Dennis Schroder

Dennis Schroder has been suspended for three games for attempting to strike a Lakers player back on December 28th well after the game was over.

Fantasy Impact

With Schroder out, Malik Monk should see some extra minutes. He’s shown the ability to have some nice games when given the opportunity, so he could be an interesting short term add for those in need of a play.

Dennis Schroder scored 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-8 3P, 1-1 FT) with three rebounds and seven assists in the Kings’ 120-106 loss to the Celtics.

Fantasy Impact

After averaging 10.5 points over his last four games, Schroder was able to put a better number on the board for the Kings. With his ability to dish out assists being a strength, he’s still a capable player and fine start for fantasy, even if the ceiling isn’t incredibly high.

Dennis Schroder (ankle) is questionable for the Kings game against the Blazers.

Fantasy Impact

Schroder just came back from an eight game absence due to a hip injury and is now questionable to play with an ankle. He’s been a decent start for fantasy purposes as a streamer or injury fill in. Fantasy managers will need to monitor his status, as his absence could open things up a little more for Keon Ellis.

Dennis Schroder returned from an eight-game absence due to a hip injury in Sunday’s 117-103 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, posting 17 points (5-11 FG, 3-5 3PT, 4-5 FT) along with one rebound and three assists in 25 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

Schroder came off the bench Sunday and made the most of his opportunity, shooting an impressive 60% from beyond the arc. He could see increased minutes in Thursday’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers if Zach LaVine (ankle), who left Sunday’s game early, is unable to play.

Dennis Schroder has been upgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Fantasy Impact

Schroder was originally listed as doubtful on Saturday’s injury report but has since been upgraded to questionable. While it’s not guaranteed that he will play on Sunday, the change indicates he is inching closer to a return. If he ultimately misses his eighth straight game, Malik Monk and Keon Ellis are expected to continue seeing increased minutes.
