Suns' Saben Lee: Impactful in rare appearance
Lee put up four points (1-2 FG, 2-2 FT), two assists and one rebound across eight minutes during Thursday's 110-105 win over Houston.
In just his fifth appearance in February, the two-way guard was able to make the most of his limited minutes. Due to injuries to both Bradley Beal (hamstring) and Eric Gordon (groin), Lee has seen an increased role averaging 5.0 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 9.6 minutes per game. With Beal and Gordon seemingly returning to the rotation soon, expect a decrease in Lee's minutes.

Suns' Saben Lee: Rare appearance in victory
Lee totaled nine points (2-2 FG, 5-5 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes during Wednesday's 129-113 win over the Rockets.
Lee saw action for just the second time in the past eight games, finishing with nine points in 12 minutes. Although he does have a somewhat fantasy-friendly game, Lee rarely sees enough playing time to be considered a viable fantasy asset, even in deeper formats. Barring injuries to several other players, Lee seems destined to remain on the waiver wire for the remainder of the season.

Suns' Saben Lee: Lives at the charity stripe
Lee recorded 17 points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four assists and two rebounds in 15 minutes during Thursday's 123-100 preseason win over the Lakers.
Lee led Phoenix's bench in scoring despite playing just 15 minutes. His team-high eight free throws were a large factor in his scoring outburst. Lee is expected to play a depth role for the Suns' backcourt during the regular season.

Suns' Saben Lee: Fills in with nine assists
Lee tallied 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine assists and two rebounds across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 preseason loss to the Nuggets.
Bradley Beal and Devin Booker took a seat Tuesday, giving Lee a chance to show his stuff as the team's floor manager. Lee will have to contend with newcomers Eric Gordon and Grayson Allen for minutes in the second unit, and while a spot on the team is likely, a trip to the G League may be a possibility based on the team's backcourt depth.

Suns' Saben Lee: Back with Phoenix
Lee signed a two-way deal with the Suns on Thursday, Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic reports.
Lee was waived by the 76ers last November, but he latched on with the Suns via a 10-day contract in January. After landing another 10-day deal, he officially signed a two-way contract in February. Lee appeared in 23 contests for Phoenix in 2022-23 and averaged 6.3 points, 2.8 assists and 2.0 rebounds in 15.7 minutes per game, including a 25-point, 10-assist performance during the regular-season finale.

Suns' Saben Lee: Scores season-high 25 points
Lee ended Sunday's 119-114 loss to the Clippers with 25 points (8-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 44 minutes.
Lee stepped up Sunday, playing as the starting point guard with the Suns electing to rest basically their entire starting five. After putting together a few decent performances in January, Lee has fallen off the radar in recent times. Outside of potential blowouts, Lee figures to remain fixed to the bench most nights as we enter the postseason.
