Filipowski recorded 25 points (9-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one block in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 loss to the Nuggets.

It was Filipowski's second straight double-double, and his 12th of the season, one short of the mark he set as a rookie in 2024-25. The second-round pick out of Duke has scored 20-plus points in four straight games, averaging 24.0 points, 9.8 boards, 4.0 assists, 2.5 threes and 1.3 steals during that surge while shooting 63.8 percent from the floor and 43.5 percent (10-for-23) from long distance.

Durant notched 19 points (7-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and one block in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 win over Milwaukee.

Durant ended just one assist away from recording what would've been his second double-double over the last four games, but it's worth noting the veteran forward seems to be embracing a bigger role as a playmaker. Durant has dished out at least eight assists in four of his last five games, averaging 24.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 8.2 dimes per game over that stretch. An uptick in assists would be huge for Durant, as he's already a productive, proven scorer who shoots at a high clip.

Sensabaugh contributed 28 points (11-18 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 loss to the Nuggets.

The 28 points led the Jazz on the night. Sensabaugh has scored more than 20 points in eight of 10 games since moving back into the starting five March 9, averaging 25.3 points, 3.8 boards, 3.6 threes, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals over that span while shooting 53.7 percent from the floor and 47.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Brown ended with 11 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals in 27 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 130-117 win over Utah.

The four steals tied his season high, while the five combined stocks established a new high-water mark in 2025-26 for Brown. The 29-year-old guard has been a useful part of the second unit in his second tour with the Nuggets, scoring in double digits in six of the last 10 games while averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 boards, 1.5 assists, 1.3 threes and 0.8 steals over 21.6 minutes.

Sengun closed with 25 points (9-13 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 119-113 win over Milwaukee.

Sengun briefly left Wednesday's game in the fourth quarter but returned quickly and was remarkably efficient. He delivered one of his best performances of the season in terms of his shooting numbers, but he also ended just one board shy of a double-double while filling the stat sheet. Sengun has been putting up excellent numbers since returning from a two-game absence in mid-March due to a back injury, averaging 23.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks per game over his last nine appearances.

Braun recorded 18 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 victory over the Jazz.

It was Braun's best scoring effort since March 18, when he dropped 26 points on the Grizzlies. The fourth-year wing has also seen his defensive contributions evaporate of late. He hasn't produced a steal since that contest, averaging 12.4 points, 3.9 boards, 1.9 assists and 0.9 threes over the last seven games.

Johnson ended with 19 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 win over the Jazz.

The veteran forward fell one board short of his second double-double of the season, with the first coming way back on Dec. 18 against the Magic. Johnson has scored in double digits in 10 of the last 12 games, averaging 14.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.8 threes, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals over that span while shooting 54.4 percent from the floor and 48.6 percent from downtown.

Jokic closed with 15 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 17 rebounds and 12 assists in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 win over the Jazz.

It was the 32nd triple-double of the season for Jokic, two short of the career high he established in 2024-25, and his fifth in the last six games. During that surge, the veteran center has averaged 23.5 points, 16.5 boards, 13.7 assists, 1.5 threes and 0.8 steals while shooting 55.6 percent from the floor.

Murray logged 37 points (12-26 FG, 10-16 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 victory over the Jazz.

The 37 points led all scorers on the night, and his 10 three-pointers represented Murray's best performance from beyond the arc since he went 10-for-11 against the Pacers on Dec. 3. The 29-year-old guard has scored at least 20 points in seven straight games, averaging 30.7 points, 7.0 assists, 5.0 threes, 4.4 boards and 1.3 combined steals and blocks over that stretch while shooting 52.9 percent from the floor and 51.5 percent from long range.

DeRozan ended Wednesday's 123-115 win over the Raptors with 28 points (7-18 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 12-12 FT), one rebound and four assists over 35 minutes.

DeRozan, who was returning from a one-game absence due to a hamstring problem, had an excellent performance against his former team, and he was particularly active at the charity stripe after draining all 12 of his attempts. The Kings don't have anything to play for in the final days of the regular season, but it's worth noting that DeRozan remains a reliable scoring option for Sacramento. He's averaging 19.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game since the start of March.
