Sexton accumulated 26 points (6-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 11-13 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals across 30 minutes during Saturday's 125-124 loss to the Grizzlies.

Sexton scored at least 20 points for the third time in his past four games, continuing to provide the Bulls with a nice offensive punch off the bench. Although his overall appeal is somewhat limited, Sexton has been doing more than enough to be rostered in most leagues. In 11 games over the past month, he has averaged 20.2 points, 1.2 steals and 2.8 three-pointers in 25.4 minutes per game, good enough for top-65 value in standard formats.

Giddey recorded 18 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, 10 assists, three blocks and two steals across 35 minutes in Saturday's 125-124 loss to the Grizzlies.

After scoring just five points on 1-of-11 shooting from the field in a loss to Oklahoma City during the front end of this back-to-back set, Giddey bounced back against the injury-depleted Grizzlies. The 23-year-old point guard finished as Chicago's fourth-leading scorer and racked up his sixth triple-double on the month. He led all players in rebounds and assists, dishing out double-digit dimes for a fifth straight game. Giddey was also impactful on the defensive end, chipping in a career-high-tying three blocks en route to a season-high five combined steals-plus-blocks.

Jarreau exited Saturday's 125-124 win over the Bulls in the fourth quarter and didn't return due to right elbow soreness. He finished with 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT), three assists, two rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 19 minutes.

Jarreau checked out with 6:18 remaining in the final quarter and was deemed doubtful to return. The Grizzlies will likely send Jarreau in for further evaluation, but for the time being, his availability for Monday's game against the Suns is in question.

Jarreau is doubtful to return to Saturday's game against the Bulls due to right elbow soreness.

Jarreau checked out of Saturday's contest with 6:18 remaining in the fourth and is not expected to return. If he doesn't check back in, he'll finish with 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT), three assists, two rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 19 minutes.

Jeffries posted 15 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 27 minutes during the Kings' 123-113 loss to the Hawks on Saturday.

Jeffries gave the Kings a bit of a spark with 12 points in the second half (including seven in the fourth quarter) to lead the bench in scoring and the team with a plus-eight point differential. It was his second outing with Sacramento after signing a 10-day hardship contract Thursday, and the Tulsa product should continue to see meaningful playing time off the bench given the plethora of Kings players sidelined due to injury.

DeRozan finished Saturday's 123-113 loss to Atlanta with 22 points (9-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes.

Saturday marked the second game in a row that DeRozan led the Kings in scoring while connecting on 50.0 percent of his field-goal attempts. The veteran forward is averaging 18.5 points per game this season, which is his lowest mark since the 2012-13 season with the Raptors (18.1 points per game), though he's connecting on 49.5 percent of his field-goal attempts.

Raynaud logged 18 points (5-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds and one steal over 30 minutes during the Kings' 123-113 loss to the Hawks on Saturday.

Raynaud scored seven of his 18 points in the first quarter and finished as the Kings' second-leading scorer behind DeMar DeRozan (22 points) while posting his 17th double-double of the season. It was the fourth time this season that Raynaud connected on at least two threes, with three of those games occurring within his last six outings. The rookie second-rounder has averaged 18.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 blocks over 33.1 minutes per game since March 1. Raynaud is establishing himself as a long-term piece for the Kings, which might give the franchise something to think about when it comes to the future of Domantas Sabonis (knee).

Landale posted 19 points (7-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists and two blocks over 34 minutes during Atlanta's 123-113 win over Sacramento on Saturday.

With Onyeka Okongwu (finger) sidelined, Landale was moved into Atlanta's starting lineup for the first time since his team debut Feb. 5. Landale took advantage of the opportunity, leading the Hawks in both rebounds and blocks while finishing as the team's fourth-leading scorer. The fifth-year pro has proven that he can put together productive stat lines when operating in an expanded role, though his ceiling would take a substantial hit if Okongwu is cleared to play against the Celtics on Monday.

Johnson posted 26 points (11-22 FG, 4-1 3Pt), 10 assists, five rebounds and one steal over 37 minutes during the Hawks' 123-113 win over the Kings on Saturday.

Johnson helped Atlanta secure the victory with 11 points in the fourth quarter. He led the Hawks in assists Saturday and finished as the team's second-leading scorer behind Nickeil Alexander-Walker (27 points). Johnson has logged three double-doubles over his last five outings and is up to 44 on the season, which is third most in the Association behind Karl-Anthony Towns (51) and Nikola Jokic (50). Johnson has averaged 22.6 points, 8.8 assists, 8.3 rebounds, 2.3 threes and 1.2 steals over 36.1 minutes per game since March 1.

Embiid produced 29 points (8-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 10-13 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 36 minutes during Saturday's 118-114 victory over Charlotte.

Although the superstar big man's lack of availability has been frustrating in 2025-26, there's no denying his impact on the court when healthy. Embiid has averaged 31.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.0 blocks in 32.9 minutes per tilt in his last 10 appearances, shooting 52.5 percent from the field.
