While Ighodaro has not provided much fantasy value on most nights this season, he has had more opportunities recently. The rookie has taken on the backup center responsibilities in the Suns’ last four games, averaging 8.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.5 steals and 1.5 blocks in 27.5 minutes. Ighodaro has recorded excellent percentages, shooting 77.8 percent from the field and 80 percent from the foul line. Nick Richards (10 points, four rebounds and one assist) remains the starting center, but he only logged 12 minutes on Monday. Ighodaro isn’t a player to add right now, but he’s worth watching for the rest of Week 20.

Though he didn’t get much help from his teammates, this was an excellent offensive performance from Bane. He set a new season-high for scoring, and it came after four consecutive games with less than 25 points. Bane scored over a third of the Grizzlies’ points, which wasn’t enough to get the job done against a balanced attack from Sacramento. However, he was able to step up with Ja Morant sidelined with a hamstring injury. If Morant remains out in Portland on Wednesday, Bane could be in for another big night.

With Ja Morant sidelined, Kennard took on the role of facilitator for Memphis. This was his second-straight start, but it wasn’t a productive one outside of the assist boost. This was Kennard’s fifth game this season with at least eight dimes, but he wasn’t able to reach his season-high of 11. Kennard has upside as long as he is starting, but the production hasn’t been there consistently for him. He is known for his deep-range shooting, so while the assist numbers are fun, Kennard not hitting a triple is disappointing.

Gillespie was Suns coach Mike Budenholzer’s choice to replace the injured Bradley Beal (hamstring) in the starting lineup on Monday. Unfortunately, he failed to provide much value in his 16 minutes on the court. Tyus Jones was solid off the bench, finishing with 15 points, three rebounds, four assists and four three-pointers in 27 minutes. While he hasn’t been as productive as many fantasy managers hoped during the preseason, Jones (61 percent rostered) is the only Suns guard worth adding with Beal sidelined.

Dunn has started Phoenix’s last three games, scoring in double figures in each. The rookie has been more aggressive offensively, and the defensive production has also been there. While Dunn did not record a steal on Monday after racking up seven in games against the Kings and Lakers, he did block two shots in the 40-point victory. His season-long fantasy value remains low, but Dunn has been a top-100 player over the past week. Rostered in two percent of Yahoo! leagues, he won’t be too hard to find for managers needing defensive production.

After shooting poorly in Sunday’s loss to the Lakers, Booker got back on track against an overmatched opponent. He’s scored 22 points or more in five of his last seven games and has been a top-25 player in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. With Bradley Beal (hamstring) out for the rest of Week 20, it will be the Booker and Kevin Durant (14/3/3/1 with one three-pointer in 26 minutes) show for the foreseeable future.

The Suns have decided to go with Gillespie to fill the void left by Bradley Beal, who will miss at least one week with a hamstring injury. While the move into the starting lineup gives Gillespie an opportunity to achieve fantasy relevance, Tyus Jones is the safer streaming play despite remaining on the bench.

Aldama was initially doubtful for Monday’s game, while Pippen was listed as questionable. Their absences leave the Grizzlies down another two rotation players, with Ja Morant (shoulder) already out. Vince Williams Jr. should experience an increase in playing time, and the Grizzlies will again rely on a backcourt of Desmond Bane and Luke Kennard.

Richards’ availability is more impactful, as he will be in the Suns’ starting lineup.

This timeline has Beal set to be re-evaluated on March 24, which means that he will miss all three of the Suns’ games this week and will likely miss their game against the Bucks on the re-evaluation date. Tyus Jones will likely replace Beal in the starting lineup, which gives him a boost in value for the rest of the week.

Martin didn’t see the floor on Friday, which was the first time he was cleared to play since being traded to Phoenix. However, he logged eight minutes off the bench on Sunday. Morris hasn’t played in over a month, though that wasn’t always because of this back injury,. Both players are expected to be available, but neither is expected to play a significant role, if they see the floor at all.

Richards is on track to play Monday night after returning from a sprained ankle on Sunday. He played 19 minutes against the Lakers, with rookie Oso Ighodaro taking on the backup center role. Ighodaro would only be worth a look if Richards were ruled out, but that appears unlikely based on the “probable” tag.

Unsurprisingly, Beal is out after experiencing tightness in his left hamstring during Sunday’s loss to the Lakers. While Collin Gillespie started the third quarter in Beal’s absence, he has not done enough to merit being streamed. Tyus Jones will also have added importance and should be ahead of Gillespie in the pecking order. As for Allen, Monday’s game will be the fourth he has missed with a strained foot. Royce O’Neale and Ryan Dunn will continue to play additional minutes.

Williams is available after sitting out Saturday’s win over the Heat, which was Memphis’ second game in as many days. He played 18 minutes off the bench against the Cavaliers on Friday, and fantasy managers should expect a similar workload for Williams. That isn’t enough to make him worth the streaming risk in most leagues.

Aldama has missed Memphis’ last five games with a strained right calf, and that number is likely to hit six on Monday.

Pippen is dealing with a sore left wrist, hence his appearance on the Grizzlies’ injury report. With Ja Morant (shoulder) out, a few more minutes may be available to Pippen if he can play. However, Luke Kennard has been the starter on nights when the Grizzlies are without Morant. Kennard is worth streaming in deep leagues, with Morant’s absence also raising Desmond Bane’s fantasy ceiling.

Morant missed Saturday’s game with a shoulder injury and now he’s dealing with a hamstring issue. The Grizzlies point guard will be replaced by Luke Kennard, who has started alongside Desmond Bane with Morant sidelined. Scotty Pippen Jr., who recorded a double-double on Saturday, will also have a higher fantasy ceiling.

Richards returned to the Suns’ lineup after missing two games with a sprained ankle. He only played 19 minutes, with Oso Ighodaro (four points, five rebounds and two assists) logging 22 off the bench. Since joining the Suns, Richards has been a fantasy disappointment, but being a starter makes him worth holding onto in deep leagues. With the Suns facing the Raptors on Monday, his status is worth monitoring. Ighodaro could be moved into a starting role if Richards misses that one.

Like Kevin Durant, Booker shot 6-of-17 from the field on Sunday. The good news for fantasy managers was Booker’s assist tally, making it two straight games in double figures in that category. Since the All-Star break, he has provided top-25 value in eight-cat formats. With the Suns losing Bradley Beal (hamstring) again, they’ll need more production from Booker as the team looks to chase down the Mavericks for the final play-in spot.

Durant and the Suns had a rough afternoon in Los Angeles, as they began with little energy and then lost Bradley Beal to hamstring tightness. KD had a subpar day shooting-wise, but fantasy managers can use the rebound production. Since the All-Star break, the Suns star has been an elite option in eight-cat formats. Durant will look to get back on track when the Suns begin a three-game Week 20 against the Raptors on Monday.

It has been over a month since Morris played in a game, but his upgrade to questionable ahead of Sunday’s game may mean he will be available soon. However, he hasn’t been part of the rotation when healthy, so even if he is able to suit up this week, it won’t impact the team’s rotation.

When the Grizzlies are without Ja Morant, Bane’s full game tends to be unlocked. That was the case on Saturday, as he shot over 50 percent from the field and finished two assists shy of a triple-double. Since the All-Star break, Bane has provided top 20 value in eight-cat formats and top 25 in nine-cat. The Grizzlies begin a three-game Week 20 in Sacramento on Monday.

Jackson was dominant on Saturday, having now scored 30 points or more on 12 occasions this season. That equals his tally from the 2023-24 campaign, a year in which JJJ was the lone Grizzlies star in the lineup on most nights. Jackson has been a top 20 player in nine-cat formats since the All-Star break, slightly better than his production for the season.

Kennard started Saturday’s game for Ja Morant, who did not play due to a shoulder injury. While the final stat line certainly wasn’t elite, Luke was far from a liability for deep-league managers. His value for Week 20, which begins Monday in Sacramento, depends on Morant’s availability. Kennard won’t need to be rostered if Ja is available.

Morant’s absence impacts the Grizzlies’ rotation and fantasy basketball more, as it opens up a spot in the starting lineup.

Aldama was also out Friday, but with Jaren Jackson Jr. back and the Grizzlies deep rotation of bench players, nobody appears ready to step into a fantasy-relevant role.

This one to keep an eye on. Morant has said previously that his shoulder has been an issue all season long, but he hasn’t been on the injury report for most of March. Coming off a 44-point performance Friday night, an injury to the 25-year-old point guard is the last thing fantasy managers want to see. Scotty Pippen Jr. could move into the starting lineup if Morant is out and would be worth streaming.

While he hasn’t been much of an asset in fantasy leagues since the All-Star break, Jones is capable of the occasional big night. Friday was one of those occasions, as he shot 6-of-6 from beyond the arc. The six triples matched Jones’ season-high, and this was his first 20-point effort since New Year’s Eve. Tyus’ hot shooting helped supplement Bradley Beal’s production, as he finished with 15 points, three rebounds, two assists, one steal and four three-pointers in 26 minutes. As long as Beal remains the preferred option to start, there won’t be much to gain from rostering Jones in most leagues.

Having fallen in the wing pecking order since late January, Dunn was able to start on Friday. And the rookie had a good night, racking up 16 points and four steals in 33 minutes. Dunn didn’t have a great night shooting the basketball, but the overall production was solid. Royce O’Neale was moved to the bench, finishing Friday’s win with nine points, three rebounds, one assist, two steals and three three-pointers in 21 minutes. While Dunn could be worth a look if he retains his place in the starting lineup, that isn’t guaranteed. And with the Suns only playing three games during Week 20, the schedule doesn’t work in his favor.

Suns center Mason Plumlee was not around for the second consecutive game for the conclusion. Tossed from Wednesday’s loss to the Rockets after getting into a wrestling match with Steven Adams, Plumlee was whistled for a Flagrant 2 during Friday’s game. His exit freed up minutes for Ighodaro, who recorded a solid stat line in his 32 minutes on the court. There’s no need to consider adding the rookie, who also benefitted from Nick Richards being out with an ankle injury. But he may have earned himself another opportunity to play rotation minutes in the near future.

Booker’s 13 assists were a season-high, and he finished Friday’s victory with his tenth double-double. The Suns guard, who has scored 22 points or more in four of his last five outings, has provided second-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. Booker will look to build on Friday’s performance when the Suns visit the Lakers on Sunday.

The Suns used a balanced offensive effort to take care of the Kings, with Durant and Devin Booker scoring 22 points apiece to lead the way. Fresh off of his first sub-20 point game in March, KD recorded a complete stat line in his 36 minutes on the court. Since the All-Star break, the Suns forward has been a first-round player in eight-cat formats, which aligns with his season-long value. The Suns end Week 19 in Los Angeles, as they’ll face the Lakers on Sunday.

Jackson Jr. didn’t appear to be on a minutes limit as he saw 28 minutes in his return from an ankle injury against the Cavaliers. The 25-year-old power forward was a little rusty on the offensive end as he scored 13 points on 10 shots including three 3-pointers. Jackson Jr. was his usual active self on the defensive end as he had four steals and two blocks. Fantasy managers can expect the minutes and production to only go up from here.

He also had just two turnovers and has now committed two or fewer turnovers in three of his last four games, which is another positive development for fantasy managers.

The 25-year-old point guard continues to deal with a shoulder issue, which has cost him some games, but he’s produced seventh-round value in eight-category leagues since the All-Star break. His turnovers have tanked his value in nine-category leagues and Morant turned it over another five times Monday. He’s had at least four turnovers eight times in his last 13 games, which isn’t going to cut it. Morant is outside the top-150 in nine-category formats since the break.
