backseat to Joel Embiid once again, but he still got enough touches and shots to stuff the stat sheet in the Game 5 win. He has scored at least 20 points in every game this series, which is a trend that will need to continue for the 76eres to have a chance to win. Game 6 will be in Philadelphia on Thursday, where Maxey will look to keep up the scoring. This was also his best rebounding performance of the season, which is a trend that will hopefully continue."
