Drummond finished with 14 points (7-9 FG), 10 rebounds and two steals in 25 minutes during Sunday's 113-98 loss to the Magic.

Drummond continues to deliver energy and strong contributions in the rebounding column every time he steps on the field. However, efficient performances on offense, such as this one, are a plus. Drummond has been excellent in per-minute value, as evidenced by his averages of 9.8 points, 11.2 rebounds and 0.6 blocks across 19.4 minutes per game over his last 10 outings.

Landale totaled 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-6 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 16 minutes during Sunday's 147-136 overtime loss to the Mavericks.

Landale reached double-digit scoring for the second straight game Sunday. He has provided solid backup minutes at center behind Jabari Smith since the injury to Alperen Sengun (ankle) in March. The Rockets were eliminated from playoff contention following Sunday's loss, so Landale could see some additional playing time during the last week of the regular season.

Hartenstein closed with 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 122-109 win over the Bucks.

Mitchell Robinson continues to play a limited role off the bench, and Hartenstein likely holds onto his starting job moving forward. He's been a top-50 player in nine-category formats for the past month, averaging 10.6 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks.

Sabonis totaled 18 points (7-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 20 rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 107-77 victory over the Nets.

He nearly collected his 27th triple-double of the season, but instead, Sabonis had to settle for his NBA-leading 74th double-double, 10 ahead of second-place Nikola Jokic. Sabonis also extended his record double-double streak to 61, the longest the league has seen in the modern era, and he's one of only four players in NBA history to put together a streak of 60-plus games. Hall of Famers Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor and Walt Bellamy accomplished the feat in the 1960s.

Bamba (illness) scored three points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and added seven rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 15 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime victory over the Spurs.

Bamba was back in action for Philadelphia after missing the previous three games with an illness. His return coincided with Joel Embiid being held out of Sunday's contest, after Embiid had played in each of the previous three games following a 29-game absence while he recovered from meniscus surgery. With Embiid expected back for the 76ers' next game Tuesday versus the Pistons and Paul Reed likely to serve as his top backup, Bamba could soon find himself outside of the team's rotation.

Wembanyama registered 33 points (11-20 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 18 rebounds, six assists and seven blocks over 43 minutes during Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime loss to Philadelphia.

The double-double was his 42nd of the season, tying the rookie for eighth in the league with Bam Adebayo, Jalen Duren and Tyrese Haliburton. Wembanyama has missed three of the last 16 games due to ankle trouble, but when he's been on the court, he's been dominant and has averaged 23.8 points, 12.5 boards, 5.5 assists, 4.0 blocks, 2.2 threes and 1.2 steals.

Reed ended with 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 133-126 double-overtime victory over San Antonio.

It's the seventh double-double of the season for Reed but his first since March 8, while the five assists tied his season high -- a mark he also reached Saturday. The fourth-year center is seeing his usage rise again with Tobias Harris (knee) now missing from the frontcourt along with Joel Embiid (knee), and in the three games Harris has sat out, Reed has averaged 7.3 points, 6.3 boards, 3.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 23.0 minutes per contest.

Gobert produced 18 points (9-13 FG), 16 rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 victory over the Lakers.

Gobert's 51 double-doubles put him squarely in fifth place in the category, ahead of elites like Luka Doncic and Bam Adebayo. Over 72 games, Gobert has averaged 13.7 points, 12.8 rebounds, 2.1 blocked shots and 1.3 assists.

Reid chipped in 31 points (12-16 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 35 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 victory over the Lakers.

Reid has effectively softened the blow of Karl-Anthony Towns' (knee) extended absence. If Towns rejoins the team for the playoffs as expected, it will be interesting to see if coach Chris Finch goes with a trio of Towns, Reid and Rudy Gobert alongside Mike Conley and Anthony Edwards. Reid has certainly displayed his ability to stretch the floor, averaging 5.1 three-point attempts per game with a conversion rate of 41.8 percent.

Hayes closed with 19 points (8-9 FG, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds, one block and five steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 loss to Minnesota.

Hayes filled in nicely after Anthony Davis (eye) headed to the locker room. Hayes' 19 points marked a season-high total as well as his second consecutive double-double. Although he only averages 12.4 minutes per game, Hayes has appeared in 67 games for the Lakers and should be on the team's postseason roster.
