Lundy

Lundy has been one of the best free agents in Las Vegas, and the 2023 second-round pick had another excellent outing on Monday. Filling the stat sheet, he shot 4-of-7 from beyond the arc and made the game’s biggest defensive play. Lundy’s rejection of a Rienk Mast floater in the final seconds preserved Toronto’s 94-93 victory. Given how well he’s played in Las Vegas, it would be unsurprising if Lundy landed a two-way contract, whether it’s with Toronto or another team.

The 48th overall pick in the 2023 draft, Lundy has not appeared in an official NBA game since January 24, 2024. An ankle injury ended his rookie campaign, and he has been fighting to get another shot ever since. Lundy came out firing on Saturday, shooting 6-of-9 from beyond the arc to lead the Raptors in scoring. Toronto has an open two-way contract slot; Lundy may be the mix to earn it. If not, Saturday’s performance may help set the stage for him to earn a training camp invite from the Raptors or another team.

Signed to a two-way contract by the Clippers on March 1, Lundy did not appear in a game during the 2024-25 season. The team’s decision to waive the 2023 second-round pick will not impact the Clippers’ rotation or fantasy basketball.

Lundy has been sidelined for a while with an ankle injury, and the Hawks decided to open up the two-way spot. He’ll likely remain with the College Park Skyhawks and may return to his two-way spot eventually, but Atlanta will be able to add a different player on a two-way deal now.

While Lundy’s continued absence won’t impact the team’s rotation, but it is worth noting that Hunter is still out due to personal reasons, not a right knee injury. It’s unclear how much longer he’ll be out, since he hasn’t played since their second game of the season. Zaccharie Risacher should continue to start in his place.

Lundy’s continued absence will not impact fantasy basketball, as he’s rarely in the rotation when healthy.

Lundy’s continued absence will not impact fantasy basketball, as he is not in the rotation when healthy.

Lundy isn’t in the rotation when healthy, so his absence will not impact fantasy basketball.

None of these players will play enough when available to impact fantasy basketball, so their availability isn’t all that noteworthy.

Neither Matthews nor Lundy has provided much fantasy value when healthy, so their absences will not impact that regard. The former has been more impactful to the Hawks rotation, albeit not by much.
