    Kings' Nique Clifford: Posts decent line in blowout loss
    2h ago

    Clifford finished with 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt), eight rebounds and seven assists across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 132-104 loss to the Spurs.

    Clifford logged the second-highest minute total in the squad during a lackluster performance from most of the team. Clifford and Maxime Raynaud were the primary offensive catalysts during the blowout, and both players seem poised to be part of a youthful core that will likely remain on the roster while the team executes a complete overhaul. The 2025 first-round pick didn't do enough to make waves in the ROY race, but the Colorado State product has earned 20 starts this season and will likely continue that trend as the season winds down.

    Spurs' Keldon Johnson: Scores 18 points in garbage time
    2h ago

    Johnson amassed 18 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound and one assist across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 132-104 win over Sacramento.

    With the Spurs up by 31 points at halftime, the team cleared the bench and gave the first unit a rest. Johnson took advantage of the opportunity and posted 18 points in 20 minutes on the floor. Johnson has been able to do a lot with a little throughout the season and has been especially productive as a rebounder in limited action. Although he only registered one board in the blowout win, Johnson found success as a pure shooter in the victory. During his second season as a full-time backup, Johnsin is averaging 12,8 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists over 69 games.

    Wembanyama provided 18 points (7-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 132-104 victory over the Kings.

    The Spurs were up by 31 points at halftime, and the team wasted no time sending its starters to the bench. Although the lack of playing time snapped Wembanyama's three-game double-double streak, he was still able to make 14 shot attempts, connecting on half of them.

    Fox posted 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 132-104 victory over Sacramento.

    Fox enjoyed an accurate night on his former home court. Fox's results were much better than Stephon Castle's line, a trend that has happened more frequently as the season wears on. Although Fox logged his second consecutive game with fewer than 20 points, his diverse efforts in secondary categories have helped out his bottom line.

    Anderson amassed seven points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one block across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 victory over the Suns.

    Anderson logged 25 minutes off the bench, the most he has played since rejoining the Timberwolves. With Naz Reid forced to the locker room due to an ankle injury, albeit temporarily, Anderson was afforded a few extra minutes. If Reid is to miss any amount of time moving forward, Anderson could be on the radar as a potential streaming candidate given his ability to chip in across multiple categories.

    Timberwolves' Jaden McDaniels: Back on track Tuesday

    McDaniels delivered arguably his best performance of the month, coming off a string of bad games. Including this effort, McDaniels has been outside the top 250 in seven games over the past two weeks, averaging 8.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.6 three-pointers. However, with Anthony Edwards (knee) sidelined for up to two weeks, McDaniels is going to need to be more aggressive, particularly on the offensive end. Look for him to continue to build momentum in what could be a favorable matchup against the Jazz on Wednesday.

    Suns' Khaman Maluach: Muted role continues
    6h ago

    Maluach supplied two points (1-3 FG), two rebounds and one steal in 12 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 loss to Minnesota.

    Maluach logged fewer than 15 minutes for the fourth straight game despite having a clear path to playing time as the backup center. Even as the only other center on the roster not named Oso Ighodaro, Maluach has been a non-factor, averaging just 3.5 points and 3.3 rebounds in eight appearances over the past two weeks.

    Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Season-best performance
    6h ago

    Ighodaro closed with 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and three steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 loss to the Timberwolves.

    Ighodaro finally got things moving in the right direction, putting up easily his best performance since joining the starting unit. Despite the five-game week, Ighodaro's production had been highly disappointing prior to Tuesday, making him a tough hold in standard leagues. This effort should be enough to at least convince managers that the potential is there. While he might not be this good every night, the hope is that he can build off this performance, starting with Thursday's game against the Spurs.

    Raynaud finished with 32 points (13-25 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block in 41 minutes during Tuesday's 132-104 loss to the Spurs.

    As has been the case lately, Raynaud was one of the lone bright spots for Sacramento in a blowout loss. The rookie shot with efficiency on the offensive end and fell just one board shy of his fifth double-double of the month. Raynaud's 32-point night marks a new career high, which beats his previous best of 29 points set Dec. 18 against Portland.

    Huff closed with six points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 136-110 loss to the Knicks.

    Huff continues to come off the bench behind recently acquired Ivica Zubac, limiting his overall upside. In his past four games, all of which have been off the bench, Huff has averaged 10.3 points, 1.8 blocks and 1.3 three-pointers. Given the current roster construction, Huff should be looked at as nothing more than a blocks streamer.

    Reed produced 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 13 minutes during Tuesday's 130-117 victory over the Wizards.

    Despite Isaiah Stewart's continued absence due to a calf injury, Reed failed to make a significant impact. In two games without Stewart, Reed has logged 11 and 13 minutes, averaging 7.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. At this point, there are likely better streaming options available in most leagues.

    Gill closed with two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal in 16 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 130-117 loss to the Pistons.

    Gill missed out on a great opportunity, picking up three fouls in the first seven minutes, basically putting an end to any chance he had of delivering meaningful production. With Alex Sarr sidelined due to injury maintenance, it was Gill who was inserted into the starting lineup. Assuming Sarr returns for Thursday's game against the Pistons, Gill will likely return to some sort of a bench role.

    Randle produced 32 points (10-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 10-13 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 win over Phoenix.

    Randle racked up 32 points for a second straight game and provided plenty of scoring with Minnesota missing the services of Anthony Edwards (knee). Edwards has been ruled out for at least the next week, meaning the Timberwolves' offense should continue to run through Randle for the next three games or so.

    The star big man tied James Harden for the game high in points, with Mobley reaching the 20-point threshold for a second time in the last three games. The 24-year-old also grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds, securing his second consecutive double-double and fourth on the month. Additionally, the 2024-25 Defensive Player of the Year posted a game-high three blocks, swatting multiple shots for the fifth time in the last six games.

    Holmgren led the Thunder in rebounds Tuesday while finishing as the team's second-leading scorer behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (40 points). It was Holmgren's 22nd double-double of the season, which is tied with Kel'el Ware for 17th in the NBA. Holmgren has averaged 19.0 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.5 threes and 1.0 blocks over 29.9 minutes per game since March 1.

    Banchero helped the Magic keep pace with the Thunder on Tuesday, particularly out of halftime with 15 points in the third quarter. He has recorded three double-doubles over his last four games and has logged 24 for the year, which is tied with Ivica Zubac for 14th in the Association. Banchero has averaged 25.5 points, 9.4 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.4 threes over 35.6 minutes per game since March 1.

    Diabate bounced back following a four-point, five-rebound performance during Saturday's loss to San Antonio, though he seemingly picked up a hand injury late in the fourth quarter Tuesday. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Thursday's game against the Magic. If the big man is forced to miss time, Ryan Kalkbrenner would likely see increased playing time, while Xavier Tillman could enter the rotation.

While managers could look at him as a viable streaming option, his availability is likely to fluctuate based on who else is available on any given night for the Pacers.

    Despite the small amount of playing time, Penda's minus-16 point differential was second worst on the Magic behind Jett Howard (minus-23), and the former sat on the bench for the entire second half. It wasn't a great sign for Penda, who entered Tuesday's game averaging 17.0 minutes per game since March 3. The rookie second-rounder should still see some playing time off the bench for as long as Jonathan Isaac (knee), Franz Wagner (ankle) and Anthony Black (abdomen) are sidelined, but Penda's lack of playing time in the second half is worth monitoring.

    Hart posted his first 30-point performance of the 2025-26 campaign, and he needed only 26 minutes to do so with the help of an incredible shooting performance. The 31-year-old oozed confidence on the offensive end, where he went a perfect 5-for-5 from deep and missed only one shot from the field.

    Booker topped 30 points for the sixth time in his past seven games, although his peripheral contributions continue to be largely underwhelming. This is demonstrated by the fact that in four games over the past week, despite averaging 37.0 points per game, Booker has been barely a top 70 player in standard leagues.

As usual, Washington continues to shuffle its rotation on a nightly basis, meaning fantasy production cannot be relied upon. With that said, Trae Young is now dealing with a quad injury, which could provide Carrington with an opportunity to play consistent minutes.

    Jenkins started the second half after Cade Cunningham was ruled out of the remainder of Tuesday's game due to back spasms. Although Jenkins was able to make the most of his opportunity, fantasy managers will want to be cautious before picking him up. Considering this game was against the Wizards, there is a decent chance Detroit simply took additional precautions regarding Cunningham.
