Rotoworld

Darius Bazley

FA Power Forward #21

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Darius Bazley led the Lakers with 27 points (8-of-10 FGs, 10-of-12 FTs), 13 rebounds, two assists, one block and one three-pointer in an 89-88 win over the Spurs on Tuesday.

Bazley shouldn’t have to play in Summer League to earn a roster spot, but he is. With how dominant he has been, it would be surprising if he didn’t at least get a two-way deal. He was fantastic on both ends of the floor on Tuesday and helped the Lakers complete the comeback with a putback dunk that gave them the 89-88 lead. As long as Bazley is suiting up, expect him to dominate.

Amen Thompson had 26 points (11-of-12 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one block in Friday’s win over the Trail Blazers.

Thompson appeared to tweak his ankle in Thursday’s loss to the Warriors, but showed no ill effects with monster game against the Trail Blazers on Friday. The 23-year-old point guard had 26 points, seven rebounds and seven assists. Thompson also had an impact on the defensive end with two steals and a block. He’s provided seventh-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Rockets close out Week 19 against the Spurs on Sunday.

Sengun has had at least 28 points in two of his last three games. The 23-year-old center was excellent Friday against the Trail Blazers, shooting 73.3 percent from the field. Sengun has provided seventh-round per game value over the last two weeks, according to Basketball Monster. The Rockets close out Week 19 on Sunday against the Spurs.

Rui Hachimura

LAL Forward #28
Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves, Marcus Smart, Rui Hachimura and Jaxson Hayes will start Friday’s game against the Pacers.

The Lakers won’t have LeBron James (elbow, foot) or Deandre Ayton (knee) for Friday’s game. Hachimura and Hayes move into the starting lineup, and both players are worth streaming in deeper fantasy leagues due to the Lakers’ lack of frontcourt depth.

Aaron Nesmith

IND Guard-Forward #23

Aaron Nesmith (ankle, back) is available for Friday’s game against the Lakers.

Nesmith was initially probable for Friday’s game, so the upgrade in status was expected. He’ll look to put forth a better effort than he did in Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, having scored two points on 1-of-8 shooting.

Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel had 27 points (9-of-14 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, four assists and six three-pointers in Friday’s loss to the Heat.

Knueppel and the Hornets saw their winning streak snapped at the hands of the Heat on Friday 128-120. The 20-year-old shooting guard still had an excellent game, leading Charlotte with 27 points. Knueppel was 9-of-14 from the field and went 6-of-10 from behind the three-point line. He’s provided fourth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Hornets close out Week 19 against the Suns on Sunday.

Andrew Nembhard

IND Guard-Forward #2

Andrew Nembhard (back, neck) is available for Friday’s game against the Lakers.

Nembhard is good to go after being listed as probable on the Pacers’ initial injury report. He was limited to 24 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, a game that got out of hand during the third quarter. He may be able to play a bit more if the Pacers keep things close against the Lakers.

Pascal Siakam

IND Forward #43

Pascal Siakam (wrist) is available for Friday’s game against the Lakers.

As expected, Siamak is good to go after initially being listed as probable for Friday’s game. He logged 30 minutes in Wednesday’s blowout loss to the Clippers and should take on a similar workload against the Lakers.

Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. had 19 points (7-of-12 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, four assists and four three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Hornets.

Jaquez played 31 minutes off the bench with Andrew Wiggins (knee) sidelined against the Hornets on Friday. The 25-year-old guard made the most of his opportunity with 19 points and four three-pointers. Jaquez doesn’t typically record many three-pointers, but this game was a different story.

Bam Adebayo

MIA Center-Forward #13

Bam Adebayo had 24 points (10-of-26 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), 12 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in Friday’s win over the Hornets.

Adebayo has now scored at least 21 points in five consecutive games and has three double-doubles over that span. The 28-year-old center’s scoring hot streak overlaps with the Heat’s own four-game winning streak. He’s provided third-round per game value over the last two weeks, according to Basketball Monster. Adebayo and the Heat close out Week 19 against the Pistons on Sunday.

Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Tyler Herro had 35 points (12-of-21 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds, nine assists, one steal and eight three-pointers in the Heat’s 128-120 victory over the Hornets on Friday.

Herro has had some good games since returning from injury this season, but none better than Friday’s 35-point effort in the win over the Hornets. The 26-year-old point guard was on fire from downtown, going 8-of-10 from behind the three-point line. Herro has shot above 50 percent from the field in five consecutive games. While he won’t stay hot like this forever, Herro’s managers have to enjoy the ride. The Heat close out the week against the Pistons on Sunday.
