Jerome registered 23 points (7-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and three steals over 25 minutes during the Grizzlies' 123-120 loss to the Clippers on Saturday.

Jerome scored 10 of his team-high 23 points in the fourth quarter, and he was effective in his limited playing time as he led the Grizzlies in points, assists and steals during Saturday's close loss. His 25 minutes were actually his most in a game this season, as he's had his playing time heavily monitored while managing a right calf injury that cost him the first half of the 2025-26 regular season. Jerome is averaging 19.4 points, 5.4 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals over 21.6 minutes per game this season.

Jackson finished Saturday's 123-120 win over the Grizzlies with 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two steals and one block over 25 minutes.

Jackson's 25 minutes off the bench were his most in a game since Feb. 2, and he took advantage of the additional playing time by leading the Clippers in rebounds while recording his seventh double-double of the season. He started in place of Brook Lopez at the start of the second half, and Jackson ended up seeing most of his playing time come over the final two frames of Saturday's game. With Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot) out for the rest of the season, Jackson figures to be the top big man off the bench for the rest of the 2025-26 campaign.

Garland logged 21 points (8-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six assists and four rebounds over 26 minutes during the Clippers' 123-120 win over the Grizzlies on Saturday.

Garland made his first start as a member of the Clippers on Saturday after coming off the bench in each of his first two outings with his new team. He helped the Clippers close things out with 11 points in the fourth quarter and finished tied with Bennedict Mathurin as the team's second-leading scorer behind Kawhi Leonard (28 points). Garland has yet to crack 30 minutes since joining the Clippers and will likely have his playing time monitored as he continues to manage a left toe injury.

Leonard logged 28 points (8-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 12-14 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals across 28 minutes during Saturday's 123-120 win over the Grizzlies.

After dropping 30 points in 37 minutes during Friday's loss to the Spurs, Leonard put together another productive outing Saturday. While the star forward got to the charity stripe often and was efficient from the field, he did struggle from beyond the arc and has shot just 1-for-9 from downtown in his last two outings. On a more positive note, Leonard tallied multiple steals for the third time in the last four games and has at least one swipe in each of his last six appearances.

Mathurin posted 21 points (6-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-9 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during the Clippers' 123-120 win over the Grizzlies on Saturday.

Mathurin's struggles from beyond the arc continued Saturday, and he's now gone 1-for-18 from three-point range over his last six outings. However, the fourth-year pro more than made up for it at the charity stripe and also finished as the Clippers' second-leading rebounder en route to his second double-double of the season. Since being acquired by the Clippers from the Pacers in early February, Mathurin has averaged 18.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.2 steals over 29.3 minutes per game.

Antetokounmpo supplied 27 points (9-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 9-15 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and four steals across 27 minutes during Saturday's 113-99 win over the Jazz

Antetokounmpo turned in an efficient performance from the field en route to a game-high 27 points, and he has reached the 20-point threshold in back-to-back outings. However, the two-time MVP struggled from the charity stripe yet again, and he has shot 13-for-23 from the free-throw line in his last two games. On a more positive note, he set a season high in steals and was one of three Bucks players to dish out at least eight assists. Antetokounmpo is still on a minutes restriction, and he has averaged 23.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.7 steals across 26.0 minutes per tilt in three March appearances following a 15-game absence due to a calf strain.

Randle ended with 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and two steals over 26 minutes during Saturday's 119-92 loss to Orlando.

The veteran forward came up one board short of his 16th double-double of the season. Randle has pulled down at least eight rebounds in seven of the last 12 games, averaging 18.0 points, 7.5 boards, 4.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 threes over that span.

Edwards totaled 34 points (8-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 13-14 FT), three rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals in 32 minutes during Saturday's 119-92 loss to the Magic.

The 34 points led all scorers on the afternoon, but only three other Timberwolves even scored in double digits. Edwards has drained multiple three-pointers in 10 straight games, averaging 29.5 points, 4.8 boards, 4.3 threes, 3.4 assists, 1.9 steals and 0.9 blocks over that blistering stretch.

Banchero supplied 25 points (10-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 15 rebounds and three assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 119-92 win over the Timberwolves.

It was Banchero's 21st double-double of the season and fifth in the last eight games. He led all players in rebounds, finishing one board shy of tying his season high. Over the last eight games, the fourth-year forward is averaging 24.9 points, 10.3 boards, 6.0 assists and 0.8 threes.

Bane accumulated 30 points (10-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 10-10 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-92 win over the Timberwolves.

It's the fifth time in the last 10 games that Bane has delivered at least 30 points. The 27-year-old wing has been on fire over that stretch, during which he has averaged 25.6 points, 3.9 boards, 3.9 assists, 3.3 threes and 1.3 steals while shooting 58.1 percent from the floor and 50.8 percent from beyond the arc.
