Warriors' Dennis Schroder: Won't debut Sunday
Rotowire
Schroder (trade pending) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
The trade sending Schroder to Golden State didn't become official until Sunday morning, so it's not surprising to see the veteran point guard ruled out. Schroder averaged 18.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals and a career-high 2.5 triples across 33.6 minutes in 23 games as the Nets' starting point guard, but it's unclear how big his role will be with the Warriors, as he'll have to compete with Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski for minutes. Schroder's next chance to make his Warriors debut will come Thursday in Memphis.

Warriors' Dennis Schroder: Dealt to Warriors
Rotowire
The Warriors are finalizing a deal with the Nets to land Dennis Schroder and one second-round pick in exchange for De'Anthony Melton and three second-round picks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The Warriors have been looking for playmaking help, and they have found some with Schroder. The veteran guard is averaging 18.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals and a career-high 2.5 triples across 33.6 minutes in 23 games as the Nets' starting point guard. He will now join a backcourt with Stephen Curry and compete for minutes with the likes of Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski. Although the trade can't be completed until Sunday, it is unclear if Schroder will play a backup point guard role or start alongside Curry right away.

Rotowire
Schroder closed with 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), three rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Friday's 135-119 loss to Memphis.
Schroder couldn't repeat the 34-point performance he delivered in the loss to the Bucks on Dec. 8, but the veteran floor general had another impressive performance as a scorer and playmaker. Schroder has scored at least 15 points in four of his five appearances this month, averaging 17.8 points, 7.6 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals per game in that stretch.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Surpasses 30 points as top scorer
Rotowire
Schroder ended Sunday's 118-113 loss to the Bucks with 34 points (13-19 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds and 11 assists over 34 minutes.
Schroder led the way for Brooklyn in Sunday's contest, pacing all Nets players in scoring and assists while connecting on a team-high-tying mark from three in a dominating offensive performance. The veteran guard's point total was also a season high, and he's now handed out at least 10 dimes in four contests this season, all as part of double-double performances.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Season-low four points Wednesday
Rotowire
Schroder produced four points (2-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 99-90 victory over the Pacers.
It was certainly a down night for Schroder, who also turned the ball over four times Wednesday, but he was able to come up with a clutch layup as well as a steal deep in the fourth quarter as Brooklyn nursed a late lead in the win. The 31-year-old veteran guard has been up and down for the Nets this season, and he's shooting a paltry 35.9 percent from the field and 25.9 percent from deep over his last nine games. Even so, Schroder is averaging a solid 16.0 points, 6.9 assists, 2.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.7 three-pointers during this cold spell, and he should maintain a featured role on offense while scoring machine Cam Thomas (hamstring) remains sidelined. Schroder has an expiring contract that could make him a trade candidate for contending clubs later this season, which is something for fantasy managers to keep in mind.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Records double-double
Rotowire
Schroder accumulated 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and 10 assists across 29 minutes during Monday's 128-102 loss to the Bulls.
Schroder missed all six of his shots from beyond the arc, but other than that, he had an impressive showing both as a scorer and playmaker. This was Schroder's third double-double of the season, and first since Nov. 19, but he should remain a productive offensive weapon for the Nets, especially with Cam Thomas (hamstring) sidelined until late December at the earliest.

Schroder returned Sunday after missing Friday's contest due to personal reasons, leading all Nets players in assists while finishing as one of two players with 20 or more points in a losing effort. Schroder has tallied at least 20 points in 10 outings this year, adding at least five dimes in eight of those contests. He has now surpassed the 20-point mark in three straight appearances.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Scores 29 points Wednesday
Rotowire
Schroder notched 29 points (8-21 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 127-117 victory over Phoenix.
Schroder had to embrace a more prominent role on offense due to the absence of Cam Thomas (hamstring), but he stepped his game up and finished with a strong line. This is the second time Schroder has scored at least 25 points in consecutive games, with the previous stretch being a three-game span between Oct. 27 and Oct. 30. Expect Schroder to experience an uptick in his fantasy value as he deals with a bigger role on offense and an uptick in his usage rate in the coming weeks.

Schroder had a rough showing from the field and needed 17 shots to score 14 points, but he salvaged his fantasy line with his eight assists and two steals. The veteran floor general hasn't recorded a double-double since late October, but he remains productive as the Nets' starting floor general.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Scores 22 points in close loss
Rotowire
Schroder produced 22 points (7-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and five assists across 37 minutes during Saturday's 105-100 loss to the Cavaliers.
Schroder is having an excellent start to the campaign, and he's reached the 20-point plateau in seven of his 10 appearances this season. The German floor general is doing more than just scoring, though, and he's also handed out five or more assists eight times. That mixture of being a scorer and facilitator gives him a strong floor in most formats, and even though he shares the court with Cameron Johnson and Cam Thomas, Schroder has enough touches and freedom on offense to remain valuable across all formats.

Rotowire
Schroder closed with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 106-92 loss to the Pistons.
After a blistering start to the campaign, Schroder has finally cooled off, scoring a combined 16 points in his last two games. As for Sunday night, he posted season-low marks of seven points and four assists. His workload hasn't been impacted, however, and the Nets are clearly confident with him running the show offensively.
