    Clippers' Jordan Miller: Team-high seven assists in win

    Miller notched 14 points (6-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 153-128 win over the Timberwolves.

    Miller handed out a team-high seven dimes Wednesday, and he's settling in as the primary backup point guard behind Darius Garland. Over his last six appearances, Miller has averaged 9.5 points, 3.0 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 0.7 steals in 26.2 minutes per game.

  • Bones Hyland PG | MIN

    Timberwolves' Bones Hyland: Chips in 10 points off bench

    Hyland notched 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four assists and one steal over 16 minutes during Wednesday's 153-128 loss to the Clippers.

    With the Timberwolves fully healthy, there isn't a clear path to fantasy relevance for Hyland, but he is capable of putting up strong numbers when he gets hot. The combo guard has averaged 9.5 points, 2.2 assists, 0.8 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers in 15.9 minutes per contest in his last six games, shooting 42.3 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Kon Knueppel SF | CHA

    Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Stays hot for Charlotte

    Knueppel totaled 24 points (7-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds and three assists across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 117-109 win over Sacramento.

    Knueppel continues to bolster his case in the Rookie of the Year Award race. The Hornets improved to 34-33 with this win, and Knueppel has been hot with 19.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 4.0 three-pointers over his last eight games.

  • Kings' Precious Achiuwa: Scores 14 points in loss

    Achiuwa racked up 14 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 117-109 loss to Charlotte.

    Achiuwa put together a well-rounded line in this loss and continues to take advantage of increased playing time on a shorthanded Kings squad. Over his last seven games, he's been on fire with 16.7 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.1 blocks in 32.5 minutes per contest.

  • Timberwolves' Donte DiVincenzo: Continues to struggle to score

    DiVincenzo contributed six points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 153-128 loss to the Clippers.

    A quiet stretch continued for DiVincenzo, who has scored in single digits in four of his last five games. During this stretch, the combo guard has averaged 7.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 28.3 minutes per game while shooting only 35.3 percent from the field.

  • Nuggets' Christian Braun: Puts up 19 points in rout

    Braun racked up 19 points (8-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 129-93 win over Houston.

    After missing a big chunk of the year with an ankle sprain, Braun is finally starting to gain a rhythm. The swingman has averaged 13.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.4 three-pointers in 35.7 minutes per game across his last seven contests, shooting 50.7 percent from the floor during this period.

  • Pascal Siakam PF | IND

    Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Ruled out for Thursday

    Siakam (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Suns.

    No surprise here, as Siakam was originally considered doubtful for this contest. It'll be a second straight absence due to a knee strain, and while it wouldn't be surprising if he missed a handful of games, the Pacers are treating him as day-to-day. With this news, Jarace Walker, Kobe Brown and Micah Potter could see additional minutes Thursday.

  • Pacers' Quenton Jackson: Downgraded to out

    Jackson is out for Thursday's game against Phoenix due to right calf soreness.

    Jackson can be considered day-to-day, with a quick turnaround on the horizon Friday versus the Knicks. With several Pacers still up in the air for Thursday, Ben Sheppard is lined up for a significant role in the backcourt against the Suns.

  • Jevon Carter PG | ORL

    Magic's Jevon Carter: Sees 20 minutes in win

    Carter finished with nine points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists, one block and one steal over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 128-122 victory over the Cavaliers.

    With Anthony Black (abdomen) and Franz Wagner (ankle) still sidelined, Carter continues to soak up additional minutes in the second unit. Over his last seven games, he's averaging 23.5 minutes with 7.7 points, 3.4 assists and 2.0 rebounds.

  • Nikola Jokic C | DEN

    Nuggets' Nikola Jokic: Tallies another triple-double

    Jokic closed Wednesday's 129-93 victory over the Rockets with 16 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, 13 assists, one block and five steals in 30 minutes.

    That's now 25 triple-doubles in just 50 games on the year for the superstar big man. Jokic has recorded three triple-doubles in his past four outings, during which he has averaged a robust 28.5 points, 11.5 rebounds, 11.0 assists and 2.0 steals in 34.8 minutes per game while shooting 62.7 percent from the floor.
