Fantasy Impact
Wallace is one many players still sidelined for the Thunder to close the regular season. Nikola Topić, Brooks Barnhizer and Payton Sandfort should all continue to see plenty of run for them.
Cason Wallace has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Wallace is one of several starters ruled out for Oklahoma City with them having clinched the No. 1 seed in the West. It is possible he sits each of the final two games of the regular season.
Cason Wallace filled the stat sheet for the Thunder Friday night, recording three steals, dishing out two assists, grabbing five rebounds, blocking one shot, and scoring 21 points (8-11 FG, 5-7 3PT) in a 131-113 win over the Bulls.
Fantasy Impact
Wallace continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with one or more rebounds and four or more points in each of his last five games. The guard remains one of many options as part of a deep Oklahoma City lineup to this point, averaging 8.6 points, 2.0 steals, 2.7 assists, and 3.1 rebounds per game to go along with a usage rate of 14.0% so far this season.
With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Ajay Mitchell both sidelined, Wallace has stepped into a bigger role and run with it — 20 or more points in three straight games, including Wednesday's 23-point effort against the Pistons on 9-of-17 shooting.
Fantasy Impact
He's quietly become one of the more reliable scoring options on the perimeter right now, and fantasy managers in need of guard help would be wise to take notice.
