    Watford led all bench players in Monday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-high mark from the field and ending as one of two players with 20 or more points in his best offensive performance of the year. Watford set a new season high in scoring, surpassing the 20-point mark for the first time. Watford previously tallied a season-high point total March 25 when he posted 19 points.

  • Nets' Trendon Watford: Leads bench in near double-double

  • Nets' Trendon Watford: Scores season-high mark Monday

    Watford chipped in 19 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and seven rebounds in 21 minutes during Monday's 96-88 win over Toronto.

    The Nets didn't have their best offensive performance, as evidenced by the fact they only scored 96 points, but Watford made his presence felt off the bench with his best scoring mark of the season. Watford might gain a more significant role if the Nets are eliminated from playoff contention, but for now, he should remain a bench alternative with limited fantasy upside.

    Watford had 14 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and seven rebounds over 19 minutes during Tuesday's 108-81 loss to the Magic.

    Watford is not the most consistent performer and doesn't have a steady role in the rotation, but he's making a solid case for more minutes off the bench in a Nets team that doesn't have a clear direction with a few weeks left in the regular season. Watford has scored in double digits in each of his last three bench appearances in which he's logged double-digit minutes.

    Watford closed Wednesday's 136-86 loss to the Celtics with 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes.

    Watford saw extended playing for the second time in three games as the Nets saw themselves down by as many as 56 points in Wednesday's loss. He and Mikal Bridges were the only two Brooklyn players to score in double digits. Watford is averaging 6.0 points across 12.1 minutes per game this season and doesn't figure to get more playing time following the All-Star break.
