Jeremiah Fears scored 40 points (17-29 FG, 1-7 3PT, 5-5 FT) to go along with five rebounds, six assists and three steals in the Pelicans 156-137 win over the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Fears took full advantage of the absences of all three of Zion Williamson, Saddiq Bey and Herb Jones. He set the Pelicans franchise rookie record for points in a game. He could continue to see similar opportunity to close the regular season this week.
Fears led the Pelicans in rebounds on the second night of a back-to-back Friday — 28 points (10-of-19 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, and five three-pointers in the loss to the Kings.
Fantasy Impact
Five three-pointers and six assists alongside the team-high rebound total makes this one of his more complete performances of the season, and the production on a back-to-back second leg makes it even more impressive.
Jeremiah Fears scored 21 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3PT, 4-5 FT) in Thursday's loss to the Trail Blazers.
Fantasy Impact
Fears not only came off the bench to lead the Pelicans in scoring Thursday, but he made an impact on the defensive end as well, coming up with two steals and two blocks. The rookie has reached double-digit points in each of his last five games, averaging 15.4 points, 3.6 assists, and 1.4 steals in that span.
Fears shot a season-high field goal percentage Tuesday, finishing with 21 points (9-of-12 FGs), three three-pointers, three assists, two steals, and one rebound off the bench against the Knicks.
Fantasy Impact
It was his third 20-point game since moving to a reserve role in January, and the efficiency on 9-of-12 shooting makes it his most complete offensive performance of that stretch.
Jeremiah Fears finished with 13 points (6-18 FG, 1-5 3PT), 10 rebounds, eight assists, and two steals in Wednesday's loss to the Heat.
Fantasy Impact
Fears was less than efficient from the field Wednesday, but that did not stop him from stuffing the stat sheet. The rookie has turned in back-to-back strong efforts off the bench, playing 30-plus minutes in each game.
