Sent to Oklahoma City in exchange for Ousmane Dieng, who was rerouted to Chicago and then to Milwaukee, Plumlee was waived on February 4. While his addition to the roster gives the Spurs another frontcourt option in the short term, the veteran center is highly unlikely to affect fantasy basketball. Plumlee can be left on the waiver wire.

Williams spent time with the Rockets over the last few seasons and actually signed a four-year deal with them last March. However, he was waived over the summer and has been playing this season with the Long Island Nets. Williams went undrafted in 2022 and hasn’t been able to stick around with a team since then, but he’ll get the chance to establish himself with Golden State, though he will likely spend most of his time in the G League.

Team World lost both of their games to each of the Team USA teams by a combined total of five points. Wemby certainly can’t be blamed for the losses. He scored 33 of the team’s combined 80 points and was efficient while doing it. Heroics from Scottie Barnes and Kawhi Leonard prevented Wemby and Team World from getting a win, but Wembanyama was still one of the best players in the All-Star Game and appears primed to finish the regular season strong.

Moody enters the All-Star break having scored at least 15 points in three consecutive games. However, the lackluster production outside of points, three-pointers and rebounds limits his fantasy ceiling. Over the past two weeks, Moody has been a 12th-round player in eight-cat formats. Because the Warriors have been without Stephen Curry, there’s been more room for Moody to score. However, with Curry expected back immediately after the All-Star break, Moody’s rostership (18 percent, Yahoo!) may decrease.

Melton’s stat line on Wednesday was evidence of why he can be valuable to fantasy managers, even with the lack of defensive stats. The Warriors guard made five of his six three-point attempts and provided solid value in the rebounds and assist categories as well. Over the past two weeks, Melton has provided 10th-round value in eight-cat formats. Stephen Curry’s expected return after the All-Star break should not do much, if any, harm to Melton’s prospects in category leagues.

Green put forth one of his better performances this season on Wednesday, finishing two assists shy of a triple-double. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, nights like Wednesday have not been the norm for the veteran forward, and that isn’t considering the points category. Entering the season with an ADP of 100, Green heads into the All-Star break ranked just inside the top-150 in eight-cat formats. Hopefully, getting Stephen Curry and Kristaps Porziņǵis into the rotation after the break will enhance Green’s value by extension.

Unsurprisingly, Wembanyama encountered far more resistance on Wednesday than he did in Tuesday’s blowout of the Lakers. However, even with Draymond Green leaning on him for most of the night, the 7-foot-4 phenom still recorded a complete stat line on good percentages. Wembanyama continues to provide top-5 fantasy value regardless of format, and that won’t change anytime soon. Next for him is Sunday’s All-Star Game, where he’ll be a starter for the first time.

He was far more impactful against the Warriors, providing excellent value in his 29 minutes. Over the past two weeks, Johnson has been ranked outside the top-200, mainly due to a lack of production outside of points and rebounds.

Stephon Castle (pelvis) exited Tuesday’s victory during the first half, and it’s difficult to envision him playing on Wednesday against the Warriors.

Bryant reached double figures for the fifth time this season, and the 16 points represent a new high for the rookie wing. With Tuesday’s game getting out of hand by halftime and Stephon Castle (pelvis) not returning for the second half, there were a few more minutes available to Bryant. And his play has been encouraging recently. Tuesday’s effort was preceded by an 11-point, five-rebound, three-block effort against the Mavericks on Saturday. Bryant’s recent run means more for dynasty leagues than redraft formats, but it’s good to see him show off some of his upside.

To be fair to the Lakers, they were incredibly shorthanded for Tuesday’s game. A challenging task became impossible, as they could not defend Wembanyama. He scored 17 of the Spurs’ first 20 points, and the big fella’s 25 first-quarter points were the most in a quarter in franchise history. Wembanyama only needed to play 26 minutes to get his 40, sitting for the final 16 minutes of the blowout victory. That should bode well for his availability for Wednesday’s game against the Warriors.

Over the past week, Spencer has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats according to Basketball Monster.
