Who is trending up? Which rotations are changing? What’s the latest with the notable injuries around the NBA?
Here’s a look around the league at the most fantasy relevant news and notes for all 30 teams:
Atlanta Hawks
Following a two-month absence due to wrist surgery, De’Andre Hunter has returned to action. In light of the Hawks trading Cam Reddish to the New York Knicks on Thursday, he should be stashed. When his conditioning improves, he could be a difference-maker in the final stretch. Hunter averaged 16.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.0 assist per 40 minutes.
Boston Celtics
As we approach the trade deadline, rumblings around the Celtics may make some fantasy basketball managers queasy. However, Robert Williams III is one player you shouldn’t be concerned about being dealt. Averaging 10 points and 9.0 rebounds per game this season, Williams signed a four-year, $48 million extension that starts in 2022-2023. In fantasy drafts, the Time Lord has outperformed his average draft position and seems to be part of the Celtics’ core moving forward.
Brooklyn Nets
As the Nets play three games in the next five days, Day’Ron Sharpe finds himself on the streaming radar. LaMarcus Aldridge (foot) and Nic Claxton (hamstring) are both injured. On Wednesday night, Sharpe scored a career-high 20 points with seven rebounds and a block against the Bulls. He is available in virtually all ESPN leagues.
Charlotte Hornets
P.J. Washington has struggled mightily the last three games, averaging 4.7 PPG, 7.7 RPG, 1.7 SPG and 1.0 BPG. This, along with his 26.3 FG%, is tough for fantasy managers to absorb. There are two Hornets currently in league protocols: Kelly Oubre Jr. and Vernon Carey Jr. Washington is in a great spot to bounce back against the Orlando Magic on Friday….
