Prince supplied three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two steals over seven minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 loss to the Knicks.

Prince made his first appearance of the regular season after missing Detroit's previous three games. The veteran forward connected on one three-pointer and recorded two steals but failed to register a rebound or assist. His limited playing time suggests he will primarily serve as depth in Detroit's rotation, leaving him without meaningful fantasy value in standard leagues.

Bridges amassed 12 points (4-10 FG, 4-8 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 victory over the Pistons.

Following a 0-for-10 start from beyond the arc through three games this season, Bridges was finally able to find his range to help the Knicks earn their first victory of 2026-27. The 12 points were also a season high, so the hope is that Bridges can carry this momentum going forward.

Garza posted two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and four rebounds over 13 minutes during Tuesday's 125-124 overtime victory over Brooklyn.

Garza struggled to make an impact offensively, connecting on just one of his four field-goal attempts. The reserve center played fewer minutes than both Mitchell Robinson and Neemias Queta, highlighting his limited role in Boston's frontcourt rotation. Garza remains off the fantasy radar in standard leagues.

Robinson closed Tuesday's 125-124 overtime win over the Nets with seven points (3-4 FG, 1-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes.

Robinson started at center but delivered a relatively quiet performance, collecting five rebounds without recording a blocked shot. He also struggled at the charity stripe, converting just one of four attempts. Robinson continues to share frontcourt minutes with Neemias Queta and Luka Garza, limiting his fantasy upside.

Black closed Tuesday's 130-103 loss to San Antonio with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal across eight minutes.

Black soaked up some garbage-time minutes in Tuesday's rout. It was his first appearance of the season, so Black looks to be buried on the rebuilding Kings' depth chart.

Johnson ended with 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Celtics.

Johnson delivered an efficient performance off the bench, connecting on three triples while playing 29 minutes. The rookie forward also contributed a steal but fouled out of the contest. His playing time and willingness to shoot from beyond the arc make him an intriguing player to monitor in deeper fantasy leagues.

Sharpe finished Tuesday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Celtics with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and one steal in 17 minutes.

Sharpe started at center but saw limited playing time, with Moritz Wagner logging 22 minutes off the bench. Although Sharpe provided three combined steals and blocks, his modest offensive involvement and reduced minutes were disappointing. The distribution of minutes between Brooklyn's centers will be worth monitoring.

Harper logged 13 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 130-103 victory over Sacramento.

Harper is settling in as a starter on the wing for the Spurs. The eventual return of Tobias Harris (calf) could complicate matters in the Spurs' first unit, but Harper should continue to enjoy an amplified role at least for the time being.

Clingan produced nine points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one block in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 136-129 victory over the Lakers.

It's worth noting Robert Williams double-doubled Tuesday and closed the game in place of Clingan. The 26 minutes were still a season high for Clingan, so it appears there's plenty of room for both big men to be productive even if Williams continues to cut further into Clingan's playing time.

Drummond recorded 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds and one assist over 14 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 win over Detroit.

After two straight outings with fewer than 10 minutes of action, Drummond got a bit more run with Karl-Anthony Towns battling foul trouble. Across four games this season, Drummond is averaging 7.0 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 13.2 minutes.
