Sarr accumulated 28 points (12-19 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 150-129 loss to the Heat.

Sarr operated under a minutes restriction once again and was limited to 20 minutes. However, the Frenchman was a dominant offensive force while he was out there, finishing with 28 points while missing just seven of his 19 shots from the floor. That scoring output was Sarr's best mark since Jan. 27, when he scored 29 points and added 12 rebounds in a win over the Trail Blazers. Sarr has made just two appearances since the All-Star break after recovering from a hamstring injury, and the Wizards are likely to monitor his workload in the final weeks of the regular season since Washington doesn't have a realistic chance of reaching the Play-In Tournament.

Riley closed Tuesday's 150-129 loss to the Heat with 22 points (6-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 40 minutes.

Riley was one of the few standout performers for the Wizards in a game that will go down in history for Bam Adebayo's 83-point performance. Riley notched his second-best scoring mark of the campaign and reached the 20-point mark for the first time since Feb. 7, when he posted a season-best 27 points in a loss to the Nets. He's been on a tear since the All-Star break, scoring in double digits in nine of his last 11 appearances.

Doncic produced 31 points (11-24 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, 11 assists, two steals and one block in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 120-106 victory over Minnesota.

Doncic teamed up with Austin Reaves for a combined 62 points on a night the Lakers were without LeBron James (hip/foot). Doncic converted on just 33.3 percent of his triples, but his overall volume on the offensive end helped him to a third straight game of 30-plus points. The 27-year-old was also able to secure his first double-double since Jan. 30 with the help of an impressive all-around performance, which comes after he struggled in the assist column in his previous two outings.

Fontecchio closed with 18 points (6-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 150-129 win over Washington.

Fontecchio made his return to the rotation after a three-game absence and took full advantage of the extended opportunity he saw due to the absences of Tyler Herro (quadriceps), Norman Powell (groin) and Andrew Wiggins (toe). Fontecchio's 22 minutes were the most he's played since Feb. 11, but the inconsistent and limited role doesn't bode well for his fantasy prospects moving forward.

Larsson provided 10 points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 150-129 victory over Washington.

Larsson scored in double digits for the fourth consecutive outing and has achieved this mark in eight of his 10 appearances since the All-Star break. He's been making the most of the uptick in playing time he's enjoyed of late whenever Tyler Herro (quadriceps) and/or Norman Powell (groin) have been sidelined.

Mitchell had 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 150-129 win over the Wizards.

Mitchell has shown the ability to stuff the stat sheet, but his fantasy upside has decreased a bit, even though he remains a regular starter for the Heat. Mitchell has scored in double digits in just three of his nine appearances since the All-Star break, but two of those have come in his last three games.

Williams accumulated six points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 10 rebounds and four blocks across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 103-101 loss to the Hornets.

Williams played at least 20 minutes for the fourth straight game, during which time he has been a top-90 player in standard nine-category leagues. With averages of 10.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.4 combined steals and blocks, Williams should at least be on the radar for anyone seeking elite per-minute big-man numbers.

Thybulle finished Tuesday's 103-101 loss to the Hornets with three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound and two steals over 11 minutes.

Thybulle continues to produce on the defensive end despite playing limited minutes off the bench. Since making his return from a long-term knee injury, Thybulle has recorded at least one steal in all but one of his games. In 10 appearances, he has averaged 1.6 steals in 11.7 minutes per game, putting him firmly on the streaming radar as a specialist.

Green ended with three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 103-101 win over Portland.

Green scored no more than six points for the sixth time in the past seven games, continuing to offer very little in terms of tangible production. Although he can be an impactful player, particularly on the defensive end, his efforts rarely translate into fantasy value. In 42 games thus far, he has averaged just 5.0 points and 1.1 three-pointers in 16.8 minutes per contest, leaving him well outside the top-300 players.

Diabate produced seven points (3-8 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 103-101 victory over Portland.

Diabate continues to deliver important contributions on both ends of the floor. While his scoring remains modest, to say the least, his ability to rebound at a high rate while adding consistent defensive numbers makes him a clear must-roster player. In seven appearances over the past two weeks, he has put up top-75 value in standard leagues, averaging 8.3 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.0 combined steals and blocks.
