Jaylon Tyson SF | CLE
Cavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Enjoys efficient shooting night
Tyson contributed 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 0-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 124-91 victory over the Clippers.
Tyson finished second amongst the Cleveland starters with 17 points, and he needed only 10 attempts from the field to do so. He's been on a heater from beyond the arc of late, as he's now 7-for-7 from deep over his last two appearances. However, it'll be interesting to keep an eye on whether Tyson's opportunities dwindle once James Harden, recently acquired from the Clippers, is ready to make his team debut.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Post strong all-around night
Mitchell amassed 29 points (10-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and four steals over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-91 victory over the Clippers.
Mitchell served as one of Cleveland's key producers in Wednesday's win, pacing the team in points, assists and steals. The 29-year-old has now dished out nine assists in back-to-back games and has recorded at least one steal in 21 consecutive appearances in addition to his consistent support as a scorer (26.3 points per game over this span).

Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Just misses triple-double Wednesday
Barnes notched 22 points (8-11 FG, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 128-126 loss to the Timberwolves.
The fifth-year star came up a couple dimes short of his third triple-double of the season and the ninth of his career. Barnes still produced his 23rd double-double of 2025-26 -- just three shy of his career high -- and five of them have come in the last 11 games, a stretch in which he's averaging 19.8 points, 8.6 boards, 6.8 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.1 steals while shooting 51.2 percent from the floor.

The 28-year-old guard led the Raptors in scoring on the night as he delivered at least 25 points for the third time in the last four games. Ingram has scored in double digits in 12 straight contests since returning to the lineup from a minor thumb issue, averaging 22.4 points, 5.7 boards, 3.9 assists, 2.0 threes, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks during that span.

Timberwolves' Jaden McDaniels: Strikes for 19 in Wednesday's win

The 25-year-old forward saw his streak of games with at least 20 points end at three. McDaniels remains locked in from long distance, draining at least one three-pointer in 12 straight contests and averaging 16.9 points, 4.2 boards, 3.7 assists, 2.4 threes and 1.2 blocks over that stretch while shooting 53.2 percent from the floor and a sizzling 56.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Bones Hyland PG | MIN
Timberwolves' Bones Hyland: Pops for 20 off bench in win
Hyland finished with 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 26 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 128-126 victory over the Raptors.
It was Hyland's best scoring effort since Jan. 13, when he dropped a season-high 23 points on the Bucks. However, the fifth-year guard scored in double digits only once during the 10 games in between those ceiling performances, making him little more than a DFS dart throw for fantasy purposes. Over that 12-game stretch, Hyland is averaging 8.3 points, 2.9 assists, 2.5 boards, 1.6 threes and 0.8 steals in 16.6 minutes from the second unit.

It was the fourth straight game in which Gobert had pulled down double-digit boards, and the double-double was his 23rd of the season, tying him for eighth in the NBA. The veteran center also remained busy on defense, and over his last 15 games Gobert has averaged 9.9 points, 12.1 rebounds, 1.8 blocks, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals while shooting 69.0 percent from the floor.

The journeyman wing has caught fire from long range in February. Shamet has drained at least four three-pointers in three straight games, a stretch in which he's averaging 17.7 points, 4.7 threes, 1.7 boards and 1.7 assists in 27.7 minutes a contest from the second unit while shooting 52.8 percent from the floor and 53.8 percent (14-for-26) from beyond the arc.
