Gorgui Dieng played 39 minutes and scored 14 points in an overtime loss to the Lakers on Friday night. He made 6-of-11 shots from the floor and rounded out his final line with six rebounds, three assists, a steal and three blocks.
Fantasy Impact:
Dieng's 11 attempts from the floor tied a high for the month of March. It has been rough for Dieng when it comes to dominant fantasy performances, but he's continued to put up consistent numbers across the board despite his usage rate (14.4% on the season). He's averaging 8.2 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 steals per game in the month of March. Believe it or not, that's good enough to be the 27th best center according to ESPN's player rater over the last 30 days. That's rosterable... but certainly not elite. Dieng is worth holding as the season draws to a close.
