Russell and Williams sat out Saturday’s loss to the Pacers, with Tyrese Martin and Keon Johnson filling the voids in the lineup. Those two will head to the bench if Russell and Williams are available, with Keon having a better chance of retaining his fantasy value.

As has been the case for much of the season, Young is good to go after showing up on the injury report with a lingering Achilles tendon issue. He’ll handle his usual workload as the Hawks’ starting point guard.

Young has scored at least 28 points in four of his previous five games and is keeping the Hawks afloat in the Eastern Conference. It appears like he’ll suit up on Sunday in an attempt to lead his team to a third straight win.

In the steals category, Daniels’ 2024-25 season will go down in league history once it’s completed. He’s had at least three pilfers in 38 of the 65 games he has appeared in this season. While Jaren Jackson Jr. and Evan Mobley certainly deserve the praise they have received, Daniels’ name may not come up enough regarding the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award. And the fantasy value has been there, with Dyson providing top-25 value in eight-cat formats over the past month.

After scoring 18 points on 6-of-23 shooting in the three games prior, Niang was outstanding on Saturday. The 23 points are the most he’s scored in a game since March 6, and this was his first game with at least five three-pointers since February 23. Niang and Caris LeVert (14/2/6 with one three-pointer) have boosted their values since joining the Hawks at the trade deadline, with the latter being the superior deep-league asset. The Hawks play three games during Week 21, starting with the Rockets on Tuesday.

Okongwu continued his stellar play on Saturday, recording his fourth consecutive double-double. Over the past month, the Hawks center has provided top-20 value in eight-cat formats. With Clint Capela likely done for the season due to injury, nothing has prevented Okongwu from logging heavy minutes. Not only is he helping fantasy managers win their leagues this season, but Onyeka is boosting his value for drafts in the fall.

Young has scored 25 points or more in six of his last eight outings following Saturday’s latest 25-point performance. Over the past two weeks, the Hawks point guard has provided first-round value in eight-cat formats, one round better than his season-long production. The Hawks now hit the road for three games during Week 21, starting with the Rockets on Tuesday.

Johnson provided more of the usual on Saturday, recording a stat line that was nearly full while struggling with his percentages. Over the past two weeks, he’s shot 40.2 percent from the field and 50 percent from the foul line. D’Angelo Russell not playing on Saturday raised Johnson’s ceiling, even though he has been a consistent member of the starting lineup. Tyrese Martin started for Russell and finished with nine points, four rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in 28 minutes.

Two days after a solid performance against the Pacers came to a premature end due to his ejection, Watford made up for lost time on Saturday. The 26 points are the most he’s scored in a Nets uniform and one shy of his career-high. While Watford is ranked outside the top 200 in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, he’s capable of having days like Saturday. The Nets play four games during Week 21, starting with Dallas on Monday.

Johnson did not play in Thursday’s overtime loss to the Pacers, sitting out for rest reasons. He logged starters’ minutes on Saturday, alleviating the concerns of fantasy managers who may have been curious about how much Johnson would play. His availability is worth watching moving forward, especially with the Nets ending their four-game Week 21 with a Friday/Saturday back-to-back.

Young and LeVert were initially probable for Saturday’s game, so the status upgrades were expected. While the former will assume his usual duties as the Hawks’ starting point guard, the latter will be a key option off the bench. LeVert is worth rostering in deeper leagues.

The Nets are without D’Angelo Russell and Ziaire Williams, opening up two spots in the starting lineup. One has been filled by Cameron Johnson, who returns to action after sitting out Thursday’s overtime loss to the Pacers. The other change is Martin, who steps in for Russell. This change also means more time on the ball for Keon Johnson, which raises his fantasy ceiling.

Williams was initially listed as questionable, but will ultimately miss Saturday’s game against the Pacers with a hamstring injury. Cameron Johnson will take his spot in the starting lineup as he returns from a one-game absence due to rest, but Tyrese Martin and Trendon Watford figure to see increased minutes off the bench as well.

Williams has played well recently but has a chance to miss Saturday’s game. However, Cameron Johnson (rest) will be back after sitting out on Thursday. If Williams is sidelined, Johnson will slide into the open starting spot, though Tyrese Martin and Trendon Watford will still see extra minutes off the bench.

Russell is dealing with right ankle soreness. The 29-year-old point guard’s injury is bad enough that he’s ruled out over 24 in advance of the game. With Russell sidelined, the Nets will likely go back to Tyrese Martin in the starting lineup.

Okongwu has missed four straight games due to personal reasons, but he will presumably miss the rest of the season with a ligament injury in the fourth metacarpal of his left hand. Capela’s minutes as backup center will likely be absorbed primarily by Dominick Barlow, though Barlow is not a recommended streaming option for fantasy hoops managers.

Russell shrugged off a slow start to the game and ended up scoring at least 20 points for the second time since the All-Star break. It was still an inefficient shooting night, but that isn’t new for him. He has shot below 40 percent from the floor in five straight games and has shot 39.5 percent from the floor this season, which is a steep drop from his 45.6 percent shooting last year. Russell is still capable of being a strong fantasy asset, but he has had quite a few poor performances recently and has also missed quite a few games.

Williams fell one point shy of tying his season-high, which he set back in November. However, he was able to set a new career-high for three-pointers made despite the loss. The 23-year-old has hit 13 three-pointers across his last three appearances and has provided top-75 value nine-cat leagues over the past two weeks. The former lottery pick has had a solid first season in Brooklyn and should continue to play a significant role for them over the final few weeks of the season.

Watford was able to contribute solid value off the bench across his 27 minutes in Thursday’s loss to the Pacers. He led the reserves in scoring and had at least 10 points for a third-straight game. However, his night came to an end with a few minutes left in the fourth quarter after he got into a heated scuffle with some Pacers players that ended with coaches prying players away. The altercation was physical enough that Watford has a chance to be suspended, but that isn’t a guarantee. He also isn’t a player to roster in most formats, but as the season winds down, he may continue to see his role expand.

It’s that time of year. Johnson is getting the night off Thursday for rest, which isn’t what fantasy managers want to hear this time of year. With Keon Johnson and Ziaire Williams already in the starting lineup with Cam Thomas out for the year, Noah Clowney could move into the starting lineup for Johnson.
BKN • Guard • #45

While Johnson’s fantasy ranking has been low for most of the season, the main culprit has been his field goal percentage. Shooting 40 percent from the field, he has been a 12th-round player in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. However, Johnson is ranked just outside the top 100 for those willing to punt that category. He’s one of the Nets who should not be at risk of getting shut down before the regular season ends, which is why Johnson is rostered in 29 percent of Yahoo! leagues.

Back in the Nets’ lineup after sitting out Sunday’s win over the Hawks, Williams has reached double figures in four straight and six of his last seven appearances. Rostered in 15 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has been a 10th-round player in nine-cat formats since the All-Star break. Being shut down before the season ends should not be a concern regarding Williams, making him worthy of a look in deep leagues. The Nets end Week 20 with two games against the Pacers on Thursday and Saturday.
BKN • Guard • #1

Russell scored a team-high 18 points on Tuesday, but the fact that he struggled from the field is unsurprising, given the opposition. Pestered by Derrick White or Jrue Holiday for most of the night, the Nets point guard shot 6-of-18 from the field. The good news for fantasy managers, especially those in category leagues, is that he only committed two turnovers and finished with a solid assist-to-turnover ratio. Russell has played 29 minutes in three of his last five outings, enough time to provide solid value when he’s on the court.
ATL • F • #10

Most of the discussion regarding Rookie of the Year has centered around Stephon Castle and with good reason. However, one must not overlook Risacher, who has made strides since the All-Star break. Shooting 47.7 percent from the field, the rookie wing has averaged 13.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers per game since the break. Risacher has not provided much value in the assist or defensive categories, which has limited his fantasy ceiling. However, the Hawks should be encouraged by his play over the past month.
ATL • G • #5

Daniels filled the stat sheet in Atlanta’s 134-102 victory and recorded his first 20-point game since March 10. The Hawks wing has been one of the best assets in fantasy basketball for managers needing defensive production, but he’s also a capable scorer. Since the All-Star break, Daniels has been a top-40 player in eight- and nine-cat formats. The Hawks conclude Week 20 with a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back against the Warriors and 76ers.

The showdown between Young and LaMelo Ball never materialized on Tuesday, as the Hornets point guard did not play due to a wrist injury. “Ice Trae” did what he wanted against the Hornets, surpassing the 30-point mark for the third time in five games. Over the past two weeks, Young has provided top-10 value in eight-cat formats. However, the negative for fantasy managers is that the Hawks won’t play again until a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back to end Week 20.

Johnson didn’t have the best shooting night on Sunday but made big plays to help the Nets secure a victory. He’s now scored more than 20 points in two straight games.

Johnson was effective as a scorer and playmaker on Sunday. He got to the charity stripe plenty to help him eclipse 22 points in a second-straight contest. The Nets sharpshooter is looking to generate momentum in the back half of March after being underwhelming at the start of the month. He’ll look to continue building upon his recent success against the Celtics on Tuesday.

Young has had a carry a heavier load on offense since the trade deadline and his scoring average is up to 26.1 since February 7. He’s assisted at the same rate, but his shooting accuracy is down across the board. He’ll have yet another chance to stuff the stat sheet against the Hornets on Tuesday.

Saturday’s game was the first for Brooklyn since it was announced that Cam Thomas (hamstring) will not play again this season. As was the case when Thomas missed close to two months with another hamstring injury, Johnson was inserted into the starting lineup. And Saturday was an excellent night to have him rostered, as Keon shot the ball efficiently and finished one blocked shot away from a complete stat line. Even if the shots aren’t falling, Johnson does enough to provide solid value when allowed to start. He’s worth rostering moving forward, despite Week 20 being a three-game week for the Nets.

Young had scored at least 35 points in his last two games and at least 20 points in his last four games entering play Friday. The 26-year-old point guard struggled to do much of anything on offense against the Clippers. Young had 17 points on 18 shots and while he had seven assists, he also committed seven turnovers. He only attempted four free throws after attempting a combined 33 over his last two games. Young will look to bounce back Sunday against the Nets.

No surprise here as Young was merely listed as probable with an Achilles injury since the Hawks were fined earlier this season after they left the 26-year-old point guard off the injury report.

Young is no longer listed with the quad injury, which is a good sign for his health. Atlanta is still waging their petty war against the NBA after the league fined them $100k for Young’s absence in November, which explains Young’s continued presence on the injury report with this Achilles injury. Trae turned in a 35/7/12 line on Wednesday and will look to stay hot on Friday.
