Wes Iwundu puts up a season-high nine points in defeat

Wes Iwundu finished with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist, and one steal across 30 minutes as the Mavericks were defeated by the Bulls 117-101 on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Iwundu drew his fourth-straight start on Sunday in the wake of the Mavericks COVID-19 outbreak. He was able to score a season-high nine points on Sunday but contributed little else. Despite averaging 27.7 minutes per game over his last four starts, Iwundu is only putting up 4 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per contest. What little fantasy value was here will go away as soon as Dorian Finney-Smith, Josh Richardson, and Jalen Brunson all return.

Wes Iwundu (neck) ruled out Friday

Magic F Wes Iwundu (neck) has cleared concussion protocol but will not suit up against the Nets on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Iwundu is still recovering from a nasty fall that occurred in the Magic's scrimmage against the Lakers just six days ago and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings. Iwundu did an excellent job filling in for Jonathan Isaac, but now that Isaac is back, he doesn't carry much fantasy value in DFS. On the season, Iwundu is averaging 5.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assist, and 0.6 steals in 18 minutes per game for the Magic.

Wesley Iwundu (concussion) unlikely to play on Friday

Speaking with the media on Wednesday, Magic head coach Steve Clifford stated that although Wesley Iwundu's headaches have ended, he is unlikely to play on Friday against the Nets.

Fantasy Impact

Iwundu took a hard fall during Saturday's scrimmage against the Lakers and was put in the league's concussion protocol as a result. The fact that he no longer has headaches is a good sign but Friday's match-up against the Nets appears to be too soon for Iwundu to clear protocol. The 25-year-old was quietly doing a solid job filling in for Jonathan Isaac after he went down with a serious leg injury back on January 1st. Since then, Iwundu has averaged 6.6 points and 2.5 rebounds in 18.9 minutes per night, however, Isaac's return to the lineup renders Iwundu useless from a fantasy perspective even when healthy.

Wes Iwundu placed into concussion protocol

Wes Iwundu suffered a concussion after falling during the team’s scrimmage against the Lakers and has been placed into the concussion protocol. Iwundu also received stitches for a cut he sustained over his left eye.

Fantasy Impact

Iwundu has averaged 18.0 minutes of playing time, 5.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, and 0.6 steals per game. The Magic seem to be running their rotation as if Jonathan Isaac will not be returning for the restart. However, with reports indicating that there might be a chance for Isaac’s return, Iwundu finds himself in an interesting position, which drastically alters his potential value. Should Isaac not return, Iwundu has an opportunity to own the starting small forward role as Aaron Gordon would fill the four position, or he could be a backup behind Aaron Gordon, rotating in and out with James Ennis should Isaac return. These past two scrimmages Ennis has been starting at the three, leaving question marks around Iwundu’s role in the rotation. His production is somewhat inconsistent, but should he reclaim and maintain a position within the rotation, first or second, he would be worth a look in deep-league play. His minimum price point and his ability to put up a decent line here-and-there could also make him an ideal candidate for a stars-and-scrubs lineup in DFS.

Wesley Iwundu scores eight points in spot-start

Wesley Iwundu scored eight points with two rebounds, one assist and one block in 23 minutes as the Magic beat the Timberwolves on Friday night.

Fantasy Impact

Iwundu picked up the start with Evan Fournier out. Fournier could be out for an extended period of time but don't expect Iwundu to provide much fantasy value and he can be left on the waiver wire by owners.
