Jaquez recorded 26 points (12-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and five assists across 26 minutes during Sunday's 143-117 victory over the Hawks.

Jaquez caught fire to close the season, pouring in 64 points and seven triples while shooting an efficient 28-for-40 from the field and 7-for-12 from beyond the arc over Miami's final three games. He'll look to carry that momentum into Tuesday's Play-In matchup against the Hornets.

Dunn totaled 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and one block over 25 minutes during Sunday's 135-103 victory over the Thunder.

Dunn exploded in his second straight start, scoring a season-best 20 points in a blowout road victory. He'll close the regular season averaging 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 19.4 minutes across 70 appearances (16 starts). Despite the strong showing Sunday, Dunn is likely to see a decrease in playing time in Tuesday's Play-In Tournament matchup against the Trail Blazers or beyond if the Suns advance deeper into the postseason.

Adebayo finished with 25 points (11-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 143-117 victory over the Hawks.

Adebayo came out firing for Miami, pouring in 17 points on just 10 shots in the first half while also making an impact on the glass. It marked his 35th double-double of the season, and he closed his 2025-26 campaign with double-doubles in 10 of his final 13 games.

Hield provided 31 points (12-18 FG, 7-11 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Sunday's 143-117 loss to Miami.

With Atlanta resting most of its starters, Hield saw a massive spike in usage and took advantage of the increased opportunity. He set season highs in points and three-pointers made, and he finished with a pristine effective-field-goal percentage of 86.1.

Newell provided 17 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block in 39 minutes during Sunday's 143-117 loss to the Heat.

Newell impressed in his second career start, matching his career high in points while pulling down a career-best 11 rebounds. It was just the second double-double of his career, and his second-best offensive rebounding effort of the season.

Kispert closed Sunday's 143-117 loss to the Heat with 21 points (7-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes.

Kispert played well in the spot start, and his usage rate spiked to 21.1 with Atlanta resting their usual starters. Kispert has been a solid addition to the Hawks with averages of 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.5 triples per game on 46/35/81 shooting splits.

Bouyea notched 27 points (12-23 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 0-2 FT), nine assists, five rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Sunday's 135-103 win over the Thunder.

With a slew of regulars inactive for the regular-season finale, Bouyea made his first start of the year and performed well, leading all scorers and finishing one assist shy of a double-double. It marked the guard's highest scoring output of the campaign and his 10th game in double figures. Despite the strong showing Sunday, Bouyea is unlikely to see significant playing time in Tuesday's Play-In Tournament matchup against the Trail Blazers or beyond if the Suns advance deeper into the postseason.

Tomlin had 26 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and five assists across 36 minutes during Sunday's 130-117 victory over the Wizards.

Tomlin led the charge for the undermanned Cavaliers, scoring a career-high 26 points. While this was obviously an outlier, Tomlin should be given at least some credit, having managed to carve out a regular spot in the rotation this season. In 34 games over the past three months, he has averaged 5.4 points and 2.9 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game.

Enaruna finished with 15 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists and three steals in 28 minutes during Sunday's 130-117 victory over the Wizards.

Enaruna took advantage of the fact that Cleveland was treating this game as a rest for its stars, scoring a career-high 15 points. Having played in just nine games all season, it's fair to say that this was nothing more than a silly-season special. Don't expect to see Enaruna on the floor too much, if at all, during the playoffs.

Proctor notched 22 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt), 11 rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Sunday's 130-117 win over the Wizards.

With Cleveland sitting basically its entire starting five, Proctor moved into a sizeable role, recording the first double-double of his young career. However, while this was a strong performance, it is unlikely we will see much of him during the playoffs, given that he has appeared in only 50 games thus far.
