• Hornets' Bismack Biyombo: Muted effort in starting role

  3D ago •

  Biyombo totaled just four points, six rebounds, one assist and one block in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 113-108 victory over the Nets. Biyombo continues to start for the Hornets, however, he only managed 24 minutes on Wednesday. Both he and Cody Zeller are splitting minutes right now, basically canceling each other out in terms of their fantasy value. Until we establish who might earn the lion's share of the playing time, neither are strong pickups in standard formats.

• Hornets' Bismack Biyombo: Double-double in win

  4D ago •

  Biyombo scored 13 points (4-6 FG, 5-6 FT) while adding 15 rebounds in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 114-107 win over the Wizards. He essentially split minutes at center with Cody Zeller, but it's hard to argue with the result as both big men recorded double-doubles against a thin Wizards frontcourt. Biyombo's was his second of the season, and since moving into the starting five in late November, the 27-year-old is averaging only 8.6 points, 7.3 boards and 0.9 blocks in 21.9 minutes over the last eight games.

• Hornets' Bismack Biyombo: Scores 11 points in limited minutes

  6D ago •

  Biyombo had 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 FT) and four rebounds in 15 minutes during Sunday's 122-107 loss against the Hawks. Biyombo has made seven consecutive starts but he hasn't produced as expected, scoring in double figures just three times and grabbing 10-plus rebounds just once. He is never going to be much of a scoring threat and his playing time has been scarce, however, as he has topped the 20-minute mark just once over his last five outings. Due to this, he is never going to be a relevant, high-upside fantasy asset even if he starts on a regular basis.

• Hornets' Bismack Biyombo: Starts again Saturday

  14D ago •

  Biyombo will remain in the starting lineup Saturday against the Bucks. Cody Zeller will be active after missing the last two games with a bruised hip but won't play a large role. Biyombo will square off against fellow backup center Robin Lopez, with the Bucks' usual starter Brook Lopez out with back soreness.

• Hornets' Bismack Biyombo: One rebound shy of double-double

  15D ago •

  Biyombo had 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 FT), nine rebounds, two blocks and two assists in 34 minutes during Friday's 110-107 win at Detroit. Biyombo has moved into the starting unit due to Cody Zeller's injury woes, and he has been surprisingly productive after nearing double-doubles in each of his two starts. He will probably head back to the bench once Zeller is able to return, but he should experience a considerable rise on his short-term value due to a marked increase on his playing time.
