  • Drake Powell SG | BKN

    Nets' Drake Powell: Goes invisible in loss

    Powell had no counting stats over eight minutes during Tuesday's 106-102 loss to the Suns.

    Ziaire Williams and Cam Thomas ended up playing the lion's share of the minutes at shooting guard Tuesday. Powell appears to have a tenuous hold on the starting role that he's had for the past eight games, during which the rookie first-rounder has averaged 7.1 points, 1.8 assists and 1.5 rebounds in 22.1 minutes per contest.

  • Saddiq Bey SF | NO

    Pelicans' Saddiq Bey: Terrific line in loss

    Bey had 16 points (4-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 104-95 loss to the Thunder.

    Considering he missed the entire 2024-25 season recovering from a torn ACL, Bey's emergence this campaign has been quite the story. Across 42 regular-season appearances, he's on pace to return ninth-round value in nine-category formats with 15.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

  • Isaiah Joe SG | OKC

    Thunder's Isaiah Joe: Solid showing in victory

    Joe totaled 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 104-95 victory over New Orleans.

    This was a strong line for Joe, but he continues to be a hit-or-miss fantasy asset off the Oklahoma City bench. Over his last seven outings, he's averaging 9.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.3 three-pointers. He may see a short-term boost in value, however, as Jalen Williams (hamstring) and Ajay Mitchell (abdominals) are currently sidelined.

  • Cole Anthony PG | PHO

    Bucks' Cole Anthony: Fares well off bench

    Anthony produced 10 points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and one assist over 14 minutes during Tuesday's 139-122 loss to the 76ers.

    With Giannis Antetokounmpo requesting a trade out of Milwaukee ahead of the deadline, the Bucks may pivot to become sellers. Anthony, who is on a one-year, $2.29 million deal, may be viewed as expendable if the franchise turns into a youth movement.

  • Ryan Dunn SF | PHO

    Suns' Ryan Dunn: Swipes four steals off bench

    Dunn registered nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and four steals in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 106-102 victory over the Nets.

    The four steals were one short of a season high for Dunn, whose 21 minutes were also his most since Jan. 7. Dunn hasn't scored in double figures since Nov. 16 and has seen single-digit minutes in two of his last four games, so he's not doing enough to warrant much attention in fantasy leagues.

  • OG Anunoby SF | NY

    Knicks' OG Anunoby: Notches 15 points in win

    Anunoby accumulated 15 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 103-87 win over the Kings.

    The Knicks are going to be shorthanded Wednesday night against Toronto, as Josh Hart (ankle) is questionable and Mitchell Robinson and Miles McBride are being held out for injury management. Despite averaging 32.8 minutes across 36 appearances, Anunoby is showing no signs of slowing down and may see increased usage Wednesday.

  • Rayan Rupert SG | MEM

    Trail Blazers' Rayan Rupert: Records five steals in loss

    Rupert amassed 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and five steals over 19 minutes during Tuesday's 115-111 loss to the Wizards.

    Rupert recorded a career-high five steals in the loss. This performance certainly has the look of an outlier, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't chase this line -- he's been limited to minutes in the teens for five straight games.

  • Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards: Available for Wednesday

    Edwards (foot) is available for Wednesday's game against Dallas.

    Edwards is set to return from a one-game absence after missing Monday's contest against the Warriors. It's clear that Edwards will have to manage this ongoing foot issue, so maintenance days could be common down the stretch. Mike Conley and Bones Hyland are likely to see decreased roles with Edwards back in action.

  • Leonard Miller SF | CHI

    Timberwolves' Leonard Miller: Available Wednesday

    Miller (back) is available for Wednesday's game against Dallas.

    Miller is available off the bench Wednesday, but it's unlikely he'll take the court in a meaningful way. The forward hasn't logged double-digit minutes since the Nov. 17 victory over the Mavericks.

  • Ausar Thompson SF | DET

    Pistons' Ausar Thompson: Grabs five steals

    Thompson totaled 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and five steals over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 109-107 win over the Nuggets.

    Thompson saw just 20 minutes of play for the second game in a row, which is below his average of 25.8 per game this year. He was very productive, however, racking up 14 points and four rebounds on high efficiency.
