Cory Joseph

Cory Joseph totaled two points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three assists and a block across 26 minutes in the Kings’ 100-99 win over the Celtics on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Joseph garnered his third straight start, with De'Aaron Fox (ankle) out. Joseph and Yogi Ferrell have split duties at point, though neither have made any meaningful contributions. Joseph can be ignored outside of very deep leagues, as Bogdan Bogdanovic and Buddy Hield look to be the primary beneficiaries of Fox's injury.

Corey Joseph had two points (1-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and five assists in 23 minutes during the Kings’ loss to the Lakers on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Joseph had shooting woes but got the start with DeAaron Fox (ankle) out. Yogi Ferrell played 29 minutes off the bench and chipped in 14 points. So long as Fox is out, owners should keep an eye on this point guard by committee with neither Joseph nor Ferrell being the clear option yet.

Cory Joseph gets the start on Tuesday in place of the injured De'Aaron Fox and finished with three points (1-for-6 FG, 1-for-5 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and one steal in 38 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

Joseph is certainly worth a look in all leagues over the next few weeks with Fox out. Bogdanovic is the player to add from the Kings with Fox out.

Updating a previous report, Cory Joseph will in fact participate in the FIBA tournament. Nick Nurse, Canada's head coach, confirmed that Joseph is headed to China after recent conversations.

Fantasy Impact

Joseph is likely to play a healthy dose of minutes for Team Canada. As a second-unit player for Sacramento, however, he will not see the court enough to be a realistic fantasy option.

Cory Joseph has decided to drop out of the FIBA World Cup. He likely intends to avoid the risk of injury, and will now have the time to concentrate on preparing for training camp.

Fantasy Impact

While Joseph should be a rotational player, he will need to earn sufficient minutes each night in order to be a fantasy option.
