Nurkic played 10 minutes on Monday, and with Mark Williams healthy, he won’t see a significant boost in minutes if he plays. If he is sidelined, Moussa Diabate would likely take on the extra minutes at the backup center spot behind Williams.

Kuminga, who has been sidelined since early January, will provide a new dynamic to the red-hot Warriors’ rotation. Kuminga hasn’t played alongside Jimmy Butler yet, and he will likely occupy a role off the bench. He may even have a minutes restriction for his first few games back. Gui Santos has filled out a sizeable reserve role recently and has played well, but his minutes may take a hit when Kuminga is back.

Hield came off the bench as usual Monday, but with Brandin Podziemski (back) out he was more involved in the offense than usual. The 32-year-old shooting guard had 20 points including six 3-pointers, but also dished out a season-high seven assists. Hield’s last game with more than five assists was back in November, making this an outlier we’re unlikely to see again soon.

Curry has now made at least four 3-pointers in six of his last seven games. He hasn’t missed a single free throw, going 31-of-31 over his last four games. Curry’s play has been rejuvenated since the Warriors acquired Jimmy Butler and he’ll look to stay hot over the rest of the season and fantasy playoffs.

Butler, undoubtedly the big winner of the trade deadline at this point, came off back-to-back games with at least 25 points to have his best game as a Warrior yet. The 35-year-old small forward dropped a triple-double on the Trail Blazers. Butler also contributed three steals on the defensive end. He’s had only one turnover in three of the last four games while playing at least 35 minutes in every game. Butler continues to trend upwards as we approach the fantasy playoffs.

After sitting out the second leg of Charlotte’s back-to-back on Saturday, Ball returned to the lineup against Miami. He fouled out of his last two appearances and had at least four fouls in five straight games, but that wasn’t an issue on Monday. What was an issue was his poor shooting, though that isn’t a new thing for him either. He was extra bad in that regard in this game, but he has shot worse than 40 percent from the floor in seven straight games. He’ll look to get back on track in Atlanta on Wednesday.

After missing Charlotte’s last two games, Williams was back in the starting unit against Miami. He got right back to work and was able to contribute value across the board to help the Hornets win consecutive games for the first time since January. Though availability continues to be an issue for him, Williams has been a fantasy stud when on the floor this season. Of course, a trade being rescinded because of your health is a red flag for dynasty managers.

Bridges has been on quite the tear over Charlotte’s last five games. He has scored at least 25 points in four of their last five, with a 23-point night mixed in. He has scored at least 35 in three of those, with a career-high 46 point night in there as well. During that stretch, he has averaged 33 points, 8.6 rebounds, four assists, one block and 3.2 three-pointers per game while shooting 50.5 percent from the floor and 92.5 percent from the free throw line. This was the first of a four-game week, with all of their games on the road. Bridges will look to keep it going in Atlanta on Wednesday.

After Monday, Golden State has two more games this week. Thursday against the Kings and Saturday against the Knicks. Kuminga has been sidelined since early January, while Monday will only be the second-straight game that Podz has missed. Quinten Post has moved into the starting lineup since Podz went down, but Kuminga hasn’t played since a month before Jimmy Butler joined the team, so it’s unclear what the rotation will look like when he rejoins the team.

Curry and Co. won a nail-biter against the visiting Pistons, and though Curry led the team in scoring, the win was a true team effort. Curry shot just 8-of-22 from the field and 4-of-15 from beyond the arc, but guys like Jimmy Butler (26), Gui Santos (15 points), Moses Moody (12) and Draymond Green (12) chipped in as well. Curry has now scored at least 30 points in eight of his last 15 games after doing so only seven times across his first 40.

On a team with Steph Curry, there’s only one guy you want taking a game-winning three-pointer - Draymond Green. Down 108-107 with 35 seconds left, Green nailed a wide-open trey to give the Warriors a lead they would not relinquish. He stuffed the stat sheet with a near triple-double and useful defensive stats as he usually does. but the timely three-pointer was a bit of a surprise.

Bridges was the team’s leading scorer once again, but this was a true team effort as Charlotte finished the game on 12-0 run to steal a win. Bridges is the last starter standing in Charlotte’s war of attrition, and he’ll continue to see heavy minutes and usage until the Hornets decide it’s time to take the tanking to another level. Until that happens, fantasy managers should count on huge numbers.

Diabate finished just one board shy of his career high as he logged his sixth double-double of the 2024-25 campaign. He’s been a worthwhile streaming option when inserted into the starting lineup, and he’ll get that opportunity when Mark Williams and Jusuf Nurkic are out.

Charlotte will shuffle its starting lineup yet again, with Baugh drawing his first career start and Diabate filling in at center while Mark Williams and Jusuf Nurkic are sidelined. Miles Bridges is the only remaining player in this rotation who opened the season as a starter, so expect him to see monster usage. Bridges scored a career-high 46 points in Friday’s loss to Cleveland.

Ball was underwhelming against the Cavaliers his last time out and Mark Williams didn’t play at all. The Hornets are being cautious with both of their young pieces, so it appears like Moussa Diabate and a backup guard could get spot starts against the Nets.

Nurkic is rostered in most leagues so he doesn’t count as a streamer, but the 30-year-old center did an admirable job filling in for Mark Williams against the Cavaliers on Friday. Despite a difficult matchup against Jarrett Allen, Nurkic was able to record a double-double. He played 28 minutes against Cleveland and showed once again he’s fantasy-viable when given adequate playing time.

The Hornets had the Cavaliers on the ropes in this one as they led by nine points with under six minutes to play. Bridges was a huge part of that effort as he dropped a career-high 46 points. Cleveland showed they were the better team as they closed the game with 23-13 run, but that doesn’t matter for Bridges’ fantasy managers. The 26-year-old small forward has been a top-20 fantasy value since the All-Star break and the good times continued Friday with a career game.

Bilateral back soreness forced Podziemski to exit Thursday’s win over the Nets during the second quarter.

Podz exited after playing just one minute on Thursday due to lower back soreness. However, it may just be a one-game issue. Podziemski could certainly be back to play Detroit on Saturday, but if he isn’t, Buddy Hield and Gary Payton II would be in line for more minutes. Gui Santos started the second half in place of Podz, and while that is a possibility against the Pistons, Kerr could opt to start someone else. It certainly wouldn’t be the first lineup change that Kerr has made this season. Even if Santos starts, his fantasy upside is limited.

Since his first few games with Golden State, Butler hadn’t been as aggressive as a scorer in recent games. However, he had some success on Thursday and had his second 25-point game since being traded to the Warriors, with the first coming in his debut for them almost a month ago. It’s unlikely that this continues to be the norm for him, though it wouldn’t be surprising if he started to pick things up with the playoffs approaching. Golden State will close out the week against Detroit on Saturday.

GP2 was sidelined against New York on Tuesday due to a nasal fracture, but he was back in the lineup against Brooklyn. Generally, he hasn’t been much of a contributor in fantasy basketball, but he was able to chip in some value off the bench in this game. Brandin Podziemski exited after playing just one minute due to lower back soreness, and while Payton II didn’t start the second half in his place, he was important in helping Golden State get the win. Managers shouldn’t expect this level of production consistently, but it was a nice bonus on a night with only six games.

What an impressive trip to the East it was for Curry. He led Golden State to a 4-1 record on the trip, and they’ve now won eight of their last nine games. During their last five games, Curry has averaged 34.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 7.8 assists, 1.2 steals and 6.4 threes per game. He started the trip off with a season-high 56 points in Orlando and closed it out with 40 points in Brooklyn. Curry has taken his play up a notch over the past month, and the only real fantasy limitation has been lopsided scores. He’ll look to stay hot with Detroit coming to town on Saturday to close out the week.

The Warriors are now 9-1 with Jimmy Butler on the court, as his presence on the offensive end gives the team an element it sorely needs. While the stat line wasn’t robust, he has provided top 100 value in eight- and nine-cat formats as a Warrior.

While the Warriors have benefitted immensely from the addition of Jimmy Butler, he’s done wonders for Podziemski’s fantasy value.

Podziemski shot 50 percent from the field and finished one blocked shot shy of a complete line on Tuesday. He has reached double figures in five of his last seven appearances, providing reliable fantasy production as part of the starting lineup.

Curry has made Madison Square Garden his personal playground throughout his career, and Tuesday night was no different. Moving to 12-1 as a pro (13-1 if you count the game he played during his final season at Davidson), the Warriors superstar led the way offensively with 28 points and nine assists, throwing in seven boards and two steals for good measure. During the first quarter, Curry appeared to tweak the right ankle he injured on Monday, stepping on the foot of a courtside fan. Thankfully, he did not have to leave the game and played an impactful 33 minutes. The Warriors end their road trip in Brooklyn on Thursday before hosting the Pistons two nights later.

Podziemski finished Monday’s victory with his second double-double since the All-Star break, and a return to the starting lineup has boosted his fantasy value. Since February 13, the second-year guard has averaged 14.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.7 blocks and 1.9 three-pointers per game. Those numbers have been good for top-75 value in eight-cat formats, far exceeding Podziemski’s production for the season as a whole. He’s rostered in 67 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that percentage should increase with the Warriors playing three more games during Week 18.

However, Curry did roll his right ankle during Monday’s game. While he said he believes he’ll be able to play, that isn’t guaranteed.
