Wednesday night’s pickups of the day include Marcus Morris, Chris Boucher and Lonnie Walker after a busy 11-game slate. Follow me on Twitter right here!

Marcus Morris 39 percent rostered in Yahoo! leagues – Morris had 21 points, 10 boards, two steals and four 3-pointers in a win over Houston and has scored in double figures in all but one game this season. He should be rostered in most leagues.

Chris Boucher 31% - Boucher doesn’t get enough minutes but they’ve been on the rise and he’s played at least 21 of them in three straight. He went off for 17 points, eight boards, two steals, a block and three triples on Wednesday for his best game of the season. He’s hit 9-of-16 3-pointers on the season with five steals and six blocks.

Lonnie Walker 38% - Walker went off for a season-high 28 points, five triples, a steal and a block on Wednesday and has scored in double figures in all but two games this season. He’ll be a hot pickup after last night’s explosion.

Jalen McDaniels 46% - JMD hit just 5-of-18 shots but also had 11 points, six rebounds, two assists, five steals and two blocks in the loss. With Miles Bridges possibly out for the year McDaniels should only get better with time.

Santi Aldama 48% - Aldama got back on track last night with 11 points, seven rebounds, two blocks and two 3-pointers in 29 minutes. He’d been shooting it poorly and was struggling, so there’s a chance he’s been dropped in your league.

Patrick Williams 24% - Williams hit 7-of-9 shots and two 3-pointers for 16 points, five boards and two blocks. He’s slowly coming on and worth a look in most leagues.

Davion Mitchell 31% - Mitchell fizzled on Wednesday with nine points, four assists and a 3-pointer in 29 minutes after blowing up for a huge game on Tuesday. As long as De’Aaron Fox is out with his knee injury, Mitchell is worth a look, despite last night’s disappointment.

Max Strus 42% - Strus hit 4-of-7 shots and two 3-pointers for 10 points and four assists. Kyle Lowry went off in this one and Jimmy Butler was out, but Strus has been holding his own for most of the season.

Larry Nance Jr. 9% - Nance had 11 points, eight rebounds, five assists, four steals and a block in 31 minutes off the bench. He didn’t hit a 3-pointer, but he’s capable of doing so. He should be rostered in more leagues.

Keita Bates-Diop 1% - The Spurs got their doors blown off last night but KBD hit 6-of-12 shots and two 3-pointers for 17 points, four rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes. He had 18 points and six boards in his previous game and any time he’s starting for the Spurs, he’s worth a look. But once Keldon Johnson and Devin Vassell are back from their injuries, KBD is going to take a hit.

Jose Alvarado 7% - Grand Theft Alvarado hit 6-of-8 shots and three 3-pointers for 15 points, two rebounds, four assists and a steal in just 18 minutes last night. He was instrumental in the Pelicans’ comeback and has played well in three of his last four.

Troy Brown Jr. 1% - TBJ started for the Lakers and hit 4-of-7 shots, a 3-pointer and 6-of-6 free throws for 15 points, 10 rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes. This was easily his best game of the season and he’s going to be worth a look if he sticks in the starting unit for L.A.

Immanuel Quickley 15% - Quickley blew up for 11 points, a career-high 16 rebounds, four assists and a 3-pointer in a loss to the Hawks. This looks fluky but he probably caught the eye of Tom Thibodeau tonight.

Javonte Green 7% - Green hit 7-of-7 shots and three triples off the bench for 17 points, eight boards, two steals and two blocks tonight. He got some extra run with Andre Drummond out and had his best game of the season.

Malik Monk 14% - Monk outplayed Davion Mitchell off the bench and hit 8-of-13 shots and two 3-pointers for a season-high 19 points and seven assists. He’s tough to trust but has scored at least 15 points in three games thus far. He’ll take a hit when De’Aaron Fox is back.
