Sarr supplied 10 points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal across 16 minutes during Sunday's 119-118 win over Miami.

Sarr wasn't utilized much in the season finale with Tristan Vukcevic getting an extended look off the bench. As a rookie, Sarr ended up making 67 regular-season appearances, hitting 39.4 percent from the field and 67.9 percent from the line with averages of 13.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.7 steals, 1.5 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers in 27.1 minutes per contest. He finished just outside the top-150 in nine-category formats on a per-game basis.

Clingan ended with 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 25 minutes during Sunday's 109-81 victory over the Lakers.

Clingan was a highly-touted prospect coming out of college. While the big man was overmatched on offense at times, he did a good job as a rim protector while showing a clear improvement at the other end of the court compared to where it was when the season started. Clingan finishes his first year in The Association with averages of 6.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.6 blocks and 1.1 assists across 67 regular-season contests, including 37 starts. Clingan figures to be a long-term building block of the franchise, but the Trail Blazers will likely make some moves in the offseason to give him a more significant role ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

Bradley logged 14 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and five blocks in 27 minutes during Sunday's 126-118 double-overtime win over the Cavaliers.

Bradley swatted a career-high five shots and recorded his sixth double-double of his career. The Pacers rested several key players in the season finale, and the regular rotation players who did suit up saw limited play. Despite this big performance, Bradley is not likely to be very involved in Indiana's postseason rotation.

Gobert recorded 19 points (8-16 FG, 3-5 FT), 18 rebounds, four blocks and one steal over 38 minutes during Sunday's 116-105 win over the Jazz.

The short-handed Jazz interior was no match for Gobert, who logged 38 minutes and held court in the paint for the duration of the game. The Timberwolves played their way out of the play-in tournament and will now face the Lakers. A scenario that should favor Gobert heavily. The Lakers' front line has been in flux since Anthony Davis' departure and is arguably the team's softest spot. Gobert finishes the regular season with averages of 12.0 points, 10.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 blocked shots over 72 games.

Kornet closed with 11 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, four blocks and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 93-86 win over the Hornets.

Kornet did a little bit of everything in the starting lineup in Sunday's regular-season finale, leading all Celtics in blocks while hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total and finishing as one of four players with a double-digit scoring mark. Kornet has tallied four or more blocks in three outings this season, posting at least 10 points and eight boards on six occasions.

Nurkic ended Sunday's 93-86 loss to Boston with 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 29 minutes.

Nurkic got the starting nod in Sunday's regular-season finale due to Mark Williams (foot) being sidelined, leading all players in rebounds and steals while finishing with a team-high-tying point total and coming up one board shy of a double-double. Nurkic hauled in at least nine rebounds in 19 outings this season, adding 10 or more points in 14 of those contests.

Carlson posted 26 points (10-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and two assists in 38 minutes during Sunday's 115-100 win over the Pelicans.

Carlson saw a significant role Sunday due to the team holding many rotational players out for the season finale and Jaylin Williams (ankle) going down with injury. In an expanded role, Carlson matched his career high in blocks while setting career-best marks in points and rebounds and logging his first double-double. Despite the impressive performance, Carlson will likely return to a minimal role as the team turns to postseason play.

Jokic closed with 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 126-111 win over Houston.

Sunday's performance was subpar by Jokic's standards, as the nightly triple-double threat played somewhat passively to stay fresh for the playoff run. The Rockets limited minutes for their starters, and Jokic did more than enough to keep Alperen Sengun in check while he was on the floor. Jokic finished the season as the third player in NBA history to average a triple-double. Over 69 games, he averaged 29.8 points, 12.8 rebounds, 10.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.6 blocks.

Zubac recorded 22 points (11-16 FG), 17 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 42 minutes during Sunday's 124-119 overtime victory over the Warriors.

Zubac notched his 59th double-double out of 79 appearances to put a bow on a breakout 2024-25 campaign. The veteran big man was a bankable fantasy option all year long, and he wraps up the regular season riding a 15-game double-double streak. During this period, Zubac averaged 19.1 points, 13.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.0 blocks in 33.4 minutes while shooting 64.2 percent from the field.

Kelley signed a second 10-day contract with the Pelicans on Sunday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Kelley made two appearances under his first 10-day deal, averaging 3.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 22.0 minutes. He'll be available for the regular-season finale against the Thunder on Sunday after signing another deal, but he's not in the starting lineup after starting Friday's 153-104 loss to Miami.
