Jacob Evans III

Jacob Evans was traded to the Wolves on Thursday as part of the deal that sent Andrew Wiggins to the Warriors.

Fantasy Impact

The Wolves acquired Evans along with teammates D'Angelo Russell and Omari Spellman. Evans joins a crowded Minnesota backcourt with no clear path to playing time – keep him on waivers for the foreseeable future.

Jacob Evans III started in place of D'Angelo Russell (quad) and contributed seven points (1-8 FG, 1-3 3PT, 4-4 FT) along with two rebounds, three assists, one steal, three blocks, and zero turnovers in 26 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

Evans played great defense against the Wizards tonight, setting a career-high in blocks (3). Unless Russell gets moved by the February 6th deadline, don't expect Evans to receive 20+ minutes on a regular basis.

Jacob Evans III was recalled from the Santa Cruz Warriors where he started two games and averaged 12.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.5 steals and one block in 30.8 minutes per game.

Fantasy Impact

Evans III makes his return to the Warriors bench tonight versus Philadelphia after being sent down to Santa Cruz just five days ago. Barring any significant injuries or trades involving the Warriors backcourt, Evans III is best left on waivers.

The Warriors assigned guard Jacob Evans III to the Santa Cruz Warriors after appearing in 22 games this season, averaging 4.4 points, 1.5 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in 15.0 minutes per game.

Fantasy Impact

Evans has been having trouble finding his shot this season - shooting a woeful 31.2% from the field. This will be Evans' second stint with the Golden State affiliate, after putting up decent numbers last season with averages of 11.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 26.1 minutes per game.

Jacob Evans (concussion) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Blazers.

Fantasy Impact

Evans will miss his third consecutive game due to a concussion. He remains in concussion protocol and is day-to-day. Evans next chance to return will be Wednesday against the Jazz.
