Fantasy Impact

With Abrines out, Terrence Ferguson remains in the starting lineup and will see a few more minutes with Paul George also out. Dennis Schroder will pair up more with Russell Westbrook making him the better daily option.

Alex Abrines scored eight points, with two rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block, in 20 minutes of play against the Suns on Monday. Abrines shot 2-for-6 from the field and 2-for-6 on three-pointers.

Fantasy Impact

Abrines exploded for a career high 25 points on November 1st, but since then has fallen back into single digit territory. That's unlikely to change, and his other stats can't be counted on to make up the difference, so leave Abrines out of lineups.
