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.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Drops 20 points Friday
Rotowire
Schroder produced 20 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, six assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 116-101 loss to the Magic.
Schroder scored a season-high 20 points in the loss, turning in another decent performance. Despite his limitations, Schroder typically finds a way to do just enough to remain fantasy-relevant, much like he has done to begin the season. His long-term outlook is far from enticing, given the Nets could look to move him or lean into their youth a little more as the season progresses. For now, he deserves a roster spot in most formats, particularly for anyone seeking points and assists.

Nets' Dennis Schroder: Modest production in loss Friday
Rotowire
Schroder closed with 12 points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3PT, 5-6 FT), three assists, two steals and one rebound in 35 minutes during Friday's 116-112 preseason loss to the Raptors.
Schroder played a team-high 35 minutes, delivering modest yet serviceable production. Coming into the regular season, Schroder will be battling with Ben Simmons for the starting point guard role. Both are worth taking a flyer on late in drafts, just in case either can establish themselves as the clear-cut choice. Simmons is also no stranger when it comes to injuries, meaning Schroder could simply land the role by default at some point.
