Jonas Valanciunas puts in 10 points on Sunday

Jonas Valanciunas scored 10 points on 71 percent shooting from the field during Toronto's 132-125 loss to OKC on Sunday afternoon. Valanciunas added two boards and two assists in just 22 minutes on the floor.

Fantasy Impact:

After posting six double-doubles in his previous eight games (coming a combined three rebounds short in those other two games) Valanciunas crashed back down to earth against Steven Adams and the Thunder in limited minutes on Sunday. The fact that the 7-footer saw only 22 minutes against a team that plays a 7-footer as much as the Thunder do is truly perplexing. Expect Valanciunas to get back to what he was doing over the previous couple of weeks next time Toronto plays, as the big Lithuanian had been putting up 17.6 points, 11.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game on 55 percent shooting from the field over the eight game span preceding Sunday's game.
