Hart finished one rebound shy of another triple-double in the Knicks’ comfortable win over the Hawks. Over the past two weeks, he has provided third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, which isn’t far removed from his season-long production. Hart and the Knicks end Week 22 with a home game against the reeling Suns on Sunday.

After a disappointing performance in which he only attempted six shots in a loss to the Cavaliers on Wednesday, Bridges was far more involved as a scorer on Saturday. The 20 points were two fewer than his total in New York’s first two games of Week 22, and Mikal has recorded five assists or more in four of his last six outings. The next test for Bridges will be to keep this going once Jalen Brunson returns from his ankle injury, which could be as soon as Sunday against Phoenix.

Make it nine straight games with at least 23 points for Anunoby, who was impactful on both ends of the floor in Saturday’s victory. According to Basketball Monster, he’s ranked fourth in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. Anunoby’s hot streak occurred at the right time for those who have him on their roster and are looking to win their leagues. The Knicks end Week 22 with a home game against the Suns on Sunday.

While there was a brief injury scare during the second quarter of Saturday’s game, with Towns exiting briefly, he was able to return and continue to dominate offensively. He’s recorded a double-double in eight consecutive games, with Saturday’s being the third of the 30-point variety. Given Phoenix’s struggles at the center position, Sunday could be another big day for KAT, especially if Jalen Brunson (ankle) returns.

Payne will be back after a four-game absence, but he won’t return to the starting unit. He’ll play the backup point guard minutes behind Delon Wright, which will likely push rookie Tyler Kolek out of the rotation. With Jalen Brunson set to return on Sunday, Wright will only have one more game of streaming appeal.

Robinson will miss a second-straight game, with both coming as part of separate back-to-backs. He should be back to play the Suns on Sunday, but Precious Achiuwa should fill out the backup center minutes against Atlanta. He had 13 points, six rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 21 minutes with Robinson out on Wednesday.

Brunson will miss his 15th-straight game on Saturday when the Knicks take on the Hawks. However, he should be back to close out the week on the second night of their back-to-back. Miles McBride (groin) could return for that game as well. Cameron Payne, who is probable to play against Atlanta, should split the point guard minutes with Delon Wright on Saturday.

Robinson missed Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers as he’s still not ready to play both halves of a back-to-back.

Brunson hasn’t played in nearly a month, and Deuce has missed seven straight. If one or both are able to take the court on Saturday, Delon Wright and Tyler Kolek could see their minutes reduced.

Following a two-game absence with a shoulder injury, Green was back playing his typical reserve role in Thursday’s win. He logged 19 minutes and had one of his stronger performances since the All-Star break. This was a well-rounded game from the Bucks as Green was one of seven players to score in double figures. Green’s floor spacing will be important for Milwaukee in the postseason, especially if Damian Lillard isn’t able to return.

Kuzma hasn’t had a productive season, and a change of scenery didn’t do much to help that. However, he has had some solid performances recently and was able to contribute a full stat line in Thursday’s win. Kuzma has averaged 18.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, three assists, 1.3 blocks and 2.3 threes per game while shooting 50.9 percent from the floor over Milwaukee’s last four games. The blocks are unlikely to stick, but it has been a solid stretch for him. They’ll need him to keep it up with Damian Lillard sidelined.

What a night it was for Antetokounmpo. This was his sixth-straight game with at least 30 points, and he set a new career-high for assists while recording his eighth triple-double of the season. He did all that while only turning the ball over twice. But the most astonishing part? His success at the free throw line. He has shot 21-of-23 from the charity stripe over Milwaukee’s last two games, which is a significant improvement over his 61.6 percent free throw shooting this season. Antetokounmpo has stepped up with Damian Lillard sidelined indefinitely, and he has two more games this week to pour in stats for fantasy managers, though he likely won’t continue to shoot 90 percent from the foul line.

Green will be back after a two-game absence, which means he should be back to playing a large role off the bench. Both Gary Trent Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr. will lose out on some minutes with Green back, though they will both hold value in deeper leagues.

Brunson has missed New York’s last 14 games with a sprained right ankle. Cleared to resume basketball activities on Sunday, the All-Star point guard will practice on Friday. The Knicks are hopeful that Brunson can play over the weekend, with the team visiting Atlanta on Saturday and hosting Phoenix the following day. Delon Wright and Tyler Kolek have handled the point guard responsibilities recently, but both will fall out of the rotation once Brunson, Miles McBride (groin) and Cameron Payne (ankle) return.

The Knicks will end this week with a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back, visiting Atlanta before returning home to host the Suns. And the team’s point guard rotation may be back to normal. In addition to Jalen Brunson potentially returning from his ankle injury, McBride and Payne “should” be cleared any day, according to their head coach. McBride has missed New York’s last seven games and Payne the last four. How much McBride or Payne would impact fantasy basketball during the final days of Week 22 depends on Brunson’s availability. However, with the schedule being what it is, there isn’t anything to gain from holding onto Delon Wright or Tyler Kolek if you’ve been streaming them.

By design, the Cavaliers funneled the ball in Hart’s direction, resulting in him attempting 19 shots on Wednesday. He made eight, but it was more important for the Knicks that Hart attempted those shots instead of passing them up. Hart’s fantasy value has taken a hit recently, as shooting 64.7 percent from the foul line over the past two weeks hasn’t helped. However, he’s ranked just outside the top-50 in nine-cat during this stretch. Hart’s increased usage on Wednesday may have come at Mikal Bridges’ expense, as he only attempted six shots and finished with eight points, two rebounds, three assists and one steal. Bridges will need to be better, beginning with the Knicks’ Saturday/Sunday back-to-back.

In a losing effort, Anunoby extended his streak of games with at least 23 points to eight, extending the most productive stretch of his NBA career. A top-10 player in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks, the Knicks wing has been outstanding recently. And with Jalen Brunson (ankle) possibly returning this weekend, there will be time to see how he and the “new and improved” Anunoby mesh ahead of the NBA Playoffs.

Towns returned to the Knicks’ lineup after sitting out Tuesday’s win over the 76ers, recording his 54th double-double. That’s 23 more than his tally in the prior two seasons combined, a testament to how being the lone big on the court has positively impacted KAT’s fantasy value. However, he did not record any defensive stats on Wednesday and was responsible for seven turnovers. The good news for Towns managers is that neither of New York’s final two opponents of Week 22, Atlanta and Phoenix, are as formidable in the frontcourt as the Cavaliers.

Towns is back after sitting out Tuesday’s win over the 76ers. He’ll return to the starting lineup, joining Delon Wright, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart and OG Anunoby. With Mitchell Robinson (ankle) unavailable, Precious Achiuwa will serve as Towns’ backup.

The Knicks are on the road for two games: Wednesday in Cleveland and Saturday in Atlanta. Brunson might return to game action sometime next week, and traveling with the team represents progress. With Miles McBride (groin) and Cameron Payne (ankle) closing in on a return to action, the Knicks’ point guard rotation may return to full strength in the very near future. Delon Wright and Tyler Kolek will continue to handle the point guard responsibilities.

Rollins has started six of Milwaukee’s last seven games, and the last few have been productive for him. Two games after he set a career-high with 20 points, Rollins set another career-high. Over the past two weeks, Rollins has averaged 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, four assists, 1.1 steals and 2.1 triples per game. That has him producing top-100 value in nine-cat leagues during that stretch, and with Damian Lillard out indefinitely, Rollins should be a quality option for the rest of the season.

Typically known for his blocks and three-pointers, Lopez was able to show off his skills as a passer on Tuesday. This was his third time this season finishing with six assists, which he has now done twice in Milwaukee’s last three games. It was also great to see Lopez bounce back after finishing with just five points, one rebound, one assist, one steal and one block against Atlanta on Sunday. Lopez has been a streaky producer all season, and this recent stretch was just another example.

Once again, Antetokounmpo dominated on offense for the shorthanded Bucks. This was his fifth-straight game with at least 30 points, which helped end a four-game slide for Milwaukee. His 11 dimes were also the most he has had in a game since January. However, what was most impressive from Giannis in this game was his success at the free throw line. It was entirely uncharacteristic for a player that has shot 61.1 percent from the charity stripe this season, and it isn’t something that managers should expect to continue moving forward.

A starter in the Knicks’ last three games, Wright has reached double figures twice. He matched his season-high with 12 points on Tuesday while providing solid value in the rebound, assist and steals categories. Rostered in two percent of Yahoo! leagues, Wright hasn’t done enough to justify being rostered in most leagues. However, he’s done enough to earn Tom Thibodeau’s trust and hold off rookie Tyler Kolek, who continues to come off the bench. Kolek played 20 minutes against Philadelphia, finishing with seven points, four rebounds, seven assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer. Wright and Kolek will handle the point guard duties as long as Miles McBride and Cameron Payne remain sidelined.

Robinson celebrated his 27th birthday Tuesday night with his best effort of the season, recording season highs in points and rebounds. Seven of the Knicks’ center’s 14 rebounds were of the offensive variety, and there was even an open-court Eurostep into a dunk during the first half. Add in the steal and blocked shots, and this was an excellent night for the nine percent of Yahoo! managers who have Robinson rostered. Filling in for Karl-Anthon Towns, he only played 21 minutes, which may open the door for Robinson to play in Cleveland on Wednesday. If so, this would be the first time he’s played both games of a back-to-back since returning from ankle surgery.

Shamet has played solid basketball recently, hitting multiple three-pointers in four straight games and reaching double figures in four of his last five. Tuesday’s performance was his best of the season, as the Knicks guard established season highs in points and three-pointers. Shamet did not provide much else that would benefit category league managers. Still, the minutes will be there as the Knicks continue without Jalen Brunson, Miles McBride and Cameron Payne. Shamet is not a must-add player, but he may be worth a look for New York’s Saturday/Sunday back-to-back among managers needing three-pointers in their matchups.

Anunoby continued his excellent scoring run on Tuesday, extending his streak of games with at least 23 points to seven. The Knicks forward is hitting his stride at the right time as the team pushes ahead toward the postseason. The lone negative for Anunoby on Tuesday was his six turnovers, but high-turnover nights have not been the norm. Over the past two weeks, OG has provided top-5 per-game value in nine-cat formats. The Knicks play three more games during Week 22, which is excellent news for those who have Anunoby rostered.

The return of Giannis Antetokounmpo also resulted in Rollins moving back into the starting lineup on Friday. The performance was arguably his best as a pro, with the third-year guard scoring a career-high 20 points. Rollins, who shot 66.7 percent from the field, provided solid value in the rebound, assist and three-point categories. He isn’t a great streaming option, but Rollins has a more straightforward path to consistent value with Damian Lillard (calf) out of the lineup.
