Ball notched 29 points (9-19 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 29 minutes during Saturday's 124-101 win over Memphis.

Ball has been the barometer for the Hornets in recent weeks, and he's been delivering outstanding performances with remarkable consistency. The star floor general has scored at least 29 points in three of his last five appearances, and he's also carrying a streak of productivity. He has scored at least 15 points in all but one of his 16 outings since the All-Star break while also shooting 37.5 percent from three-point range.

Olynyk closed with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) across four minutes during Saturday's 134-119 victory over the Pacers.

Olynyk's season of disappointment continued, moving into the rotation for just the third time in the past 10 games. While he does provide San Antonio with some insurance at the center position, his role is basically non-existent at this point.

Biyombo had four points (2-2 FG) and one rebound in four minutes during Saturday's 134-119 victory over Indiana.

Biyombo touched the floor for just the second time in the past seven games, albeit for four minutes during garbage time. At this point in his career, Biyombo would need to garner extensive playing time to have any chance of putting up fantasy value. Even those in deeper formats can safely ignore him.

Da Silva notched 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds across 21 minutes during Saturday's 105-104 loss to the Lakers.

Da Silva continues play a significant role for the Magic amid the ongoing absence of Franz Wagner (ankle). He's started eight straight games, during which da Silva has averaged a serviceable 12.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 29.6 minutes per contest.

Nesmith posted five points (2-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two rebounds over 25 minutes during Saturday's 134-119 loss to San Antonio.

Nesmith couldn't get it going Saturday, bringing to an end what had been a five-game stretch of double-digit scoring. Nesmith's production has been up and down all season, making him a hard player to trust. In 42 appearances, he has averaged 13.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.2 three-pointers, leaving him outside the top 200 in standard leagues. Given the uncertainty regarding Indiana's rotation, Nesmith should be utilized as a stream option only.

Hayes finished Saturday's 105-104 victory over the Magic with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-6 FT), seven rebounds and three blocks across 19 minutes.

Despite fairly lackluster play from Deandre Ayton overall recently, Hayes doesn't appear to be making a serious case for more playing time. Hayes has averaged 4.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.0 block in 16.7 minutes per contest in his last six games, shooting a weak 40.0 percent from the field during this span.

Kennard supplied 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt) and three rebounds across 20 minutes during Saturday's 105-104 victory over the Magic.

Kennard broke out of a brief scoring slump, as he entered Saturday having been held to 11 total points across his prior five games. He came through when it mattered most against Orlando, draining the game-winning triple with less than a second left on the clock. The veteran sharpshooter is struggling to maintain much fantasy appeal, averaging 6.8 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.3 three-pointers in 20.4 minutes per contest in his last nine games.

Reaves (hip) closed with 26 points (10-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 40 minutes during Saturday's 105-104 win over the Magic.

Reaves played through left hip soreness Saturday and appeared to be no worse for wear with a strong all-around performance. The star guard continues to return early-round fantasy value in all formats, averaging 23.9 points, 6.0 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in a whopping 40.0 minutes per tilt in his last eight games.

Siakam (knee) supplied 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 134-119 loss to San Antonio.

Siakam returned from a six-game absence due to a sprained right knee and didn't face any limitations, after he had averaged 30.0 minutes in his prior four appearances since the All-Star break. With the Pacers sitting on a 15-56 record and holding a top-four protected pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, the team's motivations for the rest of the season are clear. As such, expect Siakam's availability to be somewhat sporadic the rest of the way, even if the Pacers don't shut him down outright.

Walker amassed 21 points (8-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 134-119 loss to San Antonio.

Walker continues to play starter-level minutes, unlike the majority of his teammates. The 21 points were the most he has scored in his past 11 games, a welcome sight for anyone considering him a drop. Given his role feels secure, Walker should be held onto in most leagues, providing managers with a solid plug-and-play option.
