Availability

Fantasy Impact
Watkins broke the previous high of 20 points he scored exactly a week prior with his 24-point effort on Sunday. He hit a career-best five triples and had at least one three-pointer in seven straight games. He averaged 10.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 23.5 minutes per game in 23 contests after the All-Star break. He should be a big part of the Wizards' future moving forward.

The rookie from Florida State has been getting a real shot to show something down the stretch, as he's seen nearly 23 minutes per game while playing in 14 straight.

Fantasy Impact
Watkins has seen his playing time increase over the last couple of months and he is averaging 11.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists while shooting 50% from the floor in 12 games in February and March.
