Grizzlies' Toby Okani: Sees 41 minutes in start
Okani accumulated nine points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 41 minutes during Sunday's 131-115 loss to the Bucks.
Okani, who was signed to a 10-day contract Thursday, made his first career start against the Bucks and saw a massive workload for the injury-depleted Grizzlies. With the team evaluating several fringe rotation players, Okani could see a ton of reps to close out the regular season if Sunday was any indication.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Limited output in loss
Williams ended with five points (2-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 120-110 loss to the Suns.
Williams continues to be used sparingly by the Bulls, and he remains ice-cold shooting the ball. Over his last eight games, he's shooting 27.1 percent from the field for 4.3 points per contest.

Tre Jones PG | CHI
Bulls' Tre Jones: Strong line in loss
Jones ended Sunday's 120-110 loss to the Suns with 29 points (12-20 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists and two steals across 31 minutes.
With Josh Giddey (hamstring) sidelined, Jones soaked up a ton of usage Sunday and put up a monstrous fantasy line. He's been a sixth-round value over his last eight games with 18.8 points, 5.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.8 three-pointers.

Isaac Okoro SF | CHI
Bulls' Isaac Okoro: Strong line in loss
Okoro logged 10 points (5-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 36 minutes during Sunday's 120-110 loss to the Suns.
Okoro put together a solid all-around fantasy line in the loss. He's trending up over his last seven games, posting 11th-round value in nine-category formats with averages of 11.0 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.1 steals, 0.7 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers.

Royce O'Neale PF | PHO
Suns' Royce O'Neale: Plays 22 minutes off bench
O'Neale logged three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Sunday's 120-110 win over the Bulls.
Dillon Brooks picked up his 18th technical foul of the season and is facing a suspension for Tuesday's game against Houston. O'Neale has been quiet in recent weeks, but he could step into a larger role Tuesday, which would catapult him onto the streaming radar.

Jordan Goodwin SG | PHO
Suns' Jordan Goodwin: Scores 12 points as starter
Goodwin supplied 12 points (5-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Sunday's 120-110 win over Chicago.
Goodwin supplanted Collin Gillespie in the first unit, but each player saw 24 minutes and put up respectable fantasy lines. Goodwin is trending up over his last six games with averages of 8.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.8 three-pointers.

Collin Gillespie SG | PHO
Suns' Collin Gillespie: Sees 24 minutes off bench
Gillespie registered nine points (3-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 120-110 victory over the Bulls.
After starting in 55 straight appearances, Gillespie was demoted to a bench role Sunday with Jordan Goodwin getting the starting nod. The two players ended up logging 24 minutes apiece, suggesting that this could potentially become a timeshare. This will be a position battle to monitor closely.

Santos carried a probable tag heading into this contest. However, he is now officially good to go. The 23-year-old hasn't been productive in two prior meetings with the Rockets this season, averaging 7.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.5 steals across 24.0 minutes.
