Green has shot just 5-of-22 from three over his last four games, and Tuesday was more of the same — 0-of-4 from deep, finishing with 15 points (5-of-14 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), three blocks, three rebounds, and one assist in the loss to the Rockets.
Fantasy Impact: The free-throw line kept the scoring total in double figures, but the three-point drought is the defining story of his recent stretch and something to watch as Phoenix heads into the final games of the regular season.
Williams logged 28 minutes Tuesday in his second game back in the starting lineup, finishing with 19 points (7-of-9 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, and three steals in the loss to the Rockets.
Fantasy Impact: Oso Ighodaro — who had 8 points, 5 rebounds, and one each of assists, steals, and blocks in 19 bench minutes — could move back into a larger role Wednesday against the Mavericks if the Suns choose to rest Williams.
Jordan Poole scored 34 points (12-23 FG, 7-16 3PT, 3-4 FT) to go along with two rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in the Pelicans 156-137 win over the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact: Poole took full advantage of the absences of all three of Zion Williamson, Saddiq Bey and Herb Jones. He could continue to see similar opportunity to close the regular season this week.
Kennedy Chandler scored 31 points (11-18 FG, 2-3 3PT, 7-8 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, eight assists and two steals in the 156-137 loss for the Jazz against the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact: Despite coming off the bench, Chandler still managed to play 43 minutes and took full advantage of the opportunity. He'll remain on a 10-day contract through the end of the season.
John Konchar scored 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and one block in the 156-137 loss the Jazz against the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact: Despite coming off the bench, Konchar still managed to play 38 minutes and took full advantage of the opportunity. He should continue to see plenty of run in the final two games of the season for Utah.
Bez Mbeng scored 26 points (12-18 FG, 1-4 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with three rebounds, three assists and five steals in the 156-137 loss for the Jazz against the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact: Mbeng played all 48 minutes and took full advantage of the opportunity. He will continue to see plenty of run to close the season this week for the Jazz.
Jaylen Brown scored 35 points (13-29 FG, 3-10 3PT, 6-7 FT) to go along with nine rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in the Celtics 113-102 win over the Hornets.
Fantasy Impact: Brown exploded for a team-high in points for Boston. The lone knock on his big night were the five turnovers he committed. He'll look to close the regular season strong.
Ethan Thompson scored 17 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3PT, 8-10 FT) to go along with four rebounds and two steals in the Pacers 124-104 loss against the Timberwolves.
Fantasy Impact: Thompson scored a team-high in points for Indiana. He will close out the season on a two-way contract.
Ayo Dosunmu scored 24 points (10-17 FG, 1-5 3PT, 3-3 FT) to go along with five rebounds, one assist and three steals in the Timberwolves 124-104 win over the Pacers.
Fantasy Impact: Dosunmu took advantage of the opportunity with Anthony Edwards ruled out. He did commit five turnovers, but otherwise posted an impressive performance.
Sharife Cooper scored 17 points (6-10 FG, 2-5 3P, 3-3 FT) with a rebound and four assists in the Wizards' 129-98 loss to the Bulls.
Fantasy Impact: Cooper tied with Bub Carrington for the team lead in turnovers with five, not something you like to be in the lead for. He will look to have some better nights to end the season on a high note in the final days of the regular season.
Bub Carrington scored 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-8 3P, 2-2 FT) with four rebounds and seven assists in the Wizards' 129-98 blowout loss to the Bulls.
Fantasy Impact: Carrington struggled from three in this game, hitting just 25% of his attempts from downtown. He also struggled with turnovers with five, certainly not his best night as far as ball security is concerned. He will look to have some redemption as the regular season comes to a close.
OG Anunoby scored 22 points (7-14 FG, 4-10 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go with five rebounds and two blocks in Monday's win over the Hawks.
Fantasy Impact: Anunoby has been lighting it up lately for the Knicks. The veteran forward has eclipsed 20 points in each of the Knicks' first three games this month, averaging 26.0 per contest alongside 8.7 rebounds and 1.7 blocks while shooting 15 of 28 from beyond the arc.
Dyson Daniels scored 11 points (4-11 FG, 1-3 3PT, 2-4 FT) to go with 12 rebounds, three assists, and two steals in Monday's loss to the Knicks.
Fantasy Impact: Daniels continues his jack-of-all-trades ways. The fourth-year pro has put up double-digit points in each of his last four games, averaging 13.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 2.5 steals.
Jalen Johnson finished with 21 points (8-19 FG, 3-5 3PT, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, and five assists in Monday's loss to the Knicks.
Fantasy Impact: Johnson put up a fourth straight double-double in a game that came right down to the wire Monday night. In that span, the All-Star forward has averaged 19.3 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 5.8 assists while shooting 47.5% from the field.
Aaron Gordon finished with 23 points (8-14 FG, 4-9 3PT, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, and five assists in Monday's win over the Trail Blazers.
Fantasy Impact: Gordon started this month off with a clunker, putting up just six points while shooting 1-7 from the field. He has bounced back with a pair of nice showings, though, totaling 38 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists over the last two games. Gordon is playing well as the Nuggets prep for the playoffs.
Toumani Camara scored 30 points (10-16 FG, 8-13 3PT, 2-2 FT) and grabbed five rebounds in Monday's loss to the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact: Camara has now hit a whopping 14 three-pointers over the last two games and averaged 23.3 points over the last four. The Belgian forward is locked in as the Blazers get set to do battle in play-in games next week.
Anthony Black scored 14 points (4-11 FG, 1-4 3P, 5-7 FT) with a rebound, two assists, and two steals in the Magic’s 123-107 win over the Pistons.
Fantasy Impact: Black returned from a multi-week injury absence to lead the Magic bench in points, despite having a decent amount of rust to shake off on his shooting. He should be a decent asset the rest of the Magic’s final few games.
Javonte Green scored 17 points (6-13 FG, 3-8 3P, 2-3 Ft) with six rebounds, two assists, three steals, and two blocks in the Pistons’ 123-107 loss to the Magic on Monday.
Fantasy Impact: Green led the Pistons bench in points, also contributing a healthy amount on the defensive side of the court. He’s shown the ability to put up this type of performance from time to time, but he’s not consistent enough to warrant starting.
Kevin Huerter scored 17 points (7-14 FG, 3-7 3P) with three rebounds, five assists, and four steals in the Pistons’ 123-107 loss to the Magic.
Fantasy Impact: Huerter had a nice game overall on both ends of the court, but struggled with turnovers, ending the night second on the team with four. He’s been a bit up and down and tough to trust these last few games, so he is off the board for fantasy.
Ellis recorded a career-high eight assists in his second straight start Monday, finishing with 19 points (7-of-11 FGs), four rebounds, three three-pointers, and one steal against the Grizzlies.
Fantasy Impact: It was also his second straight game with three made threes, and the efficient scoring alongside the assist record makes this one of his most complete performances of the season — a strong note to end the regular year on before Cleveland's rotation returns to full health.
