According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Anunoby's injury situation has been upgraded from "out" to "questionable" ahead of Game 7, which will take place tonight.

The player is likely to participate in a shootaround before the game to see if he is fit to return.

Anunoby suffered the injury late in the third period of Game 2 versus the Pacers on a layup attempt. He had scored a playoff-career-high 28 points before exiting the game. The forward has been out since then.

He is averaging 16.4 points (50% FG), 6.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 steals, and 1.1 blocks per game in the NBA playoffs.

Currently, the series is tied 3-3. The winner will advance to become the second finalist for the Eastern Conference and play a series against the Boston Celtics.
