  • Jay Huff C | IND

    Pacers' Jay Huff: Blocks three shots in loss

    Huff supplied 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 26 minutes during Monday's 135-119 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Huff has strung together three straight impressive performances since being elevated to the starting lineup, averaging 13.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 3.7 blocks and 3.0 threes on a blistering 52.9 percent clip in that span. Huff figures to hold on to the starting spot for the foreseeable future and has shown he is capable of elite rim protection and three-point shooting.

  • Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Plays 12 minutes in win

    Bryant notched six points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in 12 minutes during Monday's 135-119 victory over the Pacers.

    Bryant is buried on the depth chart behind the likes of Jarrett Allen (finger) and Evan Mobley, but with Allen slated to miss at least a week due to injury, Bryant may see meaningful minutes on the court temporarily. Mobley will slide to the center spot, but Bryant should continue to back Mobley up until Allen is available to return.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Puts up 22 points in start

    Bagley notched 22 points (11-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes in Monday's 129-126 win over Milwaukee.

    Bagley had missed three consecutive games due to a right hip contusion before being cleared in advance of Friday's 119-86 loss to the Pacers. Though he didn't play in that game in a coach's decision, Bagley moved from outside the rotation to into the starting five Monday while top center Alex Sarr (adductor) was sidelined. Bagley didn't disappoint in Sarr's stead, and in two starts this season, the 26-year-old has averaged 17.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals in 30.0 minutes. Sarr has already been ruled out for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia, so Bagley will once again profile as a strong streaming option for those looking for aid in the points, rebounds and field-goal percentage categories.

  • Mavericks' Anthony Davis: Double-doubles in win

    Davis supplied 32 points (13-23 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 32 minutes during Monday's 131-121 win over the Nuggets.

    After sitting out Saturday's win over the Clippers, Davis returned to the hardwood and put together a dominant showing. The star big man led all players in scoring and grabbed a team-high 13 boards en route to his fifth double-double across seven regular-season games. He has also swatted multiple shots in back-to-back games and is averaging 1.6 blocks per game thus far.

  • Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe: Disappointing season continues

    Sharpe chipped in six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 15 minutes during Monday's 116-103 win over the Hornets.

    Sharpe hasn't made much of an impact this season, failing to take any real strides on either end of the court. Through 19 games, he has averaged just 6.5 points and 5.3 rebounds in 16.1 minutes per contest. As long as Nic Claxton is healthy, there is no reason to be holding Sharpe outside of deeper formats.

  • Nets' Nic Claxton: Back on track in victory

    Claxton recorded 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 116-103 victory over the Hornets.

    Claxton got back on track following a few sub-par performances, recording his fifth double-double of the season. Despite some ups and downs, it's been a relatively strong season for Claxton, who's averaging 13.6 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.3 blocks in 30.0 minutes per game. Aside from the modest rebounding numbers, managers have basically got what they bargained for when drafting Claxton.

  • Rockets' Alperen Sengun: Shines in loss

    Sengun racked up 31 points (12-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, 14 assists, five blocks and two steals in 38 minutes during Monday's 133-125 loss to Utah.

    Sengun reached the 30-point threshold in an efficient manner, combining with Kevin Durant for 63 of the team's 125 points. Sengun was also impressive as a distributor and at the rim, tallying double-digit assists for the first time in 18 appearances this season while racking up a season-high five blocks.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Triple-doubles in defeat

    Jokic notched 29 points (10-24 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 20 rebounds, 13 assists, two blocks and one steal across 37 minutes in Monday's 131-121 loss to the Mavericks.

    Jokic didn't deliver his most efficient shooting performance, though he still led the Nuggets in scoring. The three-time MVP has posted 20-plus points in three straight games, shooting 58.5 percent from the field during that span. He also secured game-high marks in rebounds and assists en route to his 11th triple-double across 20 regular-season outings thus far.

  • Ivica Zubac C | IND

    Clippers' Ivica Zubac: Posts another double-double

    Zubac tallied 16 points (7-13 FG, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block over 31 minutes during the Clippers' 140-123 loss to the Heat on Monday.

    Zubac finished Monday's game as the Clippers' leading rebounder and second in scoring behind Kawhi Leonard (36 points). Zubac is up to 13 double-doubles through 21 regular-season games, which is tied with Josh Giddey for third most in the NBA behind Nikola Jokic (18) and Karl-Anthony Towns (15). Zubac is averaging 16.3 points, 11.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.0 blocks over 32.4 minutes per game to open the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Bulls' Nikola Vucevic: Double-doubles with five dimes

    Vucevic provided 20 points (9-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Monday's 125-120 loss to the Magic.

    Vucevic was held to 16 points on 5-for-14 shooting his previous game, so it was nice to see him come through with an efficient 20-point outing. The big man did bang knees with Wendell Carter early in the third quarter, and while Vucevic was able to play through it, that's the sort of injury that could swell up overnight. With a matchup against the 4-16 Nets on Wednesday, it wouldn't be shocking to see Vucevic get hit with a random rest day.
