DeRozan accumulated 33 points (10-16 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 10-10 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 134-133 overtime loss to Portland.

It was a vintage DeRozan night, as the veteran finished with 33 points on only 16 shots. He also made all 10 of his free throws. His scoring total matched a season high from November, when he also scored 33 against Minnesota. Now in year 17, DeRozan's scoring average (18.2) is below 20 points per game for the first time since the 2012-13 season. Still, DeRozan is good for an occasional scoring burst and decent overall fantasy production.

Goodwin totaled nine points (3-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 30 minutes during Thursday's 99-98 win over Golden State.

While it wasn't an efficient shooting display, Goodwin provided a full stat line during Thursday's low-scoring affair. His spot in the rotation remains safe for now, though it sounds like Jalen Green (hamstring) is inching closer to returning, and Grayson Allen (knee) appears to be just day-to-day. Over his last nine outings, Goodwin has averaged 9.9 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.6 steals in 22.7 minutes per game.

Young (knee) is out for Friday's game against Spurs.

With Friday being the second leg of a back-to-back, it doesn't come as much of a surprise that the Hawks are holding Young out due to right knee injury management. The superstar guard logged 20 minutes during Thursday's 133-126 loss to the Hornets in what was his first game back in the lineup since Oct. 29. Nickeil Alexander-Walker should jump right back into the first unit Friday, and Vit Krejci is also worth streaming in category-based leagues.

Pickett totaled nine points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and seven assists over 24 minutes during Thursday's 126-115 win over the Magic.

With several players injured in Denver, Pickett has emerged with some solid performances recently. Over his last three appearances, Pickett has averaged 6.7 points, 4.7 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 21.6 minutes per contest.

Ighodaro closed Thursday's 99-98 victory over the Warriors with two points (1-3 FG), 13 rebounds, one block and five steals across 28 minutes.

Ighodaro stood out for his defensive performance against the Warriors, notching season-high tallies in rebounds and steals. The 23-year-old also saw his most minutes over his last six appearances. However, he has been part of the second unit for almost every game, which isn't likely to change with Mark Williams, Nick Richards and Khaman Maluach all competing for minutes.

Sanders racked up five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 30 minutes during Thursday's 122-101 loss to the Thunder.

Sanders was barely able to tie his season-high mark in assists despite playing more minutes than usual due to James Harden's (calf) absence. Sanders is expected to remain a bench option in upcoming action as he looks to end a run of five games without scoring in double figures.

Clark (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Clark was a very late addition to the injury report. His role has been trending down, and he logged just nine minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies.

Vassell accumulated 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Thursday's 119-94 victory over Washington.

Vassell helped his side to victory with an all-around effort in Thursday's clash. The versatile man has started in every game of the current season, and his average of 15.8 points per contest is now the fourth-highest mark on the Spurs.

Avdija chipped in 35 points (12-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 10-12 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 42 minutes during Thursday's 134-133 overtime victory over Sacramento.

Avdija had another excellent outing against the Kings, registering his eighth 30-point game of the season. He did so while shooting 12-for-19 from the floor and converting ten made free throws, the final two coming in overtime with one second remaining to give his team the win. In December, Avdija is averaging 9.7 free-throw attempts per game, which trails only Luka Doncic (10.4). Avdija's game is blossoming rapidly. Over his last 10 outings, he hasn't finished a game with fewer than four rebounds, five assists or 16 points.

Castle finished with 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block across 25 minutes during Thursday's 119-94 win over the Wizards.

Castle's scoring numbers dropped a bit after averaging 23.3 points per game over his previous three appearances, but he made up for it with playmaking output. He has remained busy since returning from a hip injury, producing multiple assists and at least 17 points in four consecutive contests.
