Ron Holland II impresses with 14/4/1/5/2 line

DET_Holland II_Ron.jpg

Ronald Holland

DET Forward #5

Player Stats

Ron Holland II posted a team-high 14 points (4-of-12 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, five steals and two blocks over 23 minutes in Monday’s preseason win over the Suns.

This certainly felt like a bit of a showcase for Holland as he played a team-high 23 minutes off the bench, with 11 of those coming with Detroit’s main rotation in the first half alone. Amazingly, he led the team with 10 shot attempts in the opening half, but went just 1-of-4 from long range. The positive news is that he piled up an astounding five steals and also recorded a pair of blocks. The 21-year-old former lottery pick is a tantalizing talent that has shown flashes of big-time potential, but he remains a bit of a work in progress. It’ll be challenging for him to wrestle minutes away from offseason import John Collins, but he’s in line to play a big role for Detroit off the bench this season.

Caris LeVert

DET Guard #8

Caris LeVert (heel) is questionable for Monday’s Game 4 against the Cavaliers.

LeVert, who played 17 minutes in Game 3, is dealing with a right heel contusion. If he’s unable to play on Monday, the Pistons may look to Ron Holland to provide additional depth on the wing. Also, Kevin Huerter could pick up those minutes if he’s able to return from his adductor injury.
Ronald Holland

DET Forward #5

Ron Holland amassed 18 points (6-of-10 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block and three three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Bucks.

Holland was one of seven Pistons to score in double figures on Wednesday, with the 18 points being the most he’s scored in a game since the season opener against Orlando (19). With Detroit knowing that it will be the top seed in the East when the playoffs begin next weekend, there may be additional opportunities for Holland to score in the team’s final two regular-season games. If so, he may offer added value to those competing in active fantasy leagues.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (knee) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the 76ers.

Harris suffered a left knee contusion during the first quarter of Thursday’s win over the Timberwolves and did not return. If he’s unable to play, Javonte Green and Ron Holland are potential replacements in the starting lineup. Green started the third quarter of Thursday’s game, likely an indication of who would be head coach JB Bickerstaff’s pick.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (knee) is out for the remainder of Thursday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Harris played just six minutes before exiting Thursday’s game. Due to a left knee contusion suffered while converting a layup over Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, the veteran forward is done for the night. More minutes will be available to Javonte Green and Ron Holland.
Ronald Holland

DET Forward #5

on Holland tallied 13 points (4-of-7 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), two rebounds, two steals, two blocks and two three-pointers in Saturday’s win over the Timberwolves.

After totaling six points in his last three appearances, Holland more than doubled that tally on Saturday. The 13 points were the most he’s scored in a game since March 12, when the second-year wing scored 15 in a win over the 76ers. Another positive regarding Holland’s performance was the defensive production, as he recorded four “stocks.” Before Saturday, he last hit that number during a January 5 blowout of the Knicks. Holland is not a must-add player going into Detroit’s four-game Week 23, but he could have added value early on due to the back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (hip) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Harris was initially questionable ahead of Thursday’s win over the Thunder, a game in which he played 26 minutes. If he can’t play against the Timberwolves, Javonte Green and Ron Holland would likely see their opportunities increase.
Ausar Thompson

DET Guard-Forward #9

Ausar Thompson (ankle) is questionable to play against the Timberwolves on Saturday.

Thompson played through the ankle injury on Thursday but could end up missing this game. Ron Holland would likely be next in line to step into a starting spot, though with Tobias Harris and Jalen Duren questionable as well, there could be multiple open places in the starting frontcourt.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (hip) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Pelicans.

Harris played in Wednesday’s loss to the Hawks, a game he was initially listed as probable for. Thursday’s questionable tag means there’s a better chance the veteran forward won’t play. If Harris sits, Javonte Green and Ron Holland are potential replacements in the starting lineup. Green is probable with a sprained ankle.
Javonte Green

DET Guard #31

Javonte Green (ankle) is questionable to play against the Hawks on Wednesday.

Green has been playing a role on the wing off the bench for Detroit as of late, so his potential absence will open up extra minutes. Ron Holland should take on a larger role if Green is unavailable.
Tobias Harris

DET Forward #12

Tobias Harris (hip) is out for Friday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Harris is dealing with a hip injury, and his absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup. Ron Holland is a potential replacement and would be worth streaming in deep leagues given the opportunity and matchup.

Maxime Raynaud finished Thursday’s exhibition against the Lakers with 13 points (5-of-8 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists and two blocks.

The Kings were without Domantas Sabonis for Thursday’s game, so Raynaud started. An All-Rookie selection last season, the 7-foot-1 center made 56 starts for the then-injured Sabonis. Raynaud finished the defeat with a double-double, and he had 18 such games last season. With Sabonis back, Raynaud is at best a late-round option in 12-team drafts. However, it wouldn’t be surprising if his role expanded at some point, especially if the Kings moved Sabonis.

Precious Achiuwa amassed 18 points (9-of-13 FGs), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in Thursday’s exhibition against the Lakers.

After attempting just two shots in the Kings’ first meeting with the Lakers this preseason, Achiuwa was far more active on Thursday. Only Darius Acuff Jr. among the Kings’ starters took more shots, and Achiuwa shot well over 50 percent from the field. His viability as a fantasy option this season depends in part on Keegan Murray’s health, as he hasn’t played in either of Sacramento’s first two preseason games. While a healthy Murray would likely push De’Andre Hunter to the bench, his presence in the lineup could also mean fewer shots for Achiuwa.

Darius Acuff Jr. finished Thursday’s exhibition against the Lakers with 12 points (4-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), one assist, two steals, one block and two three-pointers.

Outside of a solid finish to the first half, Acuff struggled mightily on Thursday. The rookie point guard missed his first nine field-goal attempts, and he finished with more turnovers (three) than assists (one). Reading too much into two preseason appearances would be foolish, but those who roster Acuff will need to exercise patience.

Adou Thiero tallied six points (3-of-7 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals and two blocks in Thursday’s exhibition against the Kings.

Thiero has started the Lakers’ last two preseason games, and his combination of athleticism and defensive versatility could keep him in that role once the regular season begins. He didn’t offer much as a scorer against the Kings, but the second-year forward recorded four “stocks” in his 21 minutes. Thiero isn’t a must-draft player, but his role is worth watching.

Sandro Mamukelashvili tallied 19 points (7-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers in Thursday’s exhibition against the Kings.

After scoring 15 points as a spot starter in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, Mamukelashvili returned to a reserve role on Thursday. He was excellent, shooting 70 percent from the field and putting up a complete stat line. While coming off the bench limits Mamukelashvili’s fantasy ceiling, his floor should be relatively safe because the Lakers need bench scoring. He’s worth considering in the late rounds of 12-team drafts.

Austin Reaves accounted for eight points (2-of-7 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal in Thursday’s exhibition against the Kings.

Reaves was in the Lakers’ lineup on Thursday after missing the first two preseason games with a minor ankle injury. While he didn’t shoot well, the Lakers’ guard led the team with eight assists. LeBron James’ departure puts more responsibility on Reaves’ shoulders, raising his fantasy ceiling. At this point in the preseason, Reaves has a second-round ADP, and that’s unlikely to change before the regular season begins.

Luka Dončić recorded 23 points (6-of-16 FGs, 9-of-9 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Thursday’s exhibition against the Kings.

Dončić picked up a technical foul during the third quarter of Thursday’s exhibition, but this is a good time for that to happen since they don’t carry over into the regular season. Dončić led the Lakers in points and shot attempts, and that will once again be the norm when the regular season begins. Currently boasting a top-5 ADP, Luka’s fantasy ceiling rises slightly in turnover-punt builds.

Devin Vassell produced 12 points (4-of-8 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in Thursday’s exhibition against the Hawks.

Vassell’s ADP is outside the top-100, and that’s unlikely to change before the start of the regular season. In the past, he has delivered excellent fantasy value. However, San Antonio’s rotation is now far stronger than it was earlier in Vassell’s career, which lowers his fantasy ceiling. At best, he’s worth grabbing outside the first 100 picks in 12-team formats.

Victor Wembanyama notched nine points (3-of-6 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one three-pointer in Thursday’s exhibition against the Hawks.

Wembanyama had a relatively quiet night in his first preseason action, but it will change nothing about his fantasy outlook. He should go no lower than second in drafts, regardless of league format, and you can make a strong case for Wemby at 1.1.

Stephon Castle amassed 14 points (5-of-8 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer in Thursday’s exhibition against the Hawks.

Castle isn’t exactly a polarizing player in fantasy basketball, but his low field-goal percentage knocks him down the board in category leagues. He shot well on Thursday and posted a complete stat line, though he turned the ball over twice. If Castle becomes a more consistent shooter and keeps turnovers in check, he’ll have a higher fantasy ceiling.
